Default dealing with the heat

Hi ya'll.
Erin, have you checked out the cooling vests yet?
I've been kinda really involved with my "other issue" so I didn't order one yet.

The other day when it was about 75 and very sunny here I wanted to go out and get some vitamin D (sun). I stuck an icecube in my cleavage , put some ice in a cap, took a glass of icewater with me and went outside.

It worked! Not real attractive with the ice melting between my breast - I'm sure it looked like I was sweating my butt off, but at least I could stay out there longer than 2 minutes!

I don't get hives or anything, just totally, completely wiped out in a flash!


Try this and see if it helps. If it does, you may want to make that vest a priority.

I avoid heat as much as possible. I break out in hives and welts in the heat. I just do my best to avoid it, but it sounds like I should try the cooling bandannas and stuff. I use sunscreen and still get hives, I know its weird. I just wear really light long sleeves if I go outside on really sunny days. Yeah most of time its just not possible. Too hot!
