I hate the heat. Anything over 80 degrees is just too hot - my legs start to spasm and I start getting weak/fatigued and then the cognitive stuff starts. It progresses the hotter it is.

Since it is now over 100 here, I take 2 to 3 showers a day with my last one being shortly before bed time. The shower lowers my internal temp and keeps me cooler for a longer period of time. After my before bed shower, I turn the fan on and lay in bed. It does keep me cool. I also drink a lot of ice water. It seems to help too.

Stay cool everyone!!!
