Anything over 80 outside and I can't function. Inside I keep it between 70 and 72 depending on what it's doing outside. I sleep better when it's cool and I need to use covers. ;)

Over 68 with high humidity will do me in, Inside or out.
I can do 80/85 with low humidity. Here in Ohio, there is
no such thing as, lasting low humidity.:rolleyes: As Kitty says,
I'm an inside cat, in A/C.:D

I find that anything above 80 affects me. I can be sitting outside later at night and once the temp drops below 80 and the sun is down, I can walk sooo much better, it is soo weird. I also found last summer that I can't sit in the sun no matter what the temp is. I can't even sit inside with the sun shinning in on me otherwise I have a hard time getting up and walking. Last year I sat at a state track meet and it was only in the 70's with a nice breeze. I went to get up and walk to the restroom. My husband had to help me out of the stands, I had no balance and my legs didn't want to move---crazy. I always liked going to the pool and laying out. Not last year and I have a feeling this year will be the same.

I am worried about how I will get to the Y this summer. One of our cars has an automatic remote start so I can have the AC already on and the car pretty cool when I get out to it. My hubby is real good about going out and getting the car cooled down and pullling right in front of the house. He will have to make sure I use the van which has the remote start all summer if it is real hot. So far I have done OK. I have a cooling est but not really sure where it is. I wear it to the local amusement park. And dear hubby has never said anything about me renting a scooter for the amusement park. That's the only way I can do it. But I have really enjoyed doing my walking outside. That will have to stop for awhile.

Did you have the remote starter for the car installed on a normal car? How much was it? That sounds like a great idea! :). I recently moved to a place with no garage -- before I had a garage that was insulated to protect from heat so it was relatively cool enough to get into, even in the high summer temperatures. But now with my car parked outside a remote starter would be awesome!
