The heat is killing me, I'm also here in southeast ga, the heat isn't even the worst of it, but it's sooo humid and no breezes . Even the pool we bought for the GB is more like a hot tub right now, so it isn't helping to cool anyone down. I never thought I'd be happy for a sick GB but at least it's keeping her inside during the heat. The poor thing got dehydrated at some point and mommy's diet of quick foods and not much liquids got a blockage started in her little belly .

She's still bouncing and running around, doctor's cure for it is lots of juices, fruit and whole grains. No cheese, milk, bread or processed foods. Which works great for while she's at my house. In this heat about all I want to eat is fruit and salads. Nothing cooked... Too hot for it. But I do worry about the GB when she goes back home to mommy. My DSD doesn't have much money nor experience in budgeting so getting the kid what she needs at home, I find myself sending the GB home with little baggies of fruit and veggies from the garden.

i live in FL & have to be very careful in the heat. i need to do things in the AM & schedule appts early in the day. i drink a lot & also find that cooling collars work well.

if i don't plan well i can get almost paralyzed. i get very weak & fatigued.
my vision can even change. it's just bad. and, running too many errands where i have to get in & out of the car is bad for me.

take care out there guys. ps....walmart has these cooling collars & i thought they used to be about 5 or 6 dollars.

I too have the a/c set to 72!!! I even drop it down to 70 sometimes. Of course, I'm so afraid of it freezing up on me though. I have 1 ceiling fan and 2 stand alone fans. I have them running too. Well, I turn the living room fans off at night and turn the fan in my bedroom on when I go to bed. I also have been showering before bed as it cools me down and helps me sleep better. I have been doing that for a while now and it really helps.

I am now in hibernation and will come out only if necessary.

I'm in GA and it's been in the mid 90's here for the past week. This weekend is supposed to be cooler (mid 80's) with lower humidity. I have been staying inside. I even cancelled an appt I had yesterday because of the heat.

Up to 98 degrees here, not including the heat index... so I have a very unhappy and ancient kitty who wants to go out to play but is being kept inside for the day. Funny how it's not only myself that needs to hibernate from the cold but, I have to force it on my 17 year old cat as well . Well just what 6 more months of this and we'll be into December where it might be a little cooler... Praying for an early and freezing winter
