I can't wait for winter where I will feel better. I have central a/c, a window unit in the bedroom that I keep on 65 degree when I'm in there, a celing fan on high, and a tower fan on high directed at me only. I don't use blankets or anything else on my bed. My poor hubby has all the blankets and still stays cold most of the time. I feel sorry for him, but I can't live with any heat.
I can't take any heat either. I thought it was the meds, but that isn't the case. If it's more than 65 degrees OR there is any humidity, I freak out, feels like it's 190 degrees. My lady has slight anemia, and is freezing all the time. It can be 80 degrees in here and she is wearing a blanket, complaining to me about wanting the AC on. Lotsa fun.
