Beat the Heat.

I like to drink water from a glass to cool off from the heat.

We eat more sandwiches in the summer or switch to "sandwiches" made from lettuce leaves or spinach leaves rolled around meat without bread. Both of those are good with chicken or beef. (Just get a large leaf of lettuce or spinach and put a slice of meat and a little mayo on it and then roll it up. Use a toothpick to hold it in shape while you eat it.) You can dip a washcloth in cold water and wear that around your neck and refresh it when it gets too warm to help you. Eating watermelon slices is always nice in hot weather since they taste good and help you stay hydrated. Berries are also a good choice for snacks in hot weather. We stay in the house during really hot weather but we also run the air conditioner, too.

I have the air set just enough to keep me from sweating inside the house. I also wear as little as possible when possible. I also stay in when it's extreme.

We need the air conditioner going to beat the heat. We turn it off when there’s a nice breeze during the day, but turn it back on at night. We can’t sleep well otherwise. I hope you can get some relief.

Take a cool bath.

We don't have to ever beat the heat Raquel Sometimes they do on England But never in Scotland

I feel for you, when summer comes around, even spring, my electricity bill gets very high. I just can’t take the smothering heat and humidity. I put my bottles of water in the freezer, and let them get ice cold. That helps along with putting a wet wash cloth on the back of my neck.

When the temperature goes up, I avoid cooking, we have cold meals. We are lucky where we live, we do not need AC.

Sometimes if there isn't A/C I put a damp towel round my neck. If I have to be outside, I wet my hat. That helps a lot.
