AHASRADA Posted July 15, 2012 Share Posted July 15, 2012 Ditto. We bought a portable AC unit yesterday; first time we've ever had AC of any kind in our home. We just couldn't take it anymore. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ghee Posted July 15, 2012 Share Posted July 15, 2012 How about a pressure cooker? The humidity here is SO BAD that the stuff at my yard sale felt damp. I had the money stored in a cardboard box and when I counted it last night IT felt damp. If you shower, then go sit outside for a minute, you need another shower because you are sticky. My barely wavy hair manages to puff up and do weird things every day :glare: I'm kind of over summer, and I'm a summer kind of girl. This year has stunk, though.

*Michelle* Posted July 15, 2012 Share Posted July 15, 2012 I'll take the oven over the sauna. It's hard to breathe sometimes, with the air so saturated. Then, when it does rain, it's just long enough to create a steam layer on the pavement. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ruby Rose Posted July 15, 2012 Share Posted July 15, 2012 I just bought a very powerful fan! Its low is higher than my old fans high. It's a lifesaver! Fan at Walmart Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

astrid Posted July 15, 2012 Share Posted July 15, 2012 I dont' either, Denise. And truthfully, the deeper into menopause I get, the less I can tolerate the heat. Just a half hour ago I removed my bra. Dh just looked at me like, "you okay?" For some reason I just couldn't stand wearing it another second. UGH. Need some rain and cool temps! astrid Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeannie in NJ Posted July 15, 2012 Share Posted July 15, 2012 come on Denise, don't you just love sweating from just sitting typing on the computer and heaven forbid if you go outside and do anything then it means stripping out of all clothes including underware, taking another shower and clean dry clothes . Another one here wanting summer to be over as we don't have central air and only one wall unit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alpidarkomama Posted July 15, 2012 Share Posted July 15, 2012 Neither do I!! :) But I'm really enjoying the last of the ceiling fans we had installed today. Two in the living room, and one more in the only bedroom that didn't yet have one. Makes a huge difference! :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Denisemomof4 Posted July 15, 2012 Author Share Posted July 15, 2012 We have a/c, ceiling fans, window fans for when the evenings cool down. My hormones still keep me hot. Friday night I threw on my swimsuit and went swimming at 10:00 at night.:D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Impish Posted July 15, 2012 Share Posted July 15, 2012 I ordered a portable a/c unit that should be here Thurs (although, all things considered, prob not til next Mon/Tues). Thankfully, we've had a break in the heat, even a bit of rain last night. Hoping it lasts until the a/c unit shows up! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

melissad2 Posted July 16, 2012 Share Posted July 16, 2012 I hate it! It's so dang humid here and the thermostat is broken on our ac and the guy won't be here to fix it til Monday or Tuesday. I borrowed two window units and a fan and I'm still sweating. I can't wait til FALL! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LisaKinVA Posted July 16, 2012 Share Posted July 16, 2012 I hear ya! Two weeks ago, our power went out due to the storms (it was out for 4 days). A day and a half later...our a/c broke (blew 2 fuses). 5 days later...the a/c broke again (two more fuses...we were down to one replacement). My husband ordered new fuses last Sunday from a company 200 miles away. The fuses left SW VA for PA, then went to WV, then to Hagerstown...and finally made it to Fredericksburg on Friday...but FedEx wouldn't let us pick them up. They will be here on Monday. The month of July, we have been without a/c for twelve out of 15 days...tomorrow will be day 13. Maybe this is God's way of helping us keep our electric bill down?
