How hot was it?!?
Honestly, I couldn't tell you because I stayed inside my office ALL day. But if the temperature when I left at 6:00 pm was any indication of how hot the temperature had been earlier...then it was HECKA HOT!!!
As much as I love being home, I dreaded coming home this evening because I live in an upstairs apartment and the heat just stays TRAPPPED.
But I'm here now, and as expected...it's sweltering in this place.
So I imagine it's as they say, "Desperate times call for desperate measures" and dag-gonnit...I'm desperate to get cool.
AS a result of my desperation, I've had to break down and turn on my cooling unit. It really does a good job, but my only issue is that it only cools my kitchen and a bit of my living room. Where I need it most, is my bedroom. No such luck though. I'm still gonna use it though, even if for only an hour at a time. Not trying to have my electric bill skyrocket. Although as uncomfortable as my place has been, the increase will be worth every penny for a little bit of relief.
Last night I placed two fans in my room and tried to create a "cyclone" effect. All I really did was end up blowing the hot air around the room, and didn't get ANY
Tonight I'm thinking of taking a different approach. Might leave this cooling unit on for a while and just camp out in the living room. I mean after all...it's MY place...I can sleep where I want to. Right? One thing I know for sure is that I'm getting some sleep tonight!
How 'bout you? Let the DIALOGUE begin: Is there a heatwave in YOUR neck of the woods? If so, what desparate measures have YOU taken to stay cool?
Talk to me!
Til next time...
