How do you beat the heat in summer?
If you aren't lucky enough to have air conditioning then get a spritzer bottle and put tepid water in it and mist yourself with it. You can also put a cool rag on the back of your neck or run the undersides of your wrists under cold water and your temp will go down. People seem to feel that icy cold drinks make them cold, but in actuality a cup of coffee or tea will cool you off faster. If you can't sleep at night then puta lot of ice in a medium plastic basin and run a fan over it so the fan is pointed just over your body. It cools you right down! Wear ONLY COTTONand nothing with synthetics in it as synthetics hold the heat in. If you wear nylons in the summer, don't! Get some of those new lotions from your drug store than give your legs some color.
