Sitting here topless in front of the air conditioner...

wondering how I am going to survive next week, when it will get HOTTER. My air conditioner and ALL my fans are running trying to spread out the cool air a little bit. My cat had a heat stroke yesterday. (He's okay now, thank you). It's 85F in here with the air conditioner running full blast day and night and 85F is the OUTSIDE temperature right now!!!! My bedroom where the cat is sleeping is about 90F.
I dip my feet in cold water throughout the day. It helps a little more. Plus drinking a constant supply of ice water.

@Colonelmustardseed In this weather I don't dare to open my freezer too often...and the ice can't keep up with the amount of water I drink...but I do drink cool water all day. If I feel sticky I will hop into the shower again.

@4meAndyou drink a root beer float it keeps you cool
Maybe buy a bag of ice and distribute among bowls* in front of fans

@Bexsy Awesome idea!!! My grandmother used to do that.
@4meAndyou my grandmother and mother used to do that.

@Bexsy It was the perfect solution when there were no air conditioners available!

I think it's time to get your air conditioner checked out.
Nitedoc · 51-55, M
@4meAndyou I hope you do. Tell you what, if I win the lottery i'll give you a couple of million!
4meAndyou · F
@Nitedoc OKAY!!! That's a deal!!! 🤣🤣🤣
Nitedoc · 51-55, M
@4meAndyou Done!

Wow, it seems like you’re in the midst of a heatwave adventure! ☀️ If anyone can turn this sweltering experience into a cool escapade, it’s you! Perhaps it's time to imagine a winter wonderland or even dream up a career as a professional sunbather? 😄 Stay hydrated, and give your furry friend some extra cuddles! 🐱❄️

@Carlam Thank you. That was a nice little lift from the heat misery!
Carlam · 70-79, F
@4meAndyou Glad I could lift your spirits! 😄 Stay cool and comfy!

Hope it's better today. It's been similar weather here in NC but we're due for rain and hopefully some relief. Topping out around 100° here for the last week or so
JohnnyNoir · 56-60, M
@4meAndyou very muggy. There's a line of storms well to the East of us but I'm praying they start popping up later where I live. I may have to trot out my rain dance late tonight if it doesn't
4meAndyou · F
@JohnnyNoir Well, here's wishing you loads of nice rain, and some cooler weather, my friend!
JohnnyNoir · 56-60, M
@4meAndyou same to you.
JohnnyNoir · 56-60, M
Will need confirmation
I was going to say use ice but topless, that might not be the best. lol

Please stay safe and drink water. Glad your kitty is okay.
@4meAndyou of course. Had to tease you a little but the heat is no joke. Please be careful.
4meAndyou · F
@Sojournersoul We will. The cat has his own little fan now, set at floor height.
@4meAndyou nice. Cool kitty and boobs. Sorry, could not resist

Even with whole house A/C I woke up at 6:30 this morning because of the humidity. I can only imagine your situation as it was 80F here but felt like 94F!
4meAndyou · F
@SageWanderer I am sitting in the ONLY cool spot right now...but if I stretch out my hand behind me I can feel the hot mugginess.

It might be time for a de-humidifier.
SageWanderer · 70-79, M
@4meAndyou I do have a dehumidifier with my HVAC unit but it only works at a set temperature and the basement takes time to reach that combination of heat and humidity. A dehumidifier may help, at least in the last hour my house has become comfortable.
masterofyou · 70-79, M
The weather seems to be getting even warmer especially up north of Binghamton, New York... keep cool 😎
4meAndyou · F
@masterofyou Thank you! I am trying!
masterofyou · 70-79, M
@4meAndyou enjoy your day the best you can, don't let it get you down....

@silkydrawers I live in an apartment building with hundreds of other people. Although there is a back yard barbecue area, it's extremely public...so I'm afraid I won't be going outside with very little clothing...🤣

Well the cold air coming from the west next week....hopefully you can survive
4meAndyou · F
@FreestyleArt Going to be in the 90's all next week. It won't break for another 12 days.
I'm glad your kitty is OK.😿
4meAndyou · F
@UnderLockDown Thank you. He is going to leave me on Saturday, so that he can get the medical care he needs...and eventually he will be be rehomed.
@4meAndyou You won't have a kitty anymore?!😿😭
4meAndyou · F
@UnderLockDown He is VERY fast, and VERY skittish, and VERY diabetic. He needs a Mommy who can catch him, or sneak up on him, at least, and give him his shots. He also needs a Mommy who can afford to pay $115 a month for insulin and syringes, $120 a month for kitty litter, and $360 a month for cat food. It's possible that the cat food and kitty litter expenses might gradually decrease, once he gets his insulin. But right now, he is always hungry, always thirsty, and pees buckets...and not always where he is supposed to.

I think it’s hot everywhere.
4meAndyou · F
@JustDJ76 Just wish I had two air conditioners...but I don't think it's allowed in this building.
JustDJ76 · 46-50, M
@4meAndyou That’s not good. I’m thankful mine is working good at the moment.

@JoshJ Remind me never to visit! I'll bet it's humid, too!
Adrift · 61-69, F
We are hitting temps at 105.
Hot and dry.
4meAndyou · F
@Adrift I spent summers in Nebraska when I was a kid. I remember 102 and 103, but we didn't suffer with it because it was so dry.
definitely gotta keep the boobs cool.

You had me at TOPLESS !!
KingofBones1 · 46-50, M
Sounds like you need a better air conditioning unit for real I'm sorry about the cat but I'm glad he's okay although the idea of your sweaty breast is kind of hot but I hope things cool off for you later and I hope the two of you will be fine

@Delightfulydelectablydelicious No ceiling fan here...but I have FIVE normal fans going in the living room, one in the bathroom, and two in the bedroom!
@4meAndyou point the fans towards the windows, it pulls out the warm air 🙌
4meAndyou · F
@Delightfulydelectablydelicious Will do! Thank you!
Mbingh01 · 61-69, F
What part of the country are you in? Here in North Carolina not only is it hot, but humid too. I don’t go out unless I have to! Sorry about your cat 🥲
Kstrong · 56-60, F
Drink atleast 64 ounces of water, thats without the extreme heat, more important for you to atay hydrated
candycane · 31-35, F
I used to close off rooms I didn't use a lot and it stayed alot cooler in the main rooms
4meAndyou · F
@candycane If the litter box weren't in the bedroom, I could do that. But I don't want that aroma in the living room.
