Question: What is life like in rural Minnesota?
It was 65F when I left for my walk this morning. I had the good sense to wear shorts but I still came back soaked with sweat. I’ve been inside for most of the day with non-functional air conditioning and am having headaches from the heat. It’s 10 degrees cooler outside but we also have 94% humidity. This is just evil.
My neck is still being painful so I went to see my P.A. today. I was given more muscle relaxers (oh joy!) and a referral for a month of physical therapy. I’m not happy about the PT but if it works, it will be nice.
Everything is in the 80’s today – heat and humidity. And it’s getting overcast. Blech. What I do, when I get too hot to think, is take an ice pack, wrap it lightly in a towel, and put it on my head. Don’t laugh, it works! Just as when you’re cold, you put on a hat (hands are cold? put on a hat. Froze toes? Put on a hat.), if you’re hot, and put ice on your head, you’ll cool down nicely. The head is where most of our heat transfer takes place, so make it the temp you want, and the rest will fall in line. =)
