Though honestly, having a couple of these vs. the kitchen towel trick? I use the kitchen towel unless I need to go in public in this sort of weather. |
I have two cooling bandanas somewhere, they are filled with orbeez, which absorb water and have a cooling effect. I completely forgot I had them. I ordered them last year, but they didn't cool enough for my liking. But then I was overheating so much last summer that nothing worked.
I noticed this year that I'm able to deal with warm weather a lot better than I have for years. Especially at night. Another sign that I've had the chronic appendicitis for a long time.
One more warm night and from tomorrow we'll get a couple of cooler days and nights. Hopefully the house will get a chance to cool down before another warm spell on Sunday and Monday (27-30C).
