Hot - Hot - Hot

This is our weather forecast for the week.  I know everyone else has been having it too.  July is our hot month here and it's July.
What to do to stay cool?

•  drink lots of fluids,  
• open the house at night to pull in as much cool night air as we can. 
• close the house up as soon as it starts to warm to hold the cool air in
• close the blinds
• turn the air (AC) on if you have it
• make dinner in the crock pot or out on the grill
• if you need to 'bake' do it in the Dutch oven outside or if you have one of those cool sun ovens this would be the perfect day 
• fill the kiddie pool in a shady spot and dangle your toes or if you're really hot, get in!
• sit in the shade during the hottest part of the day or stay in the house 
• drink lots of fluids again
• if you don't have AC run a fan
• if you're still hot spritz yourself with water and sit by the fan

Have a great day!!! And stay cool.
