Yesterday I finally decided that I had to work harder to keep the house cool. The heat was draining all of us. It wasn't below 85 after noon. So I took action!
We made sure the AC was on from the morning light on. We didn't open the curtains. We only had two of the lights on in our house (we live in a one bedroom studio type house.) We kept the fans on high and the humidifier blowing out cold humidity. It worked! By dinner time yesterday I was able to use the oven for dinner because it wasn't too hot in the house. Wonder how I kept the house from heating up by the stove? Well, I faced a fan towards the oven to blow the heat back at it. I covered the top of the stove and the door of the oven with a blanket. And it worked beautifully! I miss the light. But we feel better.
Sometimes you just have to accept what you have and work with it! Where there's a will there's a way.
