Amen to that! Although, I must say, I think it was close to 100 ° in the
warehouse today... I still have a 'heat headache' and was getting to the
point where I no longer sweated today... I'm keeping track of my fluids - I
drank just over 3 quarts of water. I'm probably going to have to start
bringing some 7-up or Gatorade to work, too. Just water alone isn't going
to cut it.
