Wet sheet in front of the fan, close windows and shades in the morning, open them only when the temperature outside is down, put insulation on the walls and the roof (especially the roof), wear loose clothes, drink often and not freezing water… and stop complaining. :)(raised in hot country at a time when home A/C was rare).
YEP! no AC here in UK home’s and for the last 5 days I have done most of what cabalonrye suggested ( was stationed in a hot country for 2 weeks ) no fans tho. I couldn’t find a punka wallah anywhere ;)
This is why I retired to Maine from NC six years ago. The heat was just to oppressive most of the year. When it’s cold I can always put on more clothing….when it’s hot you can get only just so naked.

Show up in only your underwear. With that group she could change her mind real fast.

Cold showers. But that’s best before bed.
