Cold air feels good on feet

[CasinoKathy]

Can't believe I just thought of this today. When driving my car and using the air conditioner I put it on full blast down on my feet and WOWIE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Felt so good- my feet actually felt ALIVE and stimulated. It was like as artic blast and boy I just wanted to keep on driving, but with the price of gas and nowhere to really go, I had to come home

Just thought I would pass this on. I always have to wear shoes and socks or I couldn't walk or balance, so my feet always feel on the hot side. Hope this helps some of you experience the "cold side" of stuffy feeling feet!

I tried this today and it was great!! Thanks for the idea! It actually was pretty cool out today due to it being overcast and rainy, so I didn't leave it on like that long, but the next hot day we get, I'm going for it.

Today at Walgreens I saw a cooling pad. It was $19. There was also a cooling sheet that you can put on your bed to keep you cool. It was $35, I think. I may have to get one of those. It'd be great to have, especially if the power ever goes out again (which it won't, because I've bought batteries and candles and flashlights and a battery-operated box fan and a hand-crank can opener. Murphy's law says we'll never have another power outage again, now that I'm prepared for one. )

Nice, that cold breeze on your feet! I know most of you Northern Hemisphere are sweltering at present, but I thought I'd mention a cure for the cold weather. It's freezing down here.
I can't lie on an electric blanket - a hot neck and spinal column just turns me into jelly - but a single bed electric blanket run across the bottom of the Queen-sized bed is just fantastic.
Warm legs, warm feet, and I can stand up when I wake up.

Cooling the feet works a lot like cooling the palms. It is a good way to cool off at low cost. Soaking your feet in a tub of cool water is great.
