Hi Sue, So glad to know that I have a book-end! You have described me to a tee. I am cold a summer and wear long sleeves and a light sweater. I never wear shorts or open toe shoes as my feet are like ice cubes. In the summer I have a blanket on and the ceiling fan going for my husband.
I do drink a lot of water and that does help some with the sweats.
