So very strange.

.
.
Finally awake.  I've been awake since 17:30.  It is now 20:18.  I didn't go down until between seven and eight.  I was trying to stay awake longer.  The house was 75°, outside was 60°?, but after hours of trying to get some of that cool in, it just wasn't working and I ran out of energy to continue.

I shut the windows and else, but left the fans going.  It was too warm upstairs, at 73°, so I set the second ac on and up to cooling.  I slept like a rock, in the good way.  It was 68° when I woke.  About perfect, after partially acclimating to late spring warmth.  I expected downstairs to be an absolute sweatbox.

It read 73°, upstairs... from the remote sender I keep downstairs.  Hmm.  Odd.  But number and feel can be quite different.  Still, not bad after a hot day.  Down I went.  The feel was quite different.  Not at all in the way anticipated.  It felt cool, almost chill?  Yeah.  So very strange.  A very good, initially baffling, surprise.

When I went out to see about the sprouts it all made sense.  A very cool, completely overcast, day.  Sitting at 58°, in mid to late afternoon, with no signs the sun had been out, yes... cool.  I immediately opened everything back up.  The air is thin.  The fans just aren't moving volumes of air.  It cools the body but not really the cave.  Atmospheric phenomena, I think.  At 20:21 it has only dropped a degree F.

I turned the ac's off upstairs, leaving one unit on fan, the interior fan going, and opening a few windows.  It was 70°, after turning one ac off first thing 'this morning'.  But with fan and open windows it should be cooler.  While at that I grabbed the dirty laundry hamper, collecting a few long shot misses towards it, and grabbed fresh clothes for an eventual shower.

All have been fed and tended.  Kitchen dishes were finally caught up, the sprouts have been tended.  I went with a can of baked beans and some of the ham.  Bad choice.  But hunger met availability.  Oh, but it was great.  I might as well have regular tacos while at it.  Ugh.

A shower in a bit, then on to cleaning the bathroom.  With the weather being this delicious, and sleep having been so good... as well pain is mostly gone... yes, work.  Try to get as much crammed in as possible.  This improbable collection of oddities must be utilized.  Later.
