3:30?

Again, my area was 73°, while the rest of upstairs was 68°.  That really is unusual.  It is two nights running, a unique streak and as singulars.  It was 62° outside, and 73° downstairs.  It stayed around 75° well after dark tonight.  Something in the wind, which also persisted until late.  But why only three hours, pretty much exactly, down.  I need more sleep.  So tired.

I will tinker on machines, try to wake, become active.  If possible, a load or two of dishes.  If not, as I go back to bed, perhaps a load of laundry in, or at least folding.  In a worst-case scenario, back directly to bed as I fall.  It is a... reasonable night.  No pain.  I am just so TIRED!

Hopefully some of that cooling can be brought in.  It is so warm, or feels it.  For me, 73° is, usually, a bit too hot.  Tonight is typical in that way.  On the good side, I missed my last dose yesterday.  Not noticing I almost missed it all at about when starting dinner.  While I can start at 25 mg of carvedilol, usually, mostly, I am deathly afraid of double doses.  Won't kill me... so far... but it's like a severe beating with a baseball bat (from experience, if I ended up winning that one), mixed with the flu, on top of intermittent organ failure.  But, five to seven hours apart is easily safe.

I'll... see.  Later.

  1. It's not just you. This oppressive heat drains all my energy. Even with the air conditioning running at full strength I can feel it squeezing in from all around me, like an enormous hand.

  2. Yes! You do get it. And, cold in the winter. But I can often sleep through much of winter. Not possible with summer heat. I am surprised I haven't slept to frostbite, to be honest. Oh, the better I am doing with diabetes, the easier it is to handle extremes. With definite subpar heat handling at best, if I can do -40° with relative ease.

    Then again, my feet and legs are cool at 75° in here. So long as I don't eat too much or do too much effort, I can keep that. We have no humidity here. Iowa eats me up and spits me out. Especially since my mother finds the 80°s comfortable, added to the humidity. You also have humidity, nyet? You can keep it!

  3. Definitely have humidity at this end. I keep telling myself, though, that Lee County isn't nearly as bad as it got in Houston (and still does). I wouldn't wish a Houston summer on anyone.

  4. Always with the increments. Such is life.
