68...

.
.
Last I looked, outside.  Not all that cool.  Indoors, up here in front, it is only down to 78.  Actually, anywhere in the house is 77, save maybe upstairs?  Ugh.  I just checked, 68 outdoors.  It just isn't cooling off.  Though there is a decent wind going, with a breeze and wind, interspersed with minor gusts.  So, that makes it feel cooler.  But, really, it just isn't cool.

There is a reasonable chance it will cool enough for me to get to some work.  I keep trying.  I am just beyond my capacity, from even the mid 70s and of course on up.  I overheat just thinking about working.  I am taking care of Sassy, making sure she has food, clearing her litter, giving her attention.  Even for her, until it gets to the low 70s, being around me makes her too hot.  The fan(s) would help, but the sound is just too much... well, and the blowing.  I get that.  I'm a cat people.  I don't hold that against her.

Oh, I received a call.  One of the potential buyers.  Suggesting they may be able to go there.  The one I dropped the big number on?  Makes me nervous.  Then again, probably not.  But, who knows.  That, now, talking with them, or this or that... gives me a bit of an upset stomach.  I should know more within the month.

Though, regardless if I am staying or going... I want to get the house cleared.  A lot more things to go away.  Boxes of notes, many books, clothes I haven't worn in forever, if ever?  Objects, parts, pieces, for the house, vehicles... one no longer owned, furniture I won't get taking... so many things to go away.  Though, mostly, I need to sort what I do want to take.

I really do think a travel trailer will be bought.  Though, initially, just for putting stuff in.  I would like to develop the inside for hauling including tracking for tiedowns and some fixed tiedowns for very specific zoning of areas, insulate very powerfully, run basic electrical with easy access runs, add in a brown water and fresh water tank, and a few other things.  As well, I hope to be able to get upgraded tires and extra clearance from the start, maybe a more powerful fan at the start, and some better things.  Adding them later is often much more expensive, time-consuming, and possibly of lower function and quality.

I am even thinking of considering a new vehicle... F-250, Ram 2500, that sort... to make sure it can haul the thing, with water, batteries, and such.  Plus, as a toy hauler, maybe a motorcycle, or an atv, for alternative motation, or a way to town if something goes wrong.  Spooky.  That's a lot of work, a lot of money, a lot of time, and else.  Still, maybe.  Though, with some care, the Xterra might be able to run a smaller rig, especially just used as a belongings carrier alone, for a while.  Right now, bigger trucks are costing nosebleed fortunes.  There are used, but those are pretty nasty too.  I'd wait for prices to lower, in either of those markets.  It's... coming.  Layoffs, even at tech.  But everywhere.  And no more stimmy money for those big or pricey items.  I suppose they could try to dump repos in the ocean, to try to keep prices ups, but that eventually won't work... one way or the other.

Just thinking, while I wait for the world to cool.  The freezer top is the priority, leading to dishes.  And several loads of dishes are next on the list.  Then counters in the kitchen.  Later.
