Much better, as to interior temps.

I have, this year, been experimenting.  Actually, I experiment every year.  The thing is, how it works one time is not what works with a slightly different situation.  Say, same temps, but wind out of a different direction, or humidity being different, or perhaps it is overcast but all else is similar.  Everything is... different.  And the results, from the same rigging, as I call it, can vary drastically.

Today, I have everything closed, except the west window in the kitchen, and all the fans on, except the one in the washroom.  And?  And it is 87 out there, 73 in here, everywhere (downstairs).  Very... interesting, and nice, at 11:31.  Heck, even at the computer it is only 74, so just one degree above the general room temp.  This, I must admit, is awesome!

I haven't started working yet.  And, perhaps, I won't.  I may just goof another hour or two, then go on to bed.  Perhaps a shower though?  Maybe.  And, then, tonight, work through the cool, while also watering the lawn.  If I can get going, I may do some work.  Dishes, clearing the counters.  But maybe not.  I am enjoying the cool.  It's difficult to push off from that, having it be hot in here, mostly, for a while now.  But, it looks like I found a really good rigging... if too, that requires it get cool enough outside to get that indoors.

There are three countries on my shorter list.  I would want to visit them.  Do short stays.  Compare prices, check safety on the ground, learn and look.  Though, I have to say, there is one, sort of a surprise to me, that sticks out.  The other one I have some interest in is so very far away.  The other is stuck on stupid, with covid.  But... this one...  Two hints?  Beef being a major food of the people.  They run on a... later schedule?  Starting their days at noon, or later?  Running to dinners at midnight?  Long naps in the afternoon?  Plus, they have all four seasons.  And they have cool, even cold, temps.  I... think I need to cold.  Perhaps I could learn to deal with heat, even humidity?  I don't know.  Could see even following the cold, or heat?  If the heat is more moderate?

Well, and they are largely Catholic.  Yes, that... is a consideration.  Even if Catholics don't do well in tighter communities, I think in a broader context, we can get along.  We just... need our space, a bit?  Sort of like conservatives.  Interesting.  Oh... don't go on about the "pope".   A, I know... better than you.  B, there are far more conservatives than liberals in America, no matter what the news tells you, and you have Biden as the president.  So stuff it.  Or... commiserate?  But don't judge.  At least the church doesn't suggest she is a democracy, if the US really isn't.  So... there is that, too, in double and triple step.  *wink*

Oh... just looking, and thinking.  It's a more dangerous world, I suspect, than the others.  But danger, to some extent, isn't... as much of a problem.  Dangerous governments are one thing, dangerous crime is another.  As long as there is some mitigations for that.  I am, to some extent, a living mitigation to personal crime.  Yes, just... thinking out loud.
