To bed, earlier?

Ah, but I want to cook food.  Hungry?  No, but... need food.  Should eat.  Pork roast, and chicken, to see me through several days.  Drumsticks.  I'll need to brine the chicken.  That... really helps, with chicken being questionable these days.  Brining really helps.  No, I have been using fresh chicken.  Right from the store, never thawed (by me) until I go to use it.  

I suppose I could get the pork roast baking, first off.  Then, put the chicken in with it, after it has brined, then been dried and spiced.  The place will smell divine!  And, I could shower after the finishing the chicken, and getting it in.  Should work well enough.

I wrote a post, and meant to send it out, but that just didn't happen.  The gist of it, was that I was having to practice with when, and how much, to use the ac.  The ac hasn't been on, upstairs, at all.  I'll turn it on a few hours before bedtime.  Then maybe shut if off when I go up... if it is cool enough outside.

Down here, I started out with very light ac use, and through the day needed to add more.  Was getting lightly heat sick?  There is a boundary between too much and too little.  Both have problems.  Some of the problem with finding that happy medium is that there are too many variables, of which I can't measure most myself, or well.  And I can't trust weather stations.  Beyond being wrong about the temps by five to fifteen degrees (always to the high, so it isn't accidental), they can't be trusted with other measurements they are purported to present.

There... isn't a perfect way to do it.  Trial, error, give and take, and little shifts.  Hopefully, acclimation will allow me to handle more.  But that may not be possible.  I have survived this heat, previously, with little or nothing to help me through.  But that... wasn't healthy, or good, for me.  Nobody should suffer like that.

Well, on to get food going.  Maybe, if I have a potato, I'll put one in.  Not keto, but I need food, and it has been days since I ate a somewhat regular meal.

Oh... and... thanks for the help.  You know who you are.  Maybe who I am.
