Glad all is well, Pickles!

While it was 108°F here yesterday, it was decent in the garage with a couple of fans and keeping the doors shut. Air quality has been better lately. Fires are more under control and wind mostly going the other way.

Carburetor went in ok... but... now it is worse. I think I missed one of the vacuum lines, or one came off somewhere. At least I hope so. That beats the alternative, meaning something is really wrong. Holding out hope that it is just a leaky vacuum hose. Now the challenge is to find it. Ugh.

The one day off was good. I was able to get the old car registered "on time" at AAA to avoid a bunch of fees

No matches again. 12k for day 7.

Glad to hear the good news, P. It's been lovely in the afternoons here in the high 70's, but it dropped below 50 last night (barely, but anything below 50 is cold!). Temps are expected to be similar for the next few days.

70's sounds awesome, and 50's overnight sounds great! One can open the windows (if not smoky!) and sleep with nice fresh, cool air.

Well, that'll make for interesting totals from now on? Eesh. I'm not sure I've ever hit match 3 on day 8 before.

Glad to hear that the air quality is getting better, Blue! Maybe some cooler temps for you soon, too? Hopefully you can find the leaky hose!

There's basically no good day 8 total.

48 is way too cold for open windows! You're pistachios, almonds, walnuts, pecans, and macadamias!

<50°F not too cool at all for an open window... Then again, I grew up in Colorado where is was super-chilly at night in the wintertime. Irrespective of that, I may very well be nuts. Certainly seem to be cracking up, and not in the good, bust out laughing, sort of way... Nah, it's not that bad

I don't think I'd leave the windows open under 50, either. But then, I grew up in a hot humid climate...sooo.....

matched 2, 17k

My heat is set to 63. That's cold! Fleece pants, t-shirt, fleece shirt, plus fleece button-down (and regular socks layered with fleece socks) cold.

I can't imagine trying to sleep if it were any colder than that.

I will agree that 63 is chilly for daytime. Great for sleeping. Wintertime, I set the thermostat at 60 overnight. Of course, I like to pile on the blankets/comforter. Hot summer night sleeping is difficult because I really prefer the weight on me at night. Those weighted blankets look awesome, but I have yet to buy one.

19k and sinking pirate ship bg (yay!)

I can't stand heavy blankets. I can never have blankets/sheets tucked into the bottom of my bed - they're too heavy. I mean, I'll use warm blankets, but not too many. It hurts my knees.

I think last winter we kept it at 64. I'll see how I fare with 63. So far it's been tolerable.

Thankfully the lows are going back into the 50's starting tonight. Wed. will have a high of 83 with a low of 57. That's nearly perfect weather (just a little too chilly at night - we need a smidge more humidity).

Speaking of humidity, I need to order a new filter for my humidifier and clean it for the winter. It's in the living room. I'm a little worried about the pros/cons re: COVID-19, but it causes less of a breeze than the HVAC does, and higher humidity is supposed to be worse for the virus. And the riskiest housemate (right now) doesn't spend basically any time in the living room, really... (She is mostly only here to sleep in her room with the door closed.)
