Well Then

Well, I had to turn down my heat.

Or, I didn't "have" to, but I wanted to.  Needed to.

We had a run of chilly weather for sure.  And now it's shifted.  Rainy and "warm" (not Summer warm, but warm for now-ish.. warmer than it was.)

I woke up, or my neighbour woke me up a couple of nights ago and I was SO warm.  Windows open and still SO warm.  I got up to pee, and I checked the temperature and it wasn't just me.  It was nearly 22 C in my bedroom as opposed to the 17-19 it has been of late.  And yes, a few degrees can make a huge difference.  I threw all the covers back and fell back asleep with just a sheet.  IN NOVEMBER!  Talked to C-Dawg the next day and she had the same experience... woke up too hot, realized it was just that much warmer out than we were used to.

So the next day when I woke up to an overly warm apartment I turned my radiator all the way down.  Not totally off, but nearly.  I'm loathe to turn it off completely as I do NOT trust this system and would rather have heat than not (heading into Winter chills) but I also don't want to be stifling.  Sigh.  

Goldilocks of heat am I?

But yeah... warm spell for a while now... we'll see what's after that!

I know the climate is changing.  I also know my body is changing.  These two things seem to be working together to make me particularly finicky about temperatures and my comfort!
