Cut the thermostat over from Heat to Cool. While we had frosty weather last week, we’re beginning to get warm in the day, and stuffy at night.
On a similar note, last weekend we ordered new blinds for the front master bedroom windows — wooden blinds (Eddie Bauer Home, Oak, Honey) from 3 Day Blinds (at the Great Indoors). They should arrive late next week, most likely. Once in, we’ll be able to relatively easily open up the front windows in the evening and still block out most of the light.
The original mini-blinds kind of fell apart a year or so ago, so we interim replaced them with some very cheap vinyl blinds which are, essentially, unopenable and translucent. Grr. Thus the upgrade. ‘Twill be nice.
(Interestingly, just found that Eddie Bauer has actually closed its Home stores, but 3 Day Blinds is one of their licensors.)
