Running hot and cold

Yesterday, after I went out in the afternoon to take care of @Maggiepie I came home all sweaty. The car was hot, even with the AC blasting. But my front room was nice and cool. I went into the kitchen, that had cooled off a bit because the roomie had turned on the AC so we could cook later. I loaded the dishwasher, but didn't run it because I knew we could get a few of the supper dishes in it. Then I went back into the front room and sat down to really cool off, and don't you know, I got cold. Now, I had the window unit on 76ยบ and "cool" instead of "energy saver." So, I turned it up to 78, but was still cold, so I put it on energy saver. Soon I was hot again, so I put it back on cool, waited and was still hot, so turned it down again. I ended up doing this all evening! Very annoying, up - down, up - down... These aren't hot flashes, I'm past that already, I don't know what was going on...

In this big old house we have central air conditioning. We were cooling (and heating) the entire downstairs for my sister 24/7 and upstairs for us only overnight. In the afternoon, even with the good, newer a/c running downstairs it gets to feeling hot. My solution is to run fans to move the cooler air. I try 78 most of the time.

We've gone with window units because why air condition a whole house when we are only using a few rooms...
