I'm split on the treadmill, too. I ended up just creating a basic rule that if I get up in the morning and there's already a heat advisory out for our area, I run inside. Otherwise I try to get outside. I figure there's a difference between keeping your heat acclimation and flirting with heat exhaustion.
The blackout curtains we bought at Home Depot are quite long. We just bought curtain rods to put them up. The house already had blinds, but they are kind of cheap and crappy. At one point many years ago, one of the cats chewed all the blind cords, so now some of them can't even be lowered all the way. We didn't try putting curtains over the rec room sliding door because it faces north and there's almost never any sunlight or moonlight shining on that side.
