The heat has really intensified! The past week has seen temperatures in the upper 30s; I think one day it reached 40 °C. I'm not sure about other places, but here the humidity has been around 50%, which makes it a bit easier.
I still don't have air conditioners in all the rooms. I have mine, which really helps. David's is working at the moment, he went outside and kicked the machine, then it worked.
We tried to get the old machines working, but no luck.
But somehow we are surviving!
It's not easy, but if I can get up early to clean and start lunch, it really helps! Also, I give everyone an area to clean. Then I stay in my room with the air conditioner on for the rest of the day.
I realized the other day that this is the first summer that I haven't had an air conditioner in the main rooms. A few times I haven't had air conditioners in the bedrooms, but I've always had them in the rooms that are used a lot, the kitchen, dining room, living room, and the rooms I used for teaching. I've often wondered if it would be possible to live without air conditioning! Now I know it's possible, but not nice!
I keep telling myself that it's almost autumn! That the temperature will go down, and soon I will be complaining about the cold! For me, the cold is a lot easier to deal with!
Last week I went shopping with Christopher. We found these cute soft toys. I thought this one looked like Christopher!
