The Heatwave Continues

Argh!!! It has been so hot. Am I getting old? I cannot remember suffering so badly with the effects of the heat. I choose not to sit in the airconditioned room most days. I know I will feel the contrast when I step out of the room. A girl at work said her electricity bill exceeded $1000- for the quarter. Ours is usually between $320-$360 range for this time of the year. Generally I sleep well in the nighttime, though. Just sweat a lot. Everybody does. Roll on Sydney Autumn. know I like you a lot.

Heatwave hits Sydney (while cyclone Yasi hits Queensland)

For nearly 2 weeks now it has been so hot in Sydney. The last week have seen temperatures hit over 40 degrees ( up to about 43 degrees yesterday). So hard to sleep. So hard to work. So hard to keep cool. We have lived in Sydney for 23 years and I cannot remember a hotter beginning to the year. But you do keep working. And you sleep the best you can. And you drink so much water. And the sweat just keeps dripping off you. Fortunately, there is the promise of a cool change this coming week.
