I was going to post yesterday but later in the day I started feeling a bit off, like I had a touch of the chills and a bit achy. The same tonight though not so bad. I'm feeling ok in the daytime. It's just in the evening it's happening. Not sure if it's the heat or what. Currently it is raining and I'm not complaining as the temperature has dropped to 70F/21C which I think is the lowest it has been day or night in a little while. It's been too hot for my taste and I'm not the only one moaning about it lol. The humidity in the mornings has been about 99% which means it's sticky and sweaty without even moving. The walks have been shorter.
There was a lovely sunrise the other morning and this morning some lovely cloud formations
It makes going outside when it's that sticky worth it.
Inside the house not a lot is happening. I have been popping up to the craft room but it's just too hot up there to do much of anything or stay for long. I am still getting rid of things, though admittedly I think the totals are down this month. I was going to make a last-minute dash to get rid of things this month, but I don't think it will be happening.
I can't remember if I shared or not, but poor daughter has the dreaded Hand, Foot and Mouth disease. She has sores in her mouth and a terribly sore throat. Baby A is still home from daycare. I do hope they will feel better soon!
How is your week going?
I hope you all get better. The humidity was down today so I spent a lot of time outside.
ReplyDeleteThank you. I'm feeling a bit better today. It's been a bit cooler here and I am enjoying just having the windows open!
DeleteAre those 'nacreous ' clouds in the lower picture?
ReplyDeleteHeat and humidity were the worst when I lived in Indonesia as a teenager. I'd suddenly go cold and clammy and feel a tide of blackness rise up. My mother would make me drink a very little salt and some sugar in cold water, she had the same thing happening to her. I don't know if that would help; a cup of bouillon would have the same effect (I use Marigold vegetable stock powder)
I'm not sure about the clouds. I don't know a lot about them. They were just beautiful though.
DeleteOh that's a thought about the drink. It could be the humidity. It's been horrible. It's certainly a lot better today and I am feeling a bit better. The weather can be really draining.
Ooh, your poor daughter. I didn't realise adults could catch hand, foot and mouth disease. Do you think you might have a mild form of it?
ReplyDeleteShe sounds like she's had it quite badly this time! Her husband got it the last time Baby A got it but neither daughter nor myself got it. We wondered whether perhaps I do have a mild case of it!
DeleteSo sorry to hear that your daughter has a bad case of the Hand, Foot, and Mouth disease. I hope she gets better, soon. You might have been exposed to it, too, and have a mild case of it. Or, you might be feeling heat exhaustion and dehydration. Maybe try some diluted fruit juice with a little salt added to it.
