we survived, return of the double baggage

 Evening


Did anyone in the UK sleep last night? I have double bags! woo my double under eye bags are back!! It has been such a long time since I slept through the night that my insomnia look is back~ yup I have 2 bags under my eyes, if I look down I can see them!

Anyway last night

It did not cool down, it was 30c with humidity. I would have killed for an AC. It was depressing doing all my skin care and it was HOT. The liquid was hot and this morning the liquid was warm so I have put them in the fridge to reset

so we went to bed but I was very much feeling 'whats the point' Jack some how managed to get off to sleep. How!? I of course didnt. I was moving constantly as I was aching but also the bed felt 1000c were I was laying on it so I kept moving to a new position for 'cooler' bed sheets. 

I heard it begin to rain and within the first 2 minutes I could SMELL the rain. It was beautiful.

I got up, took more pain relief, and sat with the back door open, on the inner porch step and listened to the rain, had warm breeze on my face and looked at art on instagram. shortly, the rain stopped T^T it was very short lived, 30mins most. So I went back to sleep and did manage to get some sleep but it wasnt great

the alarm went off and I about through it out my window. I was so done with life. Jack got up and opened everywhere up. We unfortunately can only have our bedroom windows open at night as we live in a bungalow and so, we dont wanna get robbed if we leave the other windows open as it would be easy I think. so the house gets HOT. I eventually got up. I felt sick, achy and just done. I was gonna just sack the day off and have the day off due to heat exhaustion but its more hassle that its worth so I decided to work from home.

I had a shower as soon as Jack left as I felt GRIM. It did wake me up a bit too. I did feel better for it. I could feel everywhere warming up again. I had Oz in with me whilst I worked from home. I drew this today for work for a  display but didnt finish it til this afternoon as I didnt work solidly for 4 hours this morning. Mum came over for a brew at 11am. She was telling me about how they didnt cope ether yesterday. I told her that Jack got in the car at 4:00pm yesterday and the car said 47c and his sun glasses were melting.

I had lunch and went to bed for an hour. I had felt sickly all morning and generally rough so I thought some sleep would help. I woke up an hour later and was sweaty, it had warmed up >.> I felt like crap, literally no better for some sleep.

I finished the picture for work


I saw Jack briefly, he came home, went toilet, got changed and went back out for the science evening out. It was an escape room and mexican food. so I havent really seen him today I hope hes having a nice time and isnt too late home

I had my dinner, I tried making thai curry differently and it was ok a bit more citrusy that usual

I managed a 30min weight work out which felt like an achievement to do, had my 2nd shower of the day and now I am sat with the face sheet on which has been in the fridge with my skin care. I have made another 'ice cream' to have later as I have earned it as Jack is out for food tonight


I have got a lot done today tho I think to make up for yesterdays long day of hellish nothingness

so I did laundry, made the girls cage up for their stay this weekend, washed up twice (jack wont be in to wash up, made a curry, worked out, made jack's lunch for tomorrow. Just felt much more productive. I might even wrap Jack's present tonight as well if I am in the mood.

I am sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo grateful it is cooler this evening and may even RAIN tonight


tomorrow 

its school, mum and Jack have both said to me separately that if I still feel rough tomorrow to not go into school but I shall see.

42c.....T^T

 Evening


Did anyone in the UK sleep last night? probably if you have fitted AC in your bedroom but for 99% of us we suffered and hoped a fan would solve our heat issues. It did not. My god it was hot when we went to bed. We woke up loads and when the alarm went off I had so much sweat on my whole head it was like my hair was wet from shower

I didnt feel great this morning, I felt sickly, headachy and shivery. shivery...how? it was 25c at 6:30am Jack said I might have a bit of head stroke so he made a gross medicine drink that replenishes your sugars and salts. He made me promise id drink it as in the moment I think I would have bought it up

He left for work, I was instantly worried about him. He text me to say the prep room was already 32c. Sweet jesus.

I did eventually pick up once I had that drink and something more to eat, I did have spend some quality time on the toilet. Yeah I think I did have heat stroke. My body is very fragile.

I got a bit of work done but loads. It was hot and my brain felt like fried eggs. Jack told me not me not to worry as no one was doing much at school. 

During school apparently kids were sent home saying they felt unwell. no one should have been in school. it reached 42c today. Jack said the car was 47c when he got in it at 4pm


Mum came over, I gave her the option of coming, she had lunch which was nice then she left around 1ish

usually I would have a sleep around then and I was planning on catching up on sleep I had missed out on during the hot night however, the heat ramped up. I did not know what to do with myself, going from floor to floor trying to find a cooler spot but none such existed 

there was a breeze outside that literally blew warm air

I have done my best for Oz, I even sheered him a bit more and fetched him grasses and plants, fridge water, I have put some of his blankets in the freezer and I will see if he wants them later. hes only just started panting and its not hard panting. I literally can not do more for the bun, short of dunking him in cold water which would kill him. 

I hope he will be ok tho he does worry me

mum has tried her best for the girls too bless them, she sent me photos and they look like dead pigs


I finished a painting last night which was a nice little victory. I dont think I will do anything tonight as its too hot, my head hurts and so does Jack's 

told him we should sack tomorrow off if we both feel crap cus we wont sleep again today will we.

i feel so let down by school, they try and get as much out of you for nothing. we have not been looked after at all.

Its suppose to rain tomorrow, i feel like I will be raining tears of relief when it does


makes me wonder if the weather has killed anyone off during this week

No one wanted to be there

 Evening


I managed to get some sleep last night. Weirdly we both woke up for 2 wees but didnt notice one another getting up in the night. I didnt want to get up for school


So this morning my anxiety was through the roof like I was gonna be having a blood test or something. I was a wreck in the car - poor Jack driving. I was anxious about how hot school was gonna be and it making me feel unwell. I didnt want to feel unwell or get heat stroke.

We walked into the prep room 7:45am    28c

Yup

It was hot and quickly reached 30c and that was after we have opened up the windows and put the fans on. No one wanted to be in school today, unless youre the head teacher and you have a big room to yourself with AC. The kids didnt wanna learn, teachers didnt wanna teach. We had emails from parents refusing to send their children in.

The whole day was pointless. 

I had a headache and felt sick but it was just the constant humid heat.

I got my jobs and Jack suggested I take work home for tomorrow and work from home


I got home and my first priority was to open up the windows and bring my lad in to see if he was ok. He was ok actually and I have been giving him fridge water, carrot and apple today. Along with going out in the heat to pick him greens. He is well looked after and the curtains are drawn so sun cant get him. Hes just been flopping round the lounge but at least hes safe. Mum  has been doing her best for girls also

Mum came to see me for lunch then she left me and I went to sleep for almost 2 hours, i didnt do much once i was up as it was too hot to focus on anything. It is 38c or something crazy. I had a cold bath and made sure I was out before my hot Jack got home and aw bless him he did look warm. I put stuff on his skin to calm it down. Last night watching RWBY i massaged his hands and feet for him


I might try do some painting later, I just keep feeling sick and headachy but I dont wanna waste my whole day.


tomorrow

guess i am working from home. its suppose to be like 40c tomorrow. at least jack will have the car and I can keep Oz safe all day.

Sunday, 17 July 2022

its gonna be a rough couple of days

 Evening


It's hot 

need I say more

Tomorrow its gonna be like 40c so more like 50c in the prep room. We will die. I am concerned about keeping my bunny cool. He is my priority and so far I have been totally on it in keeping him cool and hydrated. It's gonna be 25c at 5am in the morning....ouch....

so yeah I just gotta get on with it then come home to care for Oz. I hope my Jack copes when the sun hits the prep room TT^TT my poor Jack....


suppose to rain all day wednesday. we will all be wishing for wednesday to come


wish me luck

it can't be 40c next week, it just cant be

 Evening


Man why is it so freakin' hot!? ahhhh no more please no more

and next week, I could not believe my eyes, its predicted to be 40c.....the hottest on UK record. No one will survive next week. There has already been some school closers, is mine on the list? eh no. course not. The school across the road from ours however has said they closed monday tuesday. Obviously they have it hotter over the field to us. Or more likely, they actually care about staff well being >.>

I will be going school. Jack told me I can work from home. But I only do that if I am not good. I am gonna go, if I die on monday I will have tuesday off sick. simple. cus whatever degree it is outside, stick 10 more for the prep room. we have asked for AC because we have chemicals that have lower boiling points (some as low at 38c) and so we need to safely store them. But when we asked we got the response of "no you cant have AC because you might use it when its not needed therefor costing us money" BS. they just dont care about us and dont wanna spend money on us. Someone will get poorly from the heat.


So school was ok and after school I went to a shop with mummy for just householdy things nothing great I was so tired tho as I needed a sleep but I dont get to go out with mummy much and it was also a lot cooler yesterday. today is 28c tho >.>

I didnt exercise yesterday as I literally had nothing more to give. Jack was home late due to crappy buses, the night went on and on I was still doing stuff at 8:20pm. I didnt fall asleep til gone 11:30pm


This morning, Jack got up early and did some gardening with Oz before it got too hot, I was in bed til 8:40am. We had breakfast together which was nice then we both got on with chores before it got too hot. I cleaned Oz out and cleaned the bathroom.

I did some painting and got red paint on my white sleeve. To say it is stained and ruined is an understatement. I am not happy

I went to bed after lunch as I needed sleep

did not expect to be asleep for 2 hours tho....my god I must have been tired. 

Then pretty much just chilled out and painted and stayed hydrated. Cant do much else as its boiling. I have kept Oz in and given him water and plants and anything he wants 

I did dinner and watered the garden. 

Think we are about to do our food shop its 6:20 so probably leave at 6:30pm and go spend some time in AC supermarkets~~

I might do some exercise when i get home or I might just dive in the bath I shall see

tomorrow it is suppose to be hell. I am unsure what we will do tomorrow......


Why is it so hot T^T

Thursday, 14 July 2022

Slightly cooler today -_______-

 Evening


I slept pretty well last night even tho Jack wasnt in bed. I think it helped as it was cooler and so I didnt need to have the fan on. I find it hard to sleep with the fan on. Its too noisy and stuff. 

I felt tired this morning tho


School was still stuffy and humid despite it being a bit cooler

I got a lot done and had to trial a practical with head of biology which was unexpected and made me very nervous. It actually went fine. I got to talk to Julia's daughter again ^^ she talks to me and jack loads but barely speaks in front of her mum. So strange. Julia doesnt criticise. ever. My dad criticises everything I say or do, hence why I dont speak in front of him. Makes me wonder why she doesnt speak in front of Julia. Its sad. Her confidence is on the floor. So I make the effort to talk to her when i can ^^ 


I went home for lunch but got fuel on my way home >.> my car is so unwell. That gearbox is gonna break any time soon....I just know it....My dad knows and is gonna check the car out at the end of the month as its due an MOT then anyway but yeah I am half expecting to just die on me. I hope not as its been my best car EVER I love my car but its an automatic and doesnt like changing gears....

I saw mummy for lunch and she had kindly bought my Ozwald in. She had brought Jack a really heavy and dense sausage roll for his dinner, I will do him some chips with it.

I fell asleep for an hour then i got up and worked on Jack's birthday card cus I really need to do him one before we break up. I then made a cake ready to go in the oven. I had my dinner with Oz. 


Jack has been having a late session at school's warhammer club. As I think its the last session of the year? possibly? not sure. So hes not finishing til 5:30pm but he doesnt think he will get out til 6pm due to clearing up and putting the classroom to right. So when hes on the way home I will put my cake in the oven then get his dinner ready for him for when hes home as he will probably be hungry. He will probably be home just after 7pm I am guessing.

Im gonna get my exercise done whilst he is travelling so i can serve his dinner up when he arrives and go grab a bath~


Tomorrow

is friday!!! Woohoo! and I believe Jack has his friday gaming session. Ahhhh another day of less Jack-time for me T^T

I told people how special I am

 Evening


I got some sleep through the night but it was another hot one. Its going to be 34c on Monday T^T 34c and no house in the UK has AC and hardly any buildings ether have  AC. Its gonna be HELL.

I felt like i needed more sleep tho I have to say but I got up and put my BBQ sausage stew on. I had Oz in but took him outside for 20mins as it was cooler out there


School was lovely and humid sweet jesus that place is death

I happily told a few science teachers about my assessmenty thing yesterday I finished with "the whole thing made me fell very special" to which Luke and a physics teacher said "you are very special" together XD and head of physics commented that "thats one word for it" XD as im always calling him Autistic. To be honest my relationship with me makes me laugh as hes like 50 odd and very reserved and proper but somehow I have brought him down to my level, he actually plays with my humour and its good as I never see him like that with anyone else, even Jack, who works closely with him. Jack says I have been a bad influence on him XD

head of science also came to ask how I got on

I practiced a practical with  head of biology and I put her display up, its not finished yet


I came home and mum had arrived she went to bring loaf in, we had lunch then she left as she could see I was tired. I was just really tired. Turns out she went to sleep when she got home!! I am putting it down to the weather.

I got up and sat in the lounge on my laptop as Jack wanted me to make sure no more ants were coming and so far so good. Actually havent had an ant yet! Oz is still being kept inside so he cant play in the ant powder as we are not sure if it toxic to pets and not taking that chance.

I did a 30min work out then had a cold bath, I got cold!! I was so cold but it was good to bring my body temperature down. Jack came home and had the bath he was very grateful for. We had dinner and hes got 10mins to get to his brother's gaming session on time, he has already had the reminder text message....makes me determined to get him to gaming on time!

I will be by myself tonight but thats fine. i havent done any painting yet today so I will go do some painting. Oz can loaf in here I am sure. I cant face watering my garden tonight. I have done it every damn day this week -______- I also got bit on my leg whilst working out and that hurts when I walk on it. Best be better tomorrow


tomorrow

just school, nothing special, counting down the days as I think 26th is the last day!

Mia says the bridesmaid dresses have arrived
