There I was a few weeks ago, complaining about the heat wave that made me hot, sweaty and cranky, wishing it would just go away. And then it did.
For weeks now it has been raining almost daily. Which was fine at first, because it allowed me to sleep at night without marinating [...]
Still not happy, weatherwise
Melting Point
Looks like we’re having another heat wave over here. Saturday was the hottest 3rd of July in over 60 years from what I hear. Really fantastic. Not.
I’m not a big fan of hot weather anyway, but now I’m really getting fed up with the damn heat. We don’t have air conditioning in our house, so [...]
Spam Attack

On Weight Loss and Body Image
Losing weight is easy, but feeling the change in my body seems to be harder than I thought.
As I mentioned in my last post I have dropped 6 kg (12 pounds) in the last 2 months.
For somebody who is already reasonably slim this would be a huge weight loss. For somebody like me, who isn’t, [...]
