Summer is officially here!



Its here..no doubt about it. A constant 45degC everyday with the high of 50degC on some days.
Its hot! in school is red flag day everyday, its indoor games for the kids these days. My plants are all kerepot and some did not survive...due to lack of water ( its too hot to go out to water them ) and heatstroke. I keep telling myself that its not that bad and just deal with it and today while i was washing dishes the tap water was boiling! it was seriously hot. Even to wash the kids i need to constantly check the water temperature. In Doha, one need a water chiller instead of a water heater. When we 1st moved in the house it was in Oct and even then the water was warm, so i complained, why doesn't the water get cold when i turn the tap to green and the answer was, ma'am the house doesn't have a chiller and the water that comes from the pipe is of this temperature....say what!. Ok fine...then winter came and we were ok, but now its just too hot and it when a cold shower is soo essential. Today we asked the handyman to turn of the water heater at the tank,technically now when we turn the water tap to red, it should give us somewhat warm water instead of boiling water. Its yet to be tested as we need to finish the water in the tank 1st. Lets see if it works....i pray that it does.
