The weather here has been like a Japanese summer in Hokkaido, hot, sticky, and humid, with no breeze. We don’t have aircon so we’ve been sweating it out and turning on our small evaporative cooler at night while we sleep, which by the way does not work very well in humidity, but it’s a small relief.
So in saying that, you can see why i’ve just been too hot to sit down and type anything.
Yesterday we went to an ex-coworker of mine’s daughter’s birthday party at the pool just round the corner from where we live. It’s amazing that in the two years we have lived here, we’ve never been there! It was really good. They have 2 big outdoor pools, and 3 smaller kiddies pools, with playgrounds, bbq’s, slides, and even a gigantic aqua tube. It’s only $3.60 for unlimited fun which is a bargain. Yasu and i have decided to go there as much as possible for swimming as we both love the pool and want to get fit.
Tonight i’m starting to learn belly dancing with a friend of mine, so i’m looking forward to that. I’ve been wanting to learn for quite a while.
Tomorrow i’m back to my psychic development circle, then thursday i’m starting a women’s group that do different things together once every thursday. This week it’s aqua aerobics so that should be fun!
Since having my second round of therapy i’m feeling so much more energetic and have had the energy to do anything. I cleaned the house sunday morning (imagine that, and me not a morning person!) before spending the day with the kiddies whizzing them around in the pool, and came home and still had energy to cook and clean. Wow. I couldn’t have done any of those things in this heat before.
Wonderful! :) Hope you all have a great week. When the weather cools down i will be back. Til then, take care :)
