Hot in the City

17/1/2015

Hello my lovelies and how are you today??

Well I guess the title of this post is giving it away, it is hot 38 C or 100F, so we have been hanging out in the house under the aircon vents we are heading to the beach later it is just to hot to go there now.  I love summer but I don't love skin cancer, for those that are overseas Australia has a really high rate of skin cancer so the bronzed beach grower is becoming a myth.

It has been really hot for the last couple of days so we kinda have to get everything done by 9am before the Easterly wind stops and the heat rolls in, and we haven't even reached the hottest part of summer yet.
Ok so Australia Day is coming up,so what is everybody up to?  We have a first birthday to go to south of the river and after that I have no idea, I am thinking that we may go to the beach and see if we can catch the fireworks.  Even while living in Perth ( as a 20 something) I never saw the Fireworks not sure why I think it may have had something to do with the fact that there is heaps of traffic, people full of booze and bad manners that really put me off.  It is a different story now in that it has become such a family event, there are area's that you can have a drink and it is patrolled ( heavily) by Police.
I just don't think I could spend all day sitting in my spot waiting for the Fireworks to start, I will watch it on TV, it will be a bit more comfy and I don't have to put up with other people - yes the heat is affecting my happy disposition.

Next week I am going to the school to get the kids sorted - uniforms, classes ( hope to meet the teachers),booklists.  Then it will be off to the shops to get shoes,bags and school supplies, I am looking forward to it but I'm not only because the shops are going to be packed, the kids are going to be whinging cause they are bored.  What I might do is leave them with Darren and go on Thursday night if I time it right I will get there when most families are home having dinner.

Ok I better go as I have to get the food ready for the beach,
chat to you tomorrow
