Here There and Everywhere

Expat wanderer

Forecast: Hot and Crabby

It isn’t my fault. I was born in the cold winter months in Alaska, and to this day, I thrive in cooler weather. When October comes to Kuwait and I can feel an occasional cool breeze on my face, I am in heaven for the next six months. When the rains come, I dance for joy.

So, alternatively, when I open the door to take a photo of the sunrise from my balcony, and it is as warm outside as it is inside, my heart sinks.

The sunrise this morning was awesome – lights and darks and sparkles all over the place:

What is not to love?

I’m trying not to be grumpy. I’m trying to think cool thoughts, and to be cool-headed. Keep me in your prayers, please, for sweetness of spirit, and for peace of spirit, and for super organizational skills.

  2. ugh! summer!
    It`s funny to read headlines in UK`s newspapers like “Sizzling temperatures break UK record” when the temperature there is only 38C! if they only knew that 38C is only the beginning of our ruthless suummer 😛
    Have a great day 🙂

  3. Ahhhhh, No3ik . . . one word from you and I am so ashamed of myself. Here I am, complaining it is getting hot, and there you are, missing Kuwait. I am so sorry. 😦 I promise I will try harder. I wish you all the best, too, dear one.

    Noura – LLOOLL! I agree! In Seattle, where there is hardly any air conditioning in houses (because they don’t need it!) they think 90°F / 38°C is blistering heat!
