All In A Week.

Today's post is a mish-mash of things that happened last week.

Our outdoor afternoon activities have been reduced due to the heatwave, an average of 36 deg C. All I want to do is hide inside my house with the fan full blast. And if we sometimes take afternoon nap, we need to use the air conditioner. Some of my friends prefer to spend their afternoon in the supermarkets or the malls where the air conditioner is free. I am just too lazy to change my clothes!
Last week, Thursday, I needed to go to the hair dresser. I made an appointment with her one day earlier. This place is within short walking distance from my house.
The customer on my right has gone for a hair wash. After that the hair dresser will be tending to my hair shortly.
This is me, occupying myself while waiting for my turn.
I needed to keep my hair cut because I sweat a lot.
Later, we went for our afternoon snacks. Its mung beans and pumpking sweet porridge with a little bit of coconut milk.

A plate of vegetarian beehoon to share.
The next day, Friday, I visited the dentist. While waiting for my name to be called, I snapped this picture of the wall behind me.
The little child in me still enjoys this picture.
Last Friday was Good Friday. Later in the evening after dinner,
we attended Good Friday service in church.
And finally, its Good Fences once again and I have 3 fences to share.
Thank you, Theresa for hosting.
High chain link fence and a rusty gate on the left.
Lower half concrete and upper half metal fence around a house.
And lastly, a wooden fence.

Linking to Good Fences.

Even if the fig tree does not grow figs
and there is no fruit on the vines,
even if the olives do not grow and the fields give no food,
even if there are no sheep within the fence
and no cattle in the cattle-building,
yet I will have joy in the Lord.
I will be glad in the God who saves me.
(Habakkuk 3:17-18, NLV)

  3. 36°C. is hot and if there's a lot of humidity, it's very uncomfortable. Keeping your hair short is a good idea. I keep my hair short too. Nice colorful wall for kids.
    I hope you get some cooler temperatures this weekend.
    Hugs,
    JB

    1. Thank you, Julia. There are some days in between when the temperature is cooler but it is reported that the heatwave will be with us for a few more months. It is very, very uncomfortable.

  14. In the winter we have the heater on all the time. During spring (very short time) we don't have either on. In the summer we have the air conditioner on all the time.

    Love all your food. Yummy.

    I loved that second fence around that house. Nice.

    Have a fabulous day Nancy. ☺

    1. Hi Sandee, over here it is no more a luxury to have air con, it is a must! Have a wonderful day!

  15. I cannot go anywhere with air conditioning, it makes me very ill and I have had pneumonia 3 times each of which the Dr has blamed on air conditioning. 36 C is not a problem for me but when it reaches 40C then I do not like it! Diane

  25. It was actually "warm" enough here today to turn the AC on in my car which was wonderful - I can't imagine it being as hot as you must be there just yet. - The Dentist mural was adorable. You found 3 great fences. I liked the middle one the best.

  27. I've not seen a concrete and metal fence like that. Interesting design. That looks like the office of a child-friendly dentist.
