Enough already. I cannot walk (in the streets) without crutches (since August 2024). And I cannot use an umbrella whilst hobbling along on crutches, for obvious reasons. Last winter (rainy af – yes, much needed but still) made me realise how much this limits me. So… hello polka dot poncho! Not quite a famous blue raincoat but let’s see if this helps.

What a difference a week makes. We’ve gone from 45ºC to temps between 32-35ºC and with a lovely breeze too. I know I said I didn’t care what I spent on AC this summer – I was going to be comfortable in my home! – but I have to admit when the July bill came in it was a shocker. August will probably be similar, if not more, but from now on… just sitting here at my desk with the balcony doors open and my fan on and it’s perfect. Pic taken while hobbling home (that’s my street!). Every day I am so happy to still living in my favourite barrio. 💙
