The chilly days had ended already here in my neck of the woods

in #lifelast month

I am expecting more intense heat in the remainder of this coming hot and dry season and it is ok for me because it does help me anyway because of my very limited fluid consumption.

My country is situated near the equator, we are in the tropics which is why we are an archipelago made out of tropical islands. However, we are not directly situated in the equator itself but a little bit above it. That is why the winds coming from Siberia is affecting the temperatures even in the cities in low-lying areas which causes some people to make use of jackets or anything that could protect them from the chilly days especially during the night where blankets are needed so that we will not sort of shiver while we are sleeping which means cold months would always come with cooler temperatures coming in too chilly for comfort. I had already told about this seasonal changes where it affects me when I sleep because my feet and hands would get cold during the night time which is why sometimes I would use double blankets and hide under it when I sleep.

I still use my blanket at night because it still gets chilly in some of the days during the hot and dry season.

I would seldom use electric fans when sleeping if the weather is too cold for comfort but I am forced to turn it on if mosquitoes would start to pester me. The use of electric fans in my country has two main purposes, to cool you off regardless the time of the day or season and it also serve as a good mosquito repellent if some mosquitoes manages to enter your room or house. You will still get bitten by mosquitoes of you happen to sleep outside the house even with a full-blown electric fan because of the number of mosquitoes at night time. But now that the weather is turning hot again because it is already the month of March, I am using more of my electric fan particularly during the day because it is now getting too toasty already particularly in my room which is the hottest part of this house. But still the nights are cooler but not like it is intolerable and I am expecting it to be more hot and humid in the following days and weeks as we welcome the hot and dry season with a possible rain showers in between to give us some relief form time to time just what happens last year.

Nature still has a way to break the raging heat of the days by showering our land with unexpected rain showers and I have grown older to witness it myself in many occasions now.

But the intense heat of the hot and dry season is pretty terrible to endure at times because the radiation of heat coming from the ceiling sometimes would hurt my skin. However I would get more free about consuming fluids too as I perspire more during the hot seasons. The bad thing of course is that it gives me an uncomfortable feeling as I drench over with sweat but it is a good way to pull out some of salt in my system which makes me feel better. I just hope that sweating around is detoxifying my body more than I expect for the reason that all through the years I am subjected to ingesting toxins like heavy metals considering that I have a bad way of eliminating them because of my failed urinary system. Right now the hotter weather is still ok because the temperatures are still in transitioning stages but soon a more hot and humid weather will dominate and as always I am already prepared for it.
