Frigging Hot Weather

The weather in KL has been frigging hot, stuffy and humid for the past few weeks. Though it rained yesterday, today the skies look hazy and I can even smell the familiar hazy smoke from the 5th floor of our unit and when I walk outside. Whenever there is no rain for 2 days in a row, the weather will be so hot that it’s unbearable…. for me. I’m one who cannot stand hot weather and the sweltering sun. I mentioned once in my blog that the weather actually decides my mood for the day. When the big bright sun is out and shining on us, I am moody and grouchy. But when the skies are gloomy with an impending thunder storm, my mood switches instantly. That’s one of my idiosyncrasies ^^

On a hot sweltering day, I could only wish that I could run round the house topless like this rascal.   But the only way to keep myself cool is to shower myself 4-5x a day and sprinkle nice smelling cool talcum powder all over my body to keep the prickly heat rashes at bay.

My way of keeping Baby cool when the temp is above 35 degrees Celcius is to let her run round the house in her birthday suit with the bottom on.  She sweats really easily and if she gets too sweaty, she has a tendency to get child’s heat rash.  My rule is that air conditioners are kept off limits during the day. Even with this, our electricity bill is RM400+ a month!

  1. Oh my, how do you get RM400 on elec bill every month? when mine tip over RM200 I’m jumping already! And we have 5 ppl in the house, one 2hp on everynight for 6 hours. Sometimes, other aircons too, and I think that’s the sucker for elec. Are you using a lot of oven / heat generating appliances?

  2. Irene, bids me! We switch on 2 air conds every nite for about 7-8 hrs. Not many appliances that generate heat. Oven hardly used when MIL is not around. Does electricity tariff depend on the area where we stay??

  3. haha topless must be very cooling for her. No way my MIL will let my kids topless like this. Even hot sunny day she will let them wear tee with sleeve, aiks should be sleeveless loh. Those sleeveless tee just for keeping nia, shake head.

  4. Mine with 1 unit (1hp) on at night it’s only RM130 per month. Even if you have 2 units, it should be multiplied by 2 at most? Don’t understand how your RM400+ comes about!

  5. It can comes from water heater! Shut off the water heater when not in use cause believe me it generates A LOT of electricity & freezer too. If u have freezer at home.

  6. yes mummy, it’s superb hot. I wear my spageti shirt….short short one becoz my hs only got me, baby and hubby. 😛 who cares as nobody will be looking….
