Week 23 - One Daily Positive, Project 366 and SnapHappyBritMums

IT'S TOO HOT. IT'S RAMADAN. IT'S SUMMER IN DUBAI.

I'm still getting to grips with calling the cat 'he' instead of 'she' after 4 years. Ramadan has started and working in an Arabic school during this time is challenging, but more about that next week. I've had a splitting headache all week with not being able to access water freely at work and the heat also.

Apart from work, I've not left the house all week. I stop at the shops on the way home, but once I'm home I don't go back out again. I was invited to a colleagues house for a coffee, which I enjoyed before my appointment Wednesday at the nail bar. It might sound like it's not worth writing about, but I've been in the job since December and this is the first invite I've had.

  1. Why can't you access water easily?? Because of Ramadan but it is hot... Heat stroke is a real danger in the heat you have
