Yeah the heat really built up at the ramshackle old place I'm housesitting. Can't air the room or I'll be flooded by mozzies as there's no fly screens. Times like this I'm grateful for my place even though I tire of it in other ways.

I would've headed home but the cat needs breakfast in the morning before her human returns, and won't eat dry food left out too long. Gotta try and get up as early as possible so I can get home and water my plants asap.

It's not fun... apparently it's going to be 35 degrees tomorrow? Do I have that right? I've completely neglected my potted plants and forgotten to put out wildlife water 😞

Edit: I was going to suggest stick in mozzie screens but if you won't be there long and it's not your place it's a bit of a waste
