It rained last night; I didn’t know because I was knocked out last night after our late grocery shopping. I just woke up to a wet balcony. May is a month of hot weather peppered with rains that make everything more humid.

A maid whose wake is being held in the chapel near our place died of a heatstroke (sounds like heatstroke to me) a few days ago, my mom’s cook told me over lunch today. The weather has been unbearably hot that I don’t find it surprising.

They say that we will be having a super El Niño this year, so that means the southwest monsoon/typhoons will be more unforgiving. Makes me think twice about installing solar panels that may just get peeled off by a super typhoon.

Speaking of maid, our cleaning lady isn’t coming in so I’m stuck doing loads of laundry and house cleaning. It’s already 3 pm and I haven’t cleaned the bathroom. 😭 Instead of resting on weekends, I spend my off days just cleaning. 🫠
