Temperatures and heat waves

Last week while Sydney sweltered  in the heat wave that delivered 40C temperatures for several days in a row, I sweltered under my own internal heat wave.  I never knew a sinus infection could ground one so thoroughly.

After picking up the keys for my new abode I unpacked the mattress from the car then took to my bed, or rather took to my mattress.  I lay for 6 days contemplating my new walls from mattress level, incapable of doing more than reaching for a glass of water. By the time the antibiotics were starting to work my intentions of painting the walls had evaporated entirely.They seem just fine as they are, at least from mattress level.
