Settling in.

Sprang out of bed at 5am again. Made some coffee around 6am and sat on the balcony listening to the Roosters crow, Gibbons howl, Secedas screech, and watching the Hornbills gather in the trees. It also became apparent that my Southern Thailand heat rash decided to come out of hibernation. There were only a few areas starting to flare up, but I realized last time that it is better ,to jump on it pronto, rather than let it consume you. If you have ever had the shit, you know what I am talking about. I got a prescription before I left Canada, so if I follow the same regime as last time I should be ok after the first week or so. Wake up, shower, powder, cream, wash affected areas at noon and apply cream, shower at bed, powder, cream, sleep… REPEAT! I even read in a Blog that using mint toothpaste helps with the desire to scratch. I may try this as well. Today was spent in a coma trying to get used to the heat and humidity. I was anti-social and isolated. What the hell… it’s only day one here.
