Apologies for digressing somewhat into the weeds: the point is that all of this figuring-stuff-out on an #AISH (provincial #disability pension) that has not risen since 2016, is expensive, time- and (personal)energy-intensive AND are all genuinely monumental accomplishments given my disabilities and lack of functionality in extreme heat.

My #mitigations don't even necessarily make things comfortable, they just make it less-likely I'll die from preventable consquences of #ExtremeHeat.

And this point is important, because I HAVE been successful in not-dying (yay! 🙂), but the mitigations are NOT SUFFICIENT for me to live a 'normal life' (my normal, under my normal range of restrictions/challenges) during the #FireSeason and #HeatSeason.

IOW, not a lot of extras get done during these extended periods.
