Brazil, Life and Perserverence!!!
Copacabana, Rio de Janeiro: 24oC, warmish, sunny and slightly overcast. Today is the day that I will pick up my new glasses. For some reason, I am more excited about these new glasses than about others in the past. I am 57. Why should I be so excited about another new pair of glasses? The idea is to go out […]
Copacabana, Rio de Janeiro: 23oC, warmish and overcast. Thank God it is Friday, even though it has been a good week. I resolved my Brazilian ID and will receive my new glasses tomorrow. I am tired and have not spent enough time developing the sites. At least I have decided my priorities for the next six months: my teeth, the […]
Copacabana, Rio de Janeiro: 27oC, hot, sunny and clear sky. It is Wednesday, the penultimate day of the month. I am still happy about resolving my Brazilian ID issue, but now I am more interested in what I will do for the next month and the second half of the year. I like the number 3 and its multiples. In […]
Copacabana, Rio de Janeiro: 27oC, hot, sunny and clear sky. I am still happy after resolving the issue with my Brazilian ID at the federal police yesterday. Today, I was up early with some effects of a dying cold, but I was ready to take on the world, or at least the day and the next part of my journey. […]
Copacabana, Rio de Janeiro: 26oC, hottish, sunny and with a bright sky. It is Sunday, and it is a beautiful day, but I am still a little down with a lingering cold. The plan is to get up early, work out in the park, have coffee at the Portuguese baker’s, and then maybe walk to Urca. Urca is my church, […]
Copacabana, Rio de Janeiro: 26oC, hottish and sunny. It is Friday, the end of the working week for most and almost the end of the month. The week has been reasonably good. I have had to choose the templates for all my sites. I have bought a new pair of glasses and am just waiting for them to be ready. […]
Copacabana, Rio de Janeiro: 26oC, hottish and sunny. Thursday, and I am still with a cold, and it seems to have stuck. Even so, up and out early for a light exercise session in the park. Back and washed by ten to seven and working with my first class at seven. Classes are direct until two pm, and then I […]
Copacabana, Rio de Janeiro: 24oC, warmish, sunny, and slightly overcast. As I mentioned yesterday, progress is slow but constant, and it is good as long as new possibilities appear to encompass the final goal. Many successful people swear that the journey is more important than the destination. Enjoy every part of the journey, and do not worry so much about […]
Copacabana, Rio de Janeiro: 24oC, warmish, sunny, and slightly overcast. My cold is getting worse, and I think I am going to die. I am taking medicine, which is a question of weathering the storm out: an early walk, no exercise, and some photos. When I had the dogs, I would love to go on long walks with them, drinking […]
Copacabana, Rio de Janeiro: 23oC, cool, sunny, and slightly overcast. It is the beginning of the new working week. The goal for this week is to define the templates for the sites so that from July on, it is just a question of configuring and customising them. It is a little daunting to develop so many sites simultaneously; however, as […]
