Friday, the 19th of April 2024: “A Rainy Day Gesture in Wordsley”!!!
Wordsley, Stourbridge, England: 15 degrees, sunny and slightly overcast. I’m dealing with a cold that doesn’t seem to be getting better, and the weather isn’t helping, with short bursts of sunshine trying to pierce the clouds and showers. I’m unable to exercise because I’m suffering too much from the cold. It’s not that I don’t want to, but I […]
Thursday, the 18th of April 2024: “Curry Night at Wetherspoons”!!!
Wordsley, Stourbridge, England: 14 degrees, sunny with showers. It is curry night at Wetherspoons. Julie likes Indian food, specifically curries, and it is curry night at every Wetherspoons in England every Thursday.

Wordsley, Stourbridge, England: 10 degrees, chilly, sunny and slightly overcast. Today is the day I am taking a blood test, the first in a long time.

Wordsley, Stourbridge, England: 13 degrees, chilly, sunny and slightly overcast. Tuesday is the day I usually visit the two building societies in Kingswinford village for my mother.

Wordsley, Stourbridge, England: 14 degrees, warmish, sunny but slightly overcast. Saturday was an action-packed day, with Julie and me visiting multiple places, some planned and others not.

Wednesday, the 3rd of April 2024: “Routine, Power and Purpose”!!!
Wordsley, Stourbridge, England: 6 degrees, grey, miserable and rainy. I’m glad to be back at work after a long Easter bank holiday, as it was a bank holiday in Brazil on Friday and another in England on Monday, which completely disrupted my routine for staying healthy, productive, and earning money. I faced the same issue in Brazil, where the long […]

Wordsley, Stourbridge, England: 8 degrees, cold and grey with bursts of sunshine. It’s Tuesday, back to work, and I feel relieved. It is always very nice to have time off, a break, a bank holiday or even holidays, but for me, returning to work is a relief. I feel down when I spend a long time without working. I think […]
