Wordsley, Stourbridge, England: 11 degrees, sunny but slightly cloudy. Just a typical Friday with classes running late into the evening. The weight of the week is beginning to show, and I am feeling tired. This is normal and common; if I were in Brazil, it would be the same. However, what differs is working until 10 or 11 p.m., which […]
Thursday, the 21st of March 2024: “Serendipity with a Twist”!!!
Wordsley, Stourbridge, England: 8 degrees, chilly, overcast and trying to rain. What a great Thursday! The beginning was a little strange, with twists and turns, but by the end of the day, everything was good. If I hadn’t sent a message to Julie first thing, then she wouldn’t have sent me a message, which makes the whole situation seem petty, […]
Tuesday, the 19th of March 2024: “A Special Moment of Reflection and Contemplation”!!!
Wordsley, Stourbridge, England: 11 degrees, slightly sunny, overcast with the possibility of rain later. I had to put the bin out!!! On Monday night, you need to put the bins out for the dustmen to come and empty them, usually in the early hours of Tuesday, to collect the rubbish or the garbage. When I got up, they had already […]
Monday, the 18th of March 2024: “Inter-Family Connections”!!!
Wordsley, Stourbridge, England: 11 degrees, chilly, a little sunny, slightly overcast but pleasant. It is the first day of the week, and it is so good to have a good weekend before you begin the week on Monday. My weekend, going out with Julie twice on Saturday and once on Sunday, contributed a lot to a great weekend and the […]
Sunday, the 17th of March 2024: “Breaking Free and Self-Assertion”!!!
Wordsley, Stourbridge, England: 11 degrees, mild with rain in the morning but promising to clear up during the day. So, after Saturday, which was generally good, bordering on excellent, Sunday was meant to be less eventful but turned out to be the opposite. I woke up early, did my usual exercises, put seed and food in the bird feeders, and […]
Thursday, the 14th of March 2024: “The First Real Kiss”!!!
Wordsley, Stourbridge, England: 13 degrees, chilly, grey, dark and rain is promised. I’m not sure if I wrote this yesterday so that I might be repeating myself a bit, but it’s interesting how we often relax and don’t expect things to happen, yet when we plan and push the situation, it doesn’t always turn out as we want or expect. […]
Wednesday, the 13th of March 2024: “Emotional Realities”!!!
Wordsley, Stourbridge, England: 11 degrees, chilly, grey, and miserable. It is remarkable how our lives can change from water to wine in a day, an hour, or even a minute. Life can knock us down and then lift us up again immediately. Over the last month, I have been thinking, imagining, and even obsessing about this beautiful, little, perfect woman. […]
Tuesday, the 12th of March 2024: “A Heartfelt Workday”!!!
Wordsley, Stourbridge, England: 10 degrees, grey, damp, cold and shitty. Today has been a mixed day. It has been good because work has gone well. I have a new pupil, everyone is paying me on time, and my crypto investment is soaring. I can’t say the same for my Tesla shares; they are 30% down since I bought them. I […]
Thursday, the 7th of March 2024: “Love and Loneliness Through the Generations”!!!
Wordsley, Stourbridge, England: 6 degrees, bitterly cold but sunny and slightly overcast. Each day, this little woman is becoming more and more present in my life. I am trying to stop myself from being too involved, but she’s invading my heart. When I came to England, I hadn’t thought of getting involved or looking for somebody while staying here, not […]
Thursday the 29th of February 2024: “Hummingbird Symphony”!!!
Wordsley, Stourbridge, England: 3 degrees, cold, overcast and damp. Yesterday, I bought a bird feeder, a small upright tower that can be hung from anywhere in the garden. I decided to hang it from the clothesline, about halfway along, with the prop away from the feeder so that the birds can come and go freely without anything in the way. […]
