Wordsley, Stourbridge, England: 22 degrees, hot, sunny with blue skies. This Friday has been my crypto day. I have bought the most Bitcoin I have ever bought in a single day. Compared to those with a sizable amount of money or a substantial investment portfolio, it would seem like small change, but for me, it was quite a lot. Why […]
Wednesday, the 15th of May 2024: “Reflection of Struggles and Possible New Strategies”!!!
Wordsley, Stourbridge, England: 21 degrees, warmish, sunny and slightly overcast. It is Wednesday, the middle of the week, and a strange week. As I wrote yesterday, there are many loose ends and conflicting situations at the moment, and I don’t know what I want to do. I’m working, giving classes, and making money —not exactly what I ideally want, but […]
Sunday, the 12th of May 2024: “Life’s Complexities”!!!
Wordsley, Stourbridge, England: 27 degrees, very hot, sunny and with beautiful blue skies. Sunday, almost my whole day off from everybody. Julie and I are not 100%. There are some issues which are normal in any relationship. Especially at the beginning, when you are both finding your way, and also when dating today is all so much more complicated and […]
Wednesday, the 8th of May 2024: “Resilience and Struggle In Contemporary Brazil”!!!
Wordsley, Stourbridge, England: 22 degrees, hot, sunny and with blue skies. My usual early morning routine includes exercise, writing a blog post, and journaling, then I begin classes at 11 a.m., with additional classes today until only 5:00 p.m. It’s an easy day for me, which is both good and bad. Good because I can finish early and do other […]
Sunday, the 5th of May 2024: “Family Dynamics”!!!
Wordsley, Stourbridge, England: 19 degrees, warm, sunny and slightly overcast. It’s Sunday, and traditionally in England it’s the day for a family lunch —the usual Sunday lunch. I feel that my mother is trying to compete with Julie for attention, control, and perhaps even to sabotage my relationship. It has become clear that every Sunday she pretty much decides what […]
Tuesday, the 30th of April 2024: “Mr Hornsby At Hammersmith Odeon”!!!
Wordsley, Stourbridge, England: 19 degrees, quite warm, sunny with a few clouds. It is Tuesday, the last day of April. Tomorrow will be May 1st, Labour Day and a bank holiday in Brazil. For me, it also marks New Year’s Day or the start of my new year. My birthday month is coming to an end, along with the old […]
Monday, the 29th of April 2024: “Retrospection of My Last Year”!!!
Wordsley, Stourbridge, England: 16 degrees, warm, sunny but slightly overcast. It’s April, and my birthday month is coming to an end! And what a month it has been! It marks the close of one year of my life, and fortunately, another is beginning. I have been reflecting on the past year: where I was in April 2023, and where […]
Saturday, the 27th of April 2024: “Our first Lunch at The Old Wharf with Austin”!!!
Wordsley, Stourbridge, England: 12 degrees, cold, slightly sunny, overcast with showers. Our lunch appointment is at 2:15 at the old Wharf Inn pub, in the old Wharf, very close to Lower High Street, Stourbridge. Julie was getting her things together in the morning, and I was doing the same. I exercised in the back garden and enjoyed some gardening, […]
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. Funny enough, there is no discount or special price for Thursdays, and Indian curries are offered all week round during Curry night at Wetherspoons. I woke up […]
