Brazil, Life and Perserverence!!!
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. She receives money at one and pays her bills at the other, which isn’t very logical. I’ve suggested she simplify this by having just one account for both, but she doesn’t want […]
Wordsley, Stourbridge, England: 11 degrees, cold, rainy and overcast. It is Monday, following a busy weekend spent going to various places with Julie. A visit to the greyhound shelter to see such beautiful dogs, Wolverhampton, that I haven’t been to for such a long time, and finally going to Stourbridge for a late lunch, early dinner. It was important […]
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. I was tired in the evening, so it was great to get a good night’s sleep of more than six hours, which is really beneficial for me. I was up quite early […]
Wordsley, Stourbridge, England: 16 degrees, warmish and overcast. Saturday morning, the weather is a little iffy, but hopefully it will clear up so we can see the dogs. Julie and I had arranged to visit a dog shelter to see some greyhounds, with the possibility of adopting one in the future. The shelter is on the other side of […]
Wordsley, Stourbridge, England: 12 degrees, cool, sunny and slightly overcast. Friday is a day filled with movement in the morning and evening. Waking early, a brief half-hour chat on the phone with Julie, then exercise, a blog post, and out into the street. It is Friday, so I don’t usually have any classes early, which allows me to do […]
Wordsley, Stourbridge, England: 12 degrees, warm, sunny but slightly overcast. Thursday, a typical day with classes, resolving problems and online work until late in the evening. Julie sent me a message saying she had just finished her gym classes and would like to pass by to see me quickly. It was already 9:00 p.m., but I said OK and […]
Wordsley, Stourbridge, England: 12 degrees, cold, grey, rainy and miserable. It’s Wednesday, the middle of the week. If I were in Brazil in the past, it would have been an excuse to go out, meet someone, buy some beers or wine, have a drink, and listen to some good music or watch a film. I could go out with […]
Wordsley, Stourbridge, England: 9 degrees, cold, windy and with sun later in the day. It was just going to be a normal Tuesday where I would visit the two building societies for my mother, do some shopping, and then come home to work for the rest of the day. The morning was routine, with exercise, a blog post published, […]
Wordsley, Stourbridge, England: 6 degrees, stormy, rainy and very miserable. It’s Sunday, and Kathleen, the storm that has hit England. In the West Midlands, where my mother lives, it is incredibly windy, with some wooden fences being blown down in the back garden, and there is a lot of rain and cold. I exercised in the morning and spoke […]
Wordsley, Stourbridge, England: 9 degrees, cold, cloudy and rainy. Friday has been a typical day, except that Julie gave me a lift into the local village. I got up, did a heavy workout, had some coffee and gave my first class at 11 a.m. English time. I then got ready to go out. I needed to buy some groceries, but […]
