Life in Brazil and Perserverence!
Copacabana, Rio de Janeiro: 26oC, hottish, sunny, clear, and slightly cloudy later. In the past, on Tuesdays and Thursdays, I would begin classes at 8 am, so they were the days where I could have a heavy workout as there were no time restrictions. Since the middle of this month, I have begun to give classes to a new pupil […]
Copacabana, Rio de Janeiro: 27oC, hot, sunny, clear, and slightly cloudy. It is the middle of the week, and it is going extremely well. I am not anxious, I am not counting the time, I am not counting the classes, I am good. One of the reasons for this is my healthy early morning routine, which I have created and […]
Copacabana, Rio de Janeiro: 26oC, hot, sunny, clear and slightly cloudy at the end of the day. It is the first working day of the week, and even though Yasmin is not talking to me, my name is still Dirt; I’m happy because my weekend was enjoyable. On Saturday, I visited a friend and later went to Marina da Gloria, […]
Copacabana, Rio de Janeiro: 26oC, hot, sunny, clear blue sky. When I was married, I would say that Sunday was my favourite day and that Sunday morning, nobody knew my name. It wasn’t Dad, it wasn’t Richard, nobody knew it, I didn’t answer to any name. I was free to do whatever I wanted: read a newspaper or a book, […]
Copacabana, Rio de Janeiro: 25oC, warmish, sunny, and slightly overcast. What a wonderful day! I am temporarily living with my ex-wife and my youngest daughter. This idea began when I had to give back my flat in Copacabana to the owner, who needed it due to her family’s needs. The apartment was not mine, so naturally, I had to go, […]
Copacabana, Rio de Janeiro: 24oC, warmish, sunny, and slightly overcast. Friday and almost the weekend. I have created a healthy routine where I get up early and exercise daily. Even before physically getting out of bed, I do three exercises. As soon as I am up, I make my bed, which is folding up the bed linen, putting it away […]
Copacabana, Rio de Janeiro: 24oC, warmish, sunny, and slightly overcast. It is Thursday, and it is a good day. Tomorrow will be Friday, and then the weekend, but now it is Thursday, and I have plans for today. I have the usual early morning routine: up early, exercise, coffee, preparation before the classes, etc. One of my pupils, an old […]
Copacabana, Rio de Janeiro: 24oC, warmish, sunny, and slightly overcast. Wednesday, the middle of the week and everything is good. The classes are going well, and I am taking some very nice photos of Aterro and Flamengo. Early morning photography is very gratifying. The light is perfect, there are few people out in the street who could spoil a shot, […]
Copacabana, Rio de Janeiro: 27oC, warmish, sunny, and beautiful clear blue skies. Tuesday, and my name is Dirt at home. Since I decided to try to force my younger daughter to change her habits and her routine, consequently changing her future, she is clearly showing her disapproval by trying to make my life hell at home. Purposefully showing that she […]
Copacabana, Rio de Janeiro: 24oC, warmish, sunny, and slightly overcast. It is my second Sunday in Flamengo and more tranquil than last week’s Sunday; just arriving was a turbulent day of reorganisation and throwing stuff away so that there could be the minimum quality of life to work in peace. Now that everything has settled, this Sunday was special as […]
