Brazil, Life and Perserverence!!!
Wordsley, Stourbridge, England: 11 degrees, chilly, grey and damp. What do you do on a cold and slightly rainy Sunday in England? You go to the pub! I worked in the morning, but I didn’t do any exercise as I am still sore, very sore from the workout yesterday. My mother suggested that we have a late lunch and also […]
Wordsley, Stourbridge, England: 8 degrees, a beautiful morning with the weather closing later in the day. This is my third day of exercising outside on the patio in my mother’s back garden, and it can’t get any better. Sometimes, when working out in Rio with temperatures ranging from 20 to 30°, I would feel euphoric. Here, the effect of the […]
Wordsley, Stourbridge, England: 6 degrees, cold, grey, grim and very damp. It was bitterly cold overnight, and at 7 in the morning, the temperature was -1 °C. I got up, washed, and put on clothes to exercise out on the patio in the back garden again. Today has seemed much colder than yesterday, and my skipping rope seemed shorter than […]
Wordsley, Stourbridge, England: 6 degrees, cold, grey and very damp. As I wrote yesterday, this week is dedicated to planning, setting goals, and outlining priorities and routines for the year, or at least for the next six months, until the end of the year. It is 6° during the day, but it was 1° when I got up at 7:00 […]
Wordsley, Stourbridge, England: 4 degrees, cold and overcast. A crazy day of housework and getting half drunk! As I have said many times before, I have been having difficulty getting up early in England, as I usually do in Brazil. I’m not sure if it’s due to the time difference; my body clock is still set to the Brazilian time […]
Wordsley, Stourbridge, England: 8 degrees, chilly, grey, a little rainy but fresh. I was up late, exercised late, and I stayed at home, not in the street. My first class at 11 a.m. was also cancelled. This month is a bit of a shambles, even more so since I’m currently in England. January is always a chaotic month—Broke after Christmas […]
Wordsley, Stourbridge, England: 10 degrees, a little sunny but overcast. It has been exactly two weeks to the day since my mother had her knee surgery. On Monday, she went for her first physio session. Interestingly, the physiotherapist gave my mother various printed sheets stipulating and showing her the exercises that she needs to do every day. For me, this […]
Wordsley, Stourbridge, England: 1 degrees, cold, sunny, overcast and rainy. I’m trying to get up early here, like in Brazil, but it isn’t easy. At least the last two days, I have slept well. Instead of going out for an early walk and not wanting to get confused by class times clashing with the time differences between England and Brazil, […]
