Maanantai 🇫🇮 Mánudagur 🇮🇸

Even though the attic resembled a sauna yesterday night, I woke up in the middle of the night and realised that I was freezing. What an utterly unusual reaction from my system! Anyway, after waking up and having the usual breakfast, I wanted to go about my daily routine when it dawned on me we were out of goods. With this in mind, we jumped in the car and drove to the stores to replenish our inventory. It was already hot when we left, and it became even warmer when we were on the way back home, but the afternoon brought the real heat, +35°C, which, in this part of the globe, is considered an inferno. It's 20:11 when I'm writing this entry, and according to the thermometer, the outside temperature is still high, +28°C. The impending storm that is supposed to bring significantly colder air is on the corner. The weather forecast predicts severe thunderstorms with hail and gale-force wind, and they don't exclude the possibility of devastating flash floodings during the next 24 hours. Nice prospects!

As for my studies: I challenged ChatGPT with a few sets of sentences, but today wasn't my day to make outstanding achievements. I'm not disappointed or frustrated because I know the root cause of the problem. It can be attributed to the ginormous amount of practice I've made recently, and apparently, my wee mind needs time to process all the new pieces of information. I'll let them sink in properly.

Keskiviikko 🇫🇮 Miðvikudagur 🇮🇸

My new bridge is in my mouth. It took the doc almost an hour to meticulously and precisely fit it in and cement it. I wasn't allowed to eat for three hours, and I still can't chew anything on the left side of my jaw. However, my dental features are ship-shape-and-shiny. Only one tooth is left: they need to replace the old filling. Once it's done, I'll have a Hollywood-type smile. Before the dental care, I went through the lesson plan I'd prepared the other day for today. When I returned home from the dentist, I took Abby for her afternoon walk and drove to Budapest to teach. Before arriving at where I taught, I popped into a store to buy some "kifli" for later and four "Túró Rudi" to appease my rumbling stomach. After teaching, I hurried back home, grabbed two "kifli", some butter and plum jam, and ate like a king. It was already pitch dark when we returned from our evening walk with Abby. I hate the early dusks. However, summer tries

Goodbye 2023 - Hello 2024

2023 has been an interesting year for many reasons. There were ups and downs, good and bad times, laughter and tears, but most importantly, us being together. During the last few years, I've noticed that we can overcome any obstacles together, which is a fantastic and soothing thought. Come 2024, for better or worse, together we will solve everything. May the world be a better place in 2024.

GRAZ - day 1 - 🇦🇹

We are in Graz, as Ági’s linguist conference starts tomorrow. We woke up early in the morning. I had to de-ice the cars, which took an hour. Once I finished the job, Ági took Abby to the dog sitter, and I packed my things for the weekend. Abby didn’t want to stay at the dog-sitter - poor thing - but Ági’s callousness conquered her temper tantrum. Travelling to Austria is always a pleasure. The roads were clean, the traffic was not heavy, and taking the scenic route was a brilliant decision. We could have opted for the Balaton route, but the northern direction seemed a better choice. We stopped at an unknown little village, where the shopping mall was phenomenal. We grabbed a coffee and stretched our legs because sitting in a car for hours is not the best thing in the world. Anyway, we arrived at the hotel - which looks great - safe and sound. The room is small but clean, however, the area is a bit dodgy. It’s close to the main train station, which attracts many people, so it is a busy
