Sunnuntai 🇫🇮 Sunnudagur 🇮🇸

We returned two wireless chargers to IKEA because they wanted to do something other than their job. Luckily, despite the mass that "greated" us, the return process was quick. And while there, we thought having lunch at the Swedish restaurant would be brilliant. Ági had salmon, and I had Swedish meatballs; both were delicious. We bought some necessary goods and rushed back home.

I gave Ági a foot massage, and when I finished, I immediately fell into a deep coma-like state. Not even the after-dinner coffee could have prevented me from sleeping like a log this afternoon. When I woke up, it was already 14:30, but it took me another hour to come to. I was so peckish when I regained consciousness that I had to eat something. The "kifli" we bought on the way home with butter and plum jam - my favourite - was just what I needed.

The afternoon was rather prolific. I built a contraption, more precisely, an extension that supports what I have on my desk, which contains my books and stationeries. I now have plenty of space to hit the keyboard while my books are open between the edge of my desk and the keyboard. It took me two hours to build it and rearrange the office, but those two hours were well spent.

The locksmith promised to come tomorrow to complete the railing in the front garden. Fingers crossed that he keeps his promises. The paint on the staves dried completely. Tomorrow, I only must correct a few patches and paint the top of each rod three more times to get the perfect result. Painting them will be easy since the weather is still unusually warm. Even though the early mornings are chilly, the days are summer-like. We love it.

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
