Weekly rewind #8
Y ahora estoy bailando en una pata aunque la plata no me alcanza, podrán sacarme todo, todo menos el rock and roll
So this adulthood?
Weekly rewind
💸 This week, I checked our finances and I almost cried. After our trip to Argentina and to my hometown, “credit card” has become a forbidden phrase. Any extra expense is forbidden. But as Édith Piaf would say "Non, je ne regrette rien" (I regret nothing!).
🎲 Our fifth RPG session happened on Saturday and the kids solved two of the three riddles the fairy we met gave us in order to gain our magic item. I'm still trying to figure out one of them...
🌳 We live in a very grey city so finding green spaces has become an adventure. An adventure that I've decided to include in our lives.

Listening
🎧 Bach- Complete Cello Suites performed by Jean-Guihen Queyras. Every time I am squashed by people in the subway or on the bus while commuting, I just play this album and I feel like Ned Flanders driving to the mental institution. Almost there...
🎧 "Kubo and the two strings" soundtrack (because I am not influenceable at all...).
Fitness log
🏃♀️ I jogged three times last week but I did not check the distance. I just wanted to move.
🍽️ I'm trying to have dinner at 18:30, 19:00 at the latest. It is kind of difficult because firstly, I am Argentinian; we have dinner very late. Secondly, life is still happening at 20:00 so, our routine doesn't help much. But I'm trying...
