Give Me Feedback. This is pretty one sided. I could go on and on about what I see and do and experience, but what do you want to know about or hear about? I would love it if you asked questions or left comments. I will try to respond to any questions that people may have and post the answers. If I don’t know the answer, I will just make one up. No, I will actually investigate and inquire to find out, that way it will be a learning experience for me too.

You write beautifully. I laugh and cry for missing each experience with you and the boys when I read these stories!
describe your typical weekday schedule and weekend schedule. I know you have spoken about what you usually do – festas, carnivales, shopping but I am looking for the compare/contrast with ER
Is this an essay? Compare and contrast…500 words or more?
Make it a challenge – 100 characters!
for instance, my life curently is charactrized by verbs. Too many verbs – I want to change it to a life of adj. I imagine your life has more adj – more time for reflection. Not sure if that is true.

Love it! Though mine too is currently characterized by verbs but that would be conjugating them. Never did I think I would be struggling with the past tense of “To vomit”. I had to ask a new friend Viola the other day how to say “To kill” as in “The boys are killing each other”. I can do very well with the adjectives. It is just the masculine, feminine, singular or plural that sometimes trips me up. I noticed you did have one adjective in your list, perhaps two. Warm and hot. You can warm something but you can’t “hot” it. so I guess maybe it would be the verb “Essere” or “To be” as in sono caldo – “I am hot”, which oddly enough in Italian covers both warm and hot.
