Thanks! :grin:

It seems there was a lot going on, I'll have to take some time off to catch up! :P

It's good to be back!

(I hope I still know how to speak English, heh. :P If I don't, please bear with me. Sometimes languages interact in unpredictable ways in my head.  ;D)
xSilverPhinx, you're back...

Can't stay away from us for too long, can you?
~That is good.
:grin:

I'm sorry, I couldn't understand you. Could you speak English please?

Just finished demolishing a brick mailbox and 50 square feet of brick work on the parkway, to complete the landscaping we started two years ago. The wife finally decided what she wanted for a mailbox. Decisions, decisions! I swung an 8 pound maul and used a 5 foot pry bar; the son used a jackhammer. Man, I am too old for this. I'm already hurting. Sad to say, we need to rent a dumpster to load it into. That's going to be kettle-bell like work and shovels for about 2 hours. :o  Once that's hauled off, we'll do some decorative work to finish it off.

I guess that's a reason to be cheerful. I think I would have hired some workers to do it for me. Still, you are getting things accomplished.

Indeed, :smilenod: I should have hired it done. I'm 67 YO(!) and getting tired of this kind of work. We tore out and built a new wall in the front 2 years ago. I was wearing a back brace for weeks after that. It's not like I don't have the money a little job like this, but I'm trying to keep up with my 34 year old son. He was pretty beat, too, when we were done.  :thumbsup:

XSP while you were absent I worried about you. That's on account of the rampant virus that is reported to have seized Brazil.

Please take care. We need you!

Yes, the while the virus is out of control we're going through a serious political crisis in Brazil that just makes matters worse. Not only are thousands of lives under constant threat with the relaxed social isolation policies but democracy is as well.  :(

But don't worry about me, Icarus. :hug: I am taking every precaution possible. I haven't left the house in...how long ago was it? :notsure: Two weeks? I don't know anymore, time has lost all meaning.

After all that sledgehammer work, I feel OK! I expected to feel like I'd been dragged through a knot hole from all that exertion. I guess the supplements I'm taking really do help.

Sorry but you are not allowed to view spoiler contents.

Hang in there Fernanda. you are plenty smart enough to avoid unnecessary exposure. Meanwhile you can work on your thesis or other things that are important to your eventual destiny. Do it.
