december was fine… until it wasn’t.
half of the month was spent home, taking care of christmas stuff and just going about life, and then we blinked and had 2 seniors to take care of instead… not the best of months.

november!
the month started in ilhavo/aveiro, spending time with little niece and family. we came back south and paulo immediately ran the 10 miles of the guadiana! and then life slowed down a bit, thankfully. i took care of my poor garden (overrun by snails and caterpillars), and we watched a few movies in the new cinema, caught up with friends and did stuff around the house. it was good to be back!
and october, at last!
that was a very full month, starting with world postcard day! the new theatre re-opened in town, and we saw some concerts and movies. we continued our korean saga, and added some korean food as well. and then mid-month we went north and stayed there to help manage some major life transitions for the in-laws and spend time with little niece. :)
so, again, i’m very late with these, but let’s try to catch up!
september was great! the family and small cousin were here for a mini vacation, then we went north for a uni reunion and came back south for the final stretch pre-World Postcard Day! there was a lot of attorney woo this month, some art, some bicycle woes, a concert, a race and the first (very shy) drops of rain!
ah august, you magnificent beast!
the month started in the north for little niece’s birthday party, but the rest of it was very much spent at home and it was glorious. we spent time with friends who were in the area, fixed stuff around the house, fought the eternal battle against summer ants, attended a few concerts and movie nights, dipped in the pool, cooked new stuff, watched kleo and then welcomed my parents and small cousin just as the month was wrapping up. :)
