06.09.22 - Tirar o cavalinho da chuva

Halloooo,

Hope all well! 

Not much to report here as we slowly get reacquainted with relatively hassle-free domesticity, except I've picked up some extra work from a lady I met on Instagram, who wants me to chip in with her English course for Brazilians among other things. We also finally went to see Taynah and Rafa's baby, after nearly a year of false starts, which was rather nice, and today I've got an all-day one-on-one creative workshop, which could go either way I reckon. 

Elsewhere I've made a new compilation, and my saying of the day is "tirar o cavalinho da chuva" / "to take the little horse out of the rain", or to give up on unrealistic ambitions. Apparently in the olden days, people would pop in for a quick chat, but if the host didn't stop talking then they would give up on a quick getaway, and park their horse properly. Hence the phrase.

And that's all she wrote. Speak soon!
