Fosse l'andamento del mio portafoglio titoli sarebbe un bel grafico...
Ma, oltre al fatto di non avere un portafoglio titoli, è l'andamento del mio peso questo mese.
Dal grafico si evidenzia l'aumento di 2,3 kg rispetto alla pesata di ieri mattina! 😱
Ovviamente non sono veramente 2,3 kg in più, tuttavia da domani e per qualche giorno si torna alla routine un po' morigerata nel cibo. 😥

Official translation of President Lai Ching-te's new year's speech
"Facing China’s alarming military ambitions, Taiwan has no time to wait and certainly no time to consume ourselves with internal strife. We may hold different views on many issues, but without strong and resilient national defense, there will be no country, nor will there be space allowed for us to debate. This should be a national consensus across party lines."
山羊座(や kí zō)の horoscope páginaは、12月22日~1月19日までの期間を表示します。以下、日本語のテキスト:
【総合運】
「友達が協力的。もっと大げさに感謝しよう。野心があり頭の合って、勝ち上がっていくつもりならで、周囲は敵だらけです。話したときに常識が通じる人は大切に。基本的に人間関係についてはネガティブで関わるなくならないと思ってます。しかしそれだけの力では望むポジションにはつつけません。縁を気にしたほうがいいでしょう。」
【仕事運】
「先輩の動きの何が違うのかが分かるようになります。言われたことをやっているだけだと永遠に成長しないと気付きます。自主的に仕事を改善。目立って抜き出されるかも。敵に囲まれますが自信があり平然としています。」
【恋愛運】
「相手の態度がはっきりせず不満です。もう会えなくても問題ないでしょう。気持ちを切り替えられます。ただ我慢したほうが簡単だと思えば不満は消える。結婚打算的なので実は恋愛感情は全く重視していない可能性が。
【金運】
「臨時収入に期待。生活費の心配はないでしょう。はっきり言って金銭がなけれればいいと考えているかも。経済に振り回されたくないという思いがあり自分の面倒観で生きてくることが幸せだと思っています。自給自足が夢です。」
【健康運】
「どんどんいろいろなものを吸収して蓄えて成長します。体力があるので全部受け止めることができます。底なしで、細かい点は気になりません。ブレドーザーのように自分の通り道にある物をなき倒して進んでいます。」
【アイテム】
セクション1はハンドクリーム【カラー】ゴールド【方角】南、セクション2は絵柄【カラー】レッド【方角】西。赤いバナーと大きな日本語のテキストが下に表示されています。
