You: Hello, Howard. How are you, today?
Howard: I am feeling OK. How about you?
You: I am also OK. What did you do this morning?
Howard: I went to Sazanpia to an English class for children.
You: Did you have a good time?
Howard: Yes, it was the last day for them.
You: What do you mean?
Howard: Some of them will be starting a new term next month.
You: And, how was your week?
Howard: I had a good week. I have been walking a lot.
You: Oh? Are you getting stronger after your operation?
Howard: Yes, I am. But, I ate two large bowls of spagetti last night.
And, I almost threw up.
You: Why was that?
Howard: My stomach is too small. I need to watch what I eat.
I can't eat too much at one time.
You: I see. And, how is Mia?
Howard: Mia is studying hard at school.
She doesn't like all of the work, though.
You: Well, school is important for her future.
Howard: Yes, but I don't want her to be too serious.
I want her to enjoy her life, too.
Life is so short. We need to take time to smell the flowers.
You: I see what you mean.
