I have found that rarely am I at my computer when I have something to blog about. In fact, I seem to compose the best posts while walking home from dropping off Millie each morning…which I then forget about by the time I am able to sit and write. So instead, I am going to share few short thoughts that will probably end up being a mishmash of things.
School/Gan
Both girls are doing well. Millie is always happy to go to her school and has many different subjects including technology, animals, math, Torah, and more. Technically there is also Hebrew language but she doesn’t know enough Hebrew to follow so she reads or draws or works on her Hebrew book that we ordered for her and which has English instructions. It is what it is. Aviva loves gan. She sings songs, has art, and often has a special activity. She also has a best friend, Itamar. Her teachers tell me everyday how they are inseparable. We often get photos via the WhatsApp group and if Aviva is in a picture, you can usually see Itamar right next to her!
Here are a few recent photos of the girls.
Worse than Comcast?
On Wednesday, our internet went down. This is bad. I need it to do my work. Bev wrote in his recent blog how we made the most of the day so I will not repeat it. What I will add is that we got reconnected by Thursday afternoon thanks to our landlord’s son-in-law (Chen), who apparently is in the high tech field. Which meant that we did not need to deal with Partner, the internet provider, directly. In the end, Chen fixed it himself. From the start he did not hide his low opinion of the company’s ability to bring of any help. Apparently, cable/internet customer service is non existent no matter where you are! I am indebted to Chen.
Hmmm. This is going to be even shorter than I thought. Well, here are a few more photos. From the top: Aviva at gan, B’hai garden from downtown, our Carmelit stop -now with signage, Aviva and Itamar at the park, Millie enjoying lunch at Cafe Greg.
