No sleep

For some unknown reason I had little to no sleep last night, I have no idea why apart from a niggling doubt that I possibly took four of my tablets instead of two, now I would have thought that they would have knocked me out had this been the case, but I had no sleep so maybe they work in reverse, it's not that they are sleepers, they are for nerve pain in my back, and generally work wonderfully, and although through the night I didn't have nerve pain, I was very restless, and I know I have nothing to be guilty about so it can't be that.....

D day today, contracts signed and we will have a new home, I now know all the supermarkets and know where to get the provisions I need, I also know to avoid the delivery aisle, because YOU WILL be there for hours, especially when the person in front of you decides to continue shopping when your behind them, completely they're oblivious to your one item. I have also to get used to having no space, it has been invaded numerous times whilst waiting in a queue, I've even had my spinach fiddled with by an elderly gentleman which wasn't pleasant, luckily for him it was in a sealed box, or I maybe would have drop kicked him......My space, your space seems to be OUR space and will take some getting used too. But having said that when you get offers of lifts from complete strangers and you know your safe with that, then you know your in Israel.

I have to pay attention because when people talk to me I don't have a clue unless they tap me on the shoulder, or shout down my ear. I just presume that no one will be speaking to me as I don't know them, wrong, every one will speak to you, just not in a Language I understand.

The Little Princes are dead excited for their visit in the Easter holidays, they are looking forward to seeing the house and visiting Israel, a Country they know little about, but have been misguided about by someone. They will learn to embrace and enjoy Israel just like we have, I think they will love the beaches and the people, and I'm sure as long as they get Spaghetti Bolognase at least once whilst visiting they will be fine, and if not there is the ice cream, the chocolate, the cakes and all the other food groups the Israelis do so well.

Lunch was Tuna salad and the lovely girl in Spoons is getting very friendly now, sitting by the window and reading a book was what I did for most of the afternoon, well until I took a mad idea that I would transfer all my photos from the Viao to the Mac, oh dear god 14,000 photos and hours later I decided to cancel the import and use the hard drive and once I did that it was simples, 21,000 photos later and it was done in a flash.

Supper was taken at HaBank with My Beloved, no drink for us we are healthy through the week....and for me the weight seems to be dropping, hooray. We took a walk past our new home, it looks lovely at night with all the lights, blue and white on the outsides of the building.

Just as we were arriving back at our room Itzhak called to say when would I like to go around to see the house and speak with Lily about furniture, so I'm going to see them tomorrow morning at 10 am. How exciting, Natalie has given me directions for all the places to buy great furniture, so between Natalie and Lily I'm sure I will find something.

I forgot to mention I have downloaded an app that now tracks my movements, not that My Beloved has to keep and eye on me, but so I can figure out where I have been, how long it took and how far I walked, and if I really care, how fast, how how, and how low. This lovely app even lets me stop it when I nip in for a coffee break, then restart when I'm ready. Did I ever mention I love Apple.
