Friday, 21 February 2014

I slept well last night but woke up too late and too tired to go out for a walk. I'm getting really annoyed with this lingering cold. Unfortunately, it's only serving to illustrate my theory that really bad colds pass quite quickly, whereas mild colds hang around for weeks and even months!

Before breakfast, I walked down to recycle the cardboard and buy challah at the local bakery.

I taught 5 units of Berlitz lessons today: 9:00-10:30 and 10:30-12:45.

We ate lunch at Il Pentolino today, and after that we went to an appointment with David's psychiatrist. He's upping the dosage of the new medicine he started David on, and we're hoping that this will help with David's disposition. We'll still be below the normal dose, so there's room for further increases if necessary.

Shortly before the sun disappeared behind the hills, we made Shabbat, lighting candles, sipping a bit of sweet red wine, and eating challah. As soon as I got the candles down out of the cupboard Pascal was there, patiently waiting for his Shabbat seeds and rolled oats!

This really should have gone in yesterday's post, but I forgot about it: when David went to the family doctor by himself, I sent a letter to the doctor that I had written earlier in Hebrew. It probably wasn't quite perfect, but hopefully it helped the doctor understand what had been happening, and I'm just happy that my Hebrew is good enough to be able to do this!
