Friday, 30 January 2015

I got up early this morning and walked for about 45 minutes. Then, a little later but still before breakfast, I walked down to recycle the cardboard and buy challah for Shabbat.

I taught 5 units of Berlitz lesson today (although the last 2-unit student was a no-show): 9:00-9:45, 10:00-10:45, 11:00-11:45, and 12:00-1:30 (the no-show).

We went to Greg Café at Mercaz Big for lunch today. David had vegetable curry with rice, and I had a yam quiche.

As the sun was about to leave our beautiful valley we lit candles, sipped wine, and ate a bit of challah to welcome another Shabbat.

התעוררי, התעוררי, כי בא אורך! קומי, אורי
עורי,עורי, שיר דברי; כבוד יי עליך נגלה
Hitoreri, hitoreri, ki va orekh! kumi, ori
Uri, uri, shir daberi; k'vod Adonai alayikh nig'la

Awake, awake, because your light has come! Arise, shine
Wake up, wake up, song of my word; the honor of Adonai on you is revealed

[5th stanza of L'cha Dodi, the hymn to welcome Shabbat]
