It might seems like my last few posts were a bit too gloomy. Or so I've been told. So I am going to try something different for this post, a Happy List. I am going to look back at January (it still has four more days, but we'll just ignore that) and write all the good and happy things that happened this month.
Unimaginable. I know.
Okay, here we go:
First week of January, my parents were still here,...

January Blues
Last week of January. We are so so close to end this miserable month. You can almost feel the February in the air... I can't believe we've made it. I have come to the conclusion that I need to replace August with January as Worst Month of the Year. Up until now I always thought of August as the Worst Month because, you know how it is - 2 kids at home from school for the second month mixed with sweat, heat and boredom that are suffocating every corner of your being. It is like an endless...

Snowy Weekend

Normal Is Overrated
Back to normal. The last ten days were supposed to be back to normal days, back to the daily routine. My parents went back to Israel, Hidai went back to work, the kids went back to school, and I spent 3 days cleaning the house and am now sick again for almost a week. Normal.
But it's just superficial stuff.
Are we back to normal? What is normal?
When you are a parent with kids in school you sometimes...

2012: On Fluff and Stuff
2012 In review. Sounded so easy in my mind. Everybody does it - write what you did this year, add some nice photos from every month, you know - to represent, put in some sappy comments about light and love and happiness and finish it all with some all-inspiring new year resolutions in broad terms that remind you of a beauty contestent saying she will use her victory to create world peace.
So why can't I? I am all for world peace.
But somehow sitting here in front of my computer, something...

Christmas 2012 Recap
This is the third time I've started to write this new post, and hopefully third time's a charm, because up until now every time I start something happened and changed my perspective and what I wanted to write about. The first one I tried was a re-cap of Christmas and how much fun it was celebrating Christmas in London with my parents (it was a lot of fun), then it didn't happen because I...
