Learning the hard way, through distractions and frustrations

Are you one of those types of people with a million tabs open on your laptop, and when random music starts playing, you have to search through at least five pages with a hundred tabs open to figure out where the music is coming from?

Well, whether you are or aren’t, I am 100% that person. I sometimes have three different areas of music playing, and it takes me at least 5 minutes to figure out where the music is coming from.

I have come to realize that it is the same with my life. I have not been writing; I have barely kept my head above water.

The wifi, the work, the heat is almost killing me.

I have been at the farm on the Moshav for three weeks. I was planning on leaving last week and ended up staying another week mainly because I enjoy the people here, and I had a garden project, which I just finished on Friday.

I planted flowers yesterday, but didnt take a photo yet.

So now it is time to leave.

Like Mary Poppins…
