We decided to start this blog so we can keep in touch with family and friends. Our hope is that you will be able to see what our life is like in Israel.

Update from June 14th that I never finished

I was rereading the last update and noticed all of the spelling and grammar mistakes. I guess being around Israelis who don't use prepositions is starting to impact me. Unfortunately, my Hebrew does not seem to be getting that much better, so it's only having a limited impact. The good news is that my job is starting to improve, as I adjust to my new surroundings. I am getting used to what is expected of me, and although I still am pretty far removed from the day to day operations of the Units that I manage, I am learning to adjust to not being in the thick of things. The big thing was I finally decided that I was going to do what I thought best regarding my development here, instead of what my boss thinks. Overall, a definite improvement since last month. I also have a really good friend at work, Noam, who helped me get this job, which makes the environment a lot better, as we each have someone that we can confide it about all the craziness in the Israeli-Citi environment. But enough about me.
We had a 10 day streak of no one being sick, which unfortunately came to a messy halt this morning with Gali throwing up all over her bed. On the [plus side, Gali is very happy about staying home from school, and does not appear to be really sick. Eitan was getting sick every other week, so hopefully we can go this week without him getting sick again. Speaking of Eitan, he is up and about and walking all over the place. He is still at that stage where he walks with a wobble, which is really cute. The other kids seem a little more interested in him, now that he can walk.
