it is 10:30 a.m. here in the holy city of safed. i haven't done a thing yet except try to send a sale of chometz online; unfortunately, not very successfully. must add this to list of things that make me nuts. i haven't even broken my 16 hour nightly fast yet. i am freezing. i have been online for hours. i just took a very long, burning hot shower to try to feel warm. i went through the lingerie drawer and found 3 pairs of new underwear, yeh! i think i might have bought them for my daughter-in-law when she was pregnant. anyway, they were XXXL bikini fit. i was ready to toss them but i tried them on. i felt for sure, that they would be falling off. they fit just great. so much for Israeli underwear sizes.
2:00 p.m. i washed down the porch glass doors in the master bedroom. i did not use windex. i used a shmatta with dish soap and water. i am chomping on fresh ginger. i sat outside for half an hour with exposed arms and legs to get my vitamin d. i finally put away my medical papers from February's visit to the pulmonary surgeon; which were resting on the kitchen table. it seemed like an almost impossible task to perform. i walked away from these papers for so long. i found my medical folder; which is on a wall shelf over the computer in my blog room. i saw that i have a scheduled visit to the oncologist in may. i also am supposed to schedule a brain MRI in june and see the neurosurgeon. i think it won't be happening on time this year. i will try and call to schedule the MRI after pesach. it takes a few months to get an appointment, anyway.
3:30 p.m. i just washed down the large meat toaster oven/broiler. what a mess! i thought about tossing it. we've had this for about 20 years. who knows? the oven spray may have sent it to oven heaven. we shall see after pesach. it is in the cometz closet now. the electric hot water jug died. i cleaned it with lemon salt and it went off to kuk kum heaven. wow, she had a good run. i bought her many years ago in carmiel. she was from Germany. i was a bit ashamed that i purchased her from the land that killed my family. she was loyal and did a great job. she started whistling lately. i should have realized that her end was near. her demise came as a total surprise to me. i am heating up water in a kettle on the gas stove; the prehistoric way. not to worry; i have a pesach kum kum in the closet.
5:00 p.m. finally sold my chometz on the phone to the rabbi at chabad house in safed. what a relief it is!!!!!
