Last rain

Dressed for
Purim
 Talk about something fishy ... right now I see there are 520 views on my blog today ... when usually it's between 25-40 a day. I don't have so many friends. So obviously something doesn't smell right. Like my phone number continues to be used by someone else. Last month's bill was double the normal. And people who try to call me still say someone else is answering the phone. It's all very terrible and disturbing.

It's drizzling now. The sky is orange and grey. The last raindrops of winter as forecast. We've not had as much rain as last year ... but I guess it's enough for the crops to grow well this summer. I'm thinking of summer already ... a holiday at our house in Jaffa ... something I've planned every year but I think it's been 3 years now, maybe 4 that I've not actually done it. I owe it to myself. I've worked too hard all these years without a holiday. And Buddy and JJ would have a chance to get out of my room.

So now I'm free from Covid ... but I can't have the vaccine because of my asthma and allergies. That's no fun. The doc at the clinic told me to take a chance and get the vaccine ... but when I think of a possible anaphylactic shock ... I'm not too convinced.

I'm now stressed out trying to prepare a class, a video script and getting financial help for poor students at the same time. When I was younger, I could have multi-tasked easily. Now I've slowed down alot ... doing only one thing at a time. And I've become very forgetful ... not knowing what or why I was at a place. It's scary. I'm hopeless with names ... but now it's getting worse. Even people I see everyday, I can't recall their names. And that goes for faces as well. One day I'll wake up not knowing who I am.
