19 Kislev/6 December, 2009

My voice is finally back to sort of normal, although, I’m still coughing. Stupid cold. I did have enough energy to do regular Sunday stuff. I haven’t left the house since I came home from work on Thursday, but I did exercise through games.

I finally finished Chapter 6 of the Hebrew book and started studying the vocabulary for the next chapter. All I had to do for chapter 6 was some exercises but that took couple of weeks. But I can translate sentences like “In the land stood a city, and in the city stood a house, and in the house stood a father and young women and servants and an animal and things. Walked the father, walked the young women, walked the servants, walked the animal, and the things stood there in the house.” There is certain vocabulary you get from Biblical Hebrew. Next up, chapter seven and pronouns. I can finally get to “I” and “you.” We already covered “he”, “she” and “they” in previous chapters. Sometimes a chart might be nice.

I also did some cross-stitch, more gray rocks with some blue sea, which was briefly interrupted by gossip. As Papa was coming home he saw lots of police cars on our block, at one of the house facing the back of our house. Too many police cars and detective cars to be an ordinary police call, in a house known for screaming spouses. I hope nothing drastic happened, but there was some excitement at speculation.

“Dexter” is having a good Season 4; only one episode left, and wanting to see it now is a great sign for the set-up and the cliffhanger.
