...the HTML one that is, wasn't an easy task for me so the new look will have to wait as I refuse to spend my days in front of a computer!
Yesterday turned out to be quite a nice day where I was able to rest thanks to my other half! I ended up taking a 2 hour nap - woohoo! - followed by a trip to a mall where I spent some good quality time with books at Barnes & Nobles - nice to catch up on what's out there! After an hour I finally sat down, savoring both a bowl of Chow Mein and a book on learning Hebrew. I enjoyed every minute of it; I discovered the many rules concerning numbers and counting in Hebrew - more complicated than in French! I'm progressing with the study of the language which literally, is a music to my ears and a immense blessing. I think I started about a year ago, for religious reasons I must say. Studying the Bible with the knowledge of the original language makes a huge difference in captivating the way the authors of the sacred writings used to think and what the culture was like in those times. It's going to take a long time for me to get it all but hey, it is going to open up the scriptures so much that I'm all for it!
Back from my respite, I made it through the rest of the day - and night - okay. I still have to deal with some withdrawal symptoms and insomnia is a big one right now. All moms out there know that the less you sleep, the less patience you have to offer those little ones that God has entrusted you with. So...yes, the rest of the day didn't go as well as I'd have liked it to go but...oh well! Tomorrow is another day, right? And indeed it is.

Love the title of this post, lol! You'll have blogging down to a science before you know it. Its neat to hear your learning of the Hebrew language is going well. I've put my studying of foreign languages on hold for the moment as nursing Lil' Miracle takes all my time, lol. Hope you are able to get a nap today. Give Muffin and Cupcake a hug for me!

I like to recommend a great new book if you're learning Hebrew vocab - its called 'English Hebrew by Subject' and you can find out more on the website - www.engheb.com.
They also have excellent high quality free learning resources via the newsletter and blog.
Tov, toda! Thanks for recommending the book! It looks like it would be very useful. I remember having a similar one when I started learning English years ago (I'm French). The website looks cool too; I bookmarked it. The AKIN method should help me in building up my vocabulary too. I have yet to figure out how to get the Hebrew letters on my PC. One other thing I'm missing in the study of the language in real live conversation with natives who do speak it on a day to day basis. That's a big one. I tune on Hebrew radio stations, listen to some beautiful songs in the language but I do miss the one on one interaction... Anyway, thanks again. Shalom!
