While the trip to the States of a week and a half ago, is very recent, I have been so busy since returning that it seems like I never even went away! I returned on a Wednesday, the next day was Taanit Esther, when I found myself in Jerusalem for a meeting already. Friday, we were very busy in the house getting it all ready to host a crew of some of my former students (which was a wonderful experience!). After Shabbat was Purim (see previous posts)...Monday we were in Jerusalem again (see previous posts)...and Tuesday, I hit the ground running working on the Netivot program that our company has taken over. This meant finding teachers for TWO locations (boys and girls); finding counselors, closing the deal with the host schools and on and on. This is going to be a HUGE project for me personally (overseeing the program and teaching in it as well), but it has the potential for being magnificent as well. I am very much looking forward to this. (Over the next three days, I have many follow up meetings, cirricula to finish building, people to speak to, etc etc). All of this is happening as I also work to stay in touch with those people with whom I met in the States. Oh, yeah, and PESACH is coming!
SO...time to get some sleep so I can face tomorrow's challenges all over again: BARUCH HASHEM! Life is truly grand....
