It was good to talk to you!

Thanks! I don't think I have a gift for storytelling or anything like that, but it's a fun way to practice my Hebrew. :) And if I think of it that way, I don't have to be critical of myself.

I actually had this particular dream... the part in the end where my grandma wouldn't leave the house really freaked me out.

It'll probably be a long while before I post more... there are just so many things I need to do. And for my Hebrew, my goal for now is to learn as many food words as I possibly can. My congregation is going to Israel in the spring, and I need to be prepared to stay vegan there. I guess my second goal is to get faster with speaking about and understanding numbers. That'll be important when I want to buy something. :)
