I came across this cartoon at Dry Bones this morning. Even though I do not live in Israel, I think it quite acurately depicts how I’ve been feeling the last four weeks.
In one sense, its nice that the last four weeks have been effectively three-four day weekends but in another, it will be nice to get into a semi-normal routine. As shocking as it may sound, I have school work that needs to get done.
But then again, there’s no more significant holidays until Hannukah starting December 4. I’m sure I’ll miss the celebrations between now and then soon enough.
