Happy Valentine's Day

I wanted to write about my failure in installing sparkling hearts into my Valentine's Day candles but all I can think of these days is the upcoming incredible change in our life.

I wanted to write about the my huge struggle with myself about my huge collection of books, most of them stored in boxes in the garage all alone in the dark, suffocating… no…no…no…with all due respect they are books not living creatures or are they?

But all I can think of is my incoming departure from Southern California…

                                                                 In a wintery day

                                                    and in spring and all year around

I wanted to write about how not a long time ago I heard from a very good friend of mine a story of how in a parking lot of the swimming pool in a Kibbutz in Israel she found boxes full of books near the recycling bin. She got very upset and…adopted them instead of letting them be recycled so she gave them some more years to live until the time would come when all her huge collection of books will suffer the same fate.

 So even within all this personal turmoil I managed somehow to create some Valentine's Day candles full of love and sparkling hearts combining in them some solution for the unwanted books.

And so, with Valentine's Day almost over...

we are almost ready to the big move from south west to sort of north east, and to the dream comes true of the great shore to shore, cross country road trip.

I began the countdown! 14 day to loading my Jeep with our most personal staff, Phibi, our old beloved dog and some provisions and…hit the road of 2400 miles to our to be new home in York Pennsylvania.

                                           Happy Valentine's Day to all!!!
