One of my favorite cafes went out of bussiness. They temporarily made it a gallery - a few unemployed artists are “presenting” their works, pasteries, and self-made coffee, and selling them. It is part of extensive protests that take place in Israel in the past weeks. I bought an overpriced cookie. I am unemployed too, but I have enough money for cookies. I try not to fall for deppression. I registered for painting lessons. The pandemic made me think about what I did with my life. I have plenty of time, I need a dramatic change. How come this concern of pandemic was something I never imagined? I need to work on my imagination.

Today brought me much happiness. Hubby and I visited the zoo—the first time we’ve been to any attraction in well over a year. With masks on and the initial Pfizer doses in our systems, we cautiously strolled through the botanical gardens (maintaining required distancing from other guests) and then zigzagged over winding paths that featured fascinating creatures at every turn. It was wonderful to be outdoors on such a gorgeous day and to hear the delighted laughs of others—young and old.
