Time for an Update

Well it’s been about 7 weeks since I last posted and for the most part everything is the same and in some ways everything is different. 

Work wise I am now 5 weeks into a new job closer to home doing Customer Service, originally working Sunday to Thursday as is the norm here in Israel, but as of 2 weeks ago now working Monday to Friday like I used to back in England.. Still taking some getting used to, as I had gotten used to the Sunday to Thursday Routine.  Still the hours are good 10-7 Monday to Thursday and well Friday is a bit exhausting as I'm working 7am till 3pm, so I have to get up at 5.30 in the morning to be at work for 7... So it’s a long day in the end.  Still I'd rather be working than twiddling my thumbs at home.  The job itself isn't too hard and everyone is pretty friendly which helps and they don't mind if I go to them to ask a question or get something checked.  Still in some ways I feel like until I've passed the 3 month mark I won't feel settled there.

At the moment I'm actually officially live alone for the first time ever.  I still live in Ramat Aviv for the moment but until that changes I am living alone.  Someone suggested before I move I need to see how I like living alone and if it is something that really suits me before I move to my next place.  I am not sure if it is or it isn't as I've never done it before.  Okay I've had times when the roommate has been away on holiday but that's not the same as being totally on your own as someone is not going to be home before you get back from work or there when you come in late.  Still I want to give it a chance and maybe my next place will be a solo pad.  Though I will miss this place in Ramat Aviv when I move on and appreciate everything my roommate and her family did for letting me move in and letting me stay for the time being, even though I haven't always demonstrated that I was appreciative of it.

Socially, it’s been a bit quiet of a last few weeks, I've managed to get out on occasion, the problem now with Thursday being the main event night here in Tel Aviv and me working Fridays, has made it slightly problematic to go out, but I will find a way round.  Though having said that this week is a bit more socialable.  As last night I hung out with friends for Noodles and a Film, tonight catching up with a friend who I've not seen for a few months, tomorrow dinner out with friends and dinner out with another friend Tuesday... so okay I am busy again... still feel like I need to be more busy but got things going on or upcoming rather.

Anyway that is it from me; I intend to post in a few weeks, what I would call my review of 2014.  For now hope you are all enjoying your Sunday and we speak soon.
