House guests, parents visit and everyday life

Well its been a while since I blogged and I apologize for that, been distracted by other things of late.  But I am here now and its been a busy few months for me.

I shall start with work, for the most part nothing has really changed there, did have a 3 week period where I was pretty much the sole person in my department, which meant I was doing a lot of extra hours and not having much of a life outside the office which wasn't fun.  Still maybe my pay packet will reflect the hard work :-).

My apartment has seen two guests staying with me for the last month and now it feels very quiet here.  Although not having to make sure one of the guests has food and water, is entertained and taken out around Tel Aviv is nice and the other is Kiki... (sorry Dad).  Seriously though its been a nice change of pace looking after Kiki for 3 and a half weeks for Kylie while she was on her honeymoon and certainly having the company whilst been extremely busy at work was great.

My Dad stayed with me for a few nights as my parents and sister have been here in Israel for 10 days and due to the nature of how they ended up visiting for ten days, my Dad had to stay with me for the first 3 days of their trip, before they moved onto Jerusalem and then to Netanya to stay with my Uncle Edward and Auntie Laurette.  They've had a good time and are now at the airport waiting for their flight back to the UK and Storm Katie (or whatever its called).  I will miss them as I don't know the next time I will get to the UK but I will speak to them soon.

Apart from all of that, I've had time to hang out with friends and see people so its been pretty good time, just continuing to go along with the flow of life.  Anyway I hope to blog more than I have lately and speak to you all soon.
