No that is not right! You get to celebrate TWO days! One in each place!!! Maybe your new grandson will be born on your birthday?!?!

That is so funny about the language! I would think that you would be good at Pilates. I think you can get a free month of the Peloton app if you would like it.

I can't wait to hear about the new baby!!!!♥

I just changed my ticket…I’m leaving on the 22nd, looks like they are inducing early at 38 weeks. I will be crossing the dateline so my birthday will not exist (the 23rd). Arrive the 24th 🙏🏻

I hope you continue on too! The Peloton app is good even if you don't have a treadmill or bike. It has stand alone classes - yoga, meditation, Pilates (not reformer obviously) strength training, body weight exercises too! The instructors are so motivating.

This is so exciting-the birth of your second grandson!! ♥

I didn’t realize, I thought you need to have the bike. The price of these Pilates, you’re right, classes is kind of ridiculous. I need it now and ayla is looking for classes for me in australia. During Covid I could exercise pretty much on my own but I know I am just too easy on my myself. It is too bad that there are no classes for beginners where I go. So I feel like I need extra attention (that’s when they start speaking English to me - not realizing it’s not a language issue, it’s a Pilates issue!!) and that other people in the class are annoyed. We’ll see how it goes 🙃

It’s very exciting 🙏🏻🙌

I knew my time in Israel was off when I no longer recognized the voices on the radio stations; when the names of the newscasters were new to me but not to anyone else; when the music I love became music everyone else loved. And yet...Israel is still SO much a home for me...and my kids!

Exactly - the newscasters! It’s home but man, it can be tough. I wasn’t prepared for the massive change in this country and/or the change in me. למען האמת I won’t feel I have a home until I can have a dog.

But I’m at Elkalai, having קפה שחור and it’s divine..xoxo

I took reformer Pilates for the past year and a half. I really enjoyed it but I gave it up over November and December and found that I didn't miss it and its high price. I now just use my Peloton app and still love it and all the different workouts. ☺☻♥

I hope I can stick to it - even when I’m off to Australia. Dramatic drop in my steps according to my phone since my Fitbit broke, obviously I need external push.

Ayla 35 weeks…I’m flying there Feb 4. I don’t have peloton. I wish
