Quick Update and more to come soon!

  1. Our Vonage is up and running. Sometimes there is a delay, but we will work out the kinks soon. Remember, we are 8 hours ahead. Oren’s old cell phone number is our Vonage number.
  2. Suzanne is swamped with school, but enjoying it all – except Statistics.
  3. I have had and will have more interviews for jobs, but I am finishing two Masters Classes through UTD this month and continuing Ulpan (Hebrew studies). I think I will have a job within a month and if not the best, another one will come along.
  4. We are just about settled in to our place…Pictures of the apartment to come.
  5. We had fajitas we made ourselves last weekend. Lafa was our tortilla, but everything else we bought or made… Lafa (not sure on the spelling) is an Arabic flat bread, thicker than a tortilla and larger.
  6. Suzanne is warm! We had a 50 year old fuel heater installed yesterday. It’s not that cold yet, but getting there…
  7. We look forward to any visitors, so book now before we sell out.
  8. Happy early Thanksgiving! We are lucky that my former boss, Mark Kreditor, is visiting his daughter in Jerusalem, so we will be dining with him at the Inbal Hotel. We wish we could share it with everyone else!
Love the Mincs (pronounced Meentz, right Karen?)
