Hebrew to English transliteration and translation
of Masoretic Text Psalm23

<------------

         א מזמור לדוד יהוה רעי לא אחסר

ב בנאות דשא ירביצני על מי מנחות ינהלני

 ג נפשי ישובב ינחני במעגלי צדק למען שמו

ד גם כי אלך בגיא צלמות לא אירא רע כי אתה עמדי שבטך ומשענתך המה ינחמני

 ה תערך לפני שלחן נגד צררי דשנת בשמן ראשי כוסי רויה

ו אך טוב וחסד ירדפוני כל ימי חיי ושבתי בבית יהוה לארך ימים

Su boca que besa, borra la tristeza, calma la amargura. 3b  Por una cabeza, si ella me olvida qué importa perderme mil veces la vida, para qué vivir.  **	caused-by a head, all  the insanities. her mouth  that it-makes-contact, it-deletes the sadness, it-calms the bitterness.  caused-by a head, if she about-me she-forgets what it-matters to-lose-myself thousand times the life, for what to-be-alive.
4    Cuántos desengaños, por una cabeza. Yo juré mil veces, no vuelvo a insistir. Pero si un mirar me hiere al pasar, sus labios de fuego (su boca de fuego)      otra vez quiero besar.	how-many lost-illusions by a head. I  I-swore thousand times, not I-return to repeat. but if  a  look me it-hurts when it-passes, her lips of fire (her mouth of fire) one-more time I-desire to-kiss.
5   Basta de carreras, se acabó la timba.  ¡Un final reñido ya no vuelvo a ver! Pero si algún pingo llega a ser fija el domingo, yo me juego entero. ¡Qué le voy a hacer..!	it-is-enough  of  races, itself  it-finished  the-card-game.  an end of-tight-race now not I-return to see! but if some horse it-becomes certain on-the Sunday, I myself   I-play  whole-number what  about-it  I'm-going  to do..!

Floor Replacement

I replaced the floor in my room.
Before I came back, this room was not repaired and was occupied by unwanted items. Old and damaged floor had given rise to certain feeling of uneasiness to me.

It had no insulation, I installed Styrofoam thickness 40mm as underfloor insulation.

Tree climbing slug

It has reached red line to blue mark 20cm above in 1 minute.
It climbs very fast!

They are in the garden recently. They don't try to run away when I approach them.
They are very quiet.
