I heard about it at three thirty this morning. I fell asleep with the radio on again. It woke me. It has been in the papers here for days that an attack was forthcoming. But I was still hoping it would not come.
For now all I can only hope that whoever has replaced Peretz remembers to take the lens caps off his binoculars.
.
I think of you constantly, I do my best to think good thoughts peaceful thoughts. But still I fear for your safety.
Take care
I wish
No I will
try to think of something beautiful to write, something joyous and life affirming.
But I am just angry now.
Sorry

hi judih'glad i found your blog
as was thinking about you
being there
i have to say
congrats to palestinian president abbas
very hopeful in that direction
this heavy hand into gaza
is different than the expanded air war into lebanon
which was illogical
here the israelis are forced to be more concentrated
which is what they should have done in southern lebanon
callin up th reserves
hillary get ready!

this is my life, at the moment
Hey, the newspaper published a list of which areas are getting the most qassam rockets and mortar fire, and my area was on top.
88 hits since the beginning of Operation Cast Lead.
But our area makes the least noise because we're kibbutzniks and we're more or less used to dealing with what there is, and also because the media prefers to concentrate on those making the most noise.
In any case, there's my blog, in which i say more or less how i'm dealing, but i don't spell out landing locations of rocket cause it's uncool to print that kind of security info.
As I tell my parents and mykids, don't worry. Worry never helps.
And we have a shelter about 14 seconds from the house, so that's within the 15 second window we have when the warning alert goes off.
There's no school - it's been postponed until the area is more secure. The kids are scattered around, more or less unable to concentrate, even though 'online learning' has been suggested.
It's saturday - let's see what the day brings.
Thanks for commenting.

Man, I am glad to see you have not lost your sense of humor.
In Texas they got a saying that is just the opposite of what we used to say back east.
In Texas they say, “Hang tight” we used to say, “Hang loose.”
Hang in there j, I know it is a cliché these days but Abe Lincoln said it too “This too shall pass away” and I know it will.
Cheer up, the longest war ever was only a hundred years long. I remember something about a Hundred Years War from my high school history class. History is a lot of laughs. I used to love it.
I got a million questions about civil defense I would like to ask you but I am sure for your own safety you can’t answer. Will talk about after the war maybe.
I like those songs you posted to your blog
I been thinking about doing a riff on that Neil Young song, call it Young Man Take A Look At My Life I was a lot like you are.
Love peace and taco grease from the Republic of Texas.
ps
This is going to be my nom de guerre for the duration.
you know me sister
still crazy after all these years
so I won't appologize to you for my sick sense of humor.
