Yesterday was more of the same day. I drove those 40 km to the grand kids with fear and thoughts
and planing where to stop if I here the siren.If I am on the road I have to stop on the side, turn off the car and lay in the field holding my arms on my head.Thank god it was a quiet day.
Now it is cease fire for 12 hours. We will see.
If you don't go to visit the grandchildren you are in essence giving in to this war. I hope the ceasefire lasts the designated 12 hours ... if only reason prevailed it could be for much longer. I am guessing that by laying on the ground with your hands on your head helps in not seeing what is going or above ... you are a brave grand mother!!
ReplyDeleteStay safe!
Shirley, So far it is quiet here. 4 houes more to go till the end of this ceasefire.I hope it will be longer.Thank you Shirley.
ReplyDeleteI have recently discovered your blog via another that I read . I am also a grandmother( in England ) so I feel for you and what you are having to go through. I have no interest in politics, and don't really know what is going on in your area, but I wish the killing would stop. Why can't humans get on with each other? I send my love and best wishes to you and your family, and my hopes that peace will come soon. X ps. I volunteer at Oxfam here, and one of my colleagues is from Israel, and I often try and help her with her english ! She is called Nava and is a lovely lady.
ReplyDeletePPs….I have wanted to comment for quite a few days now, but the words wouldn't come…I hope the above says what I meant to say. X
ReplyDeleteTank you so much Frances.I realy needed those worm words. I also don't want tp deal with politics but I see that that is a lot of missunderstanding about our situation here.The only thing that we want is not to be target to those missiles.
DeleteIstarted this blog to improve my english.As you can see I have much to improve.Thank you again.
Hello again….I think you can see my email address if I have commented ? If you would like to write to that I would love to be a friend to you. I could help you with your english too if you would like me to do that? XX
DeleteHello Frances.
ReplyDeleteThere is no mail in your profile. You can find my mail here.
I have changed my profile to show address.
ReplyDeleteI am struggling to get my email address to you….might have done it now? I am not totally computer wise!
ReplyDeleteGot your mail. It is OK.
ReplyDeleteLet's hope this present ceasefire is the beginning of the end. But how one will ever get Hamas to stop firing those missiles, I really don't know.
ReplyDeleteThe ceasefire is only from one side, Hamas threw rockets this morning .
ReplyDeleteCeasefire with Hamas = we cease, they fire.
DeleteThinking of you and your family.
