Life here

 This is another experience and challenge that life has given me. It's only been three days and it seems like much longer..

You have to be glued to your iPhone because that's where the alerts come from that missiles have been launched from Iran. These are very, very deadly and destructive missiles. Running to the shelter and waiting for the alarm, and the sound of explosions outside.

Several times a day and several times during the night. A kind of Russian roulette when I go to the small supermarket ten minutes away from home, and the shower is also a kind of gamble. No one wants to be caught by an alarm in the middle of a shower.                                                                                                                 I'm fine and will continue to update. Thank you to all the wonderful people who say a kind word and care. You are true friends.

    1. The Iranian people and the Israelis are united this time in an attempt to return to the people the peace they deserve. It's only the Iranian regime that's causing all this horror to happen. I don't understand which sides you're talking about.

  3. I saw a photo of my grandson's safety area, and although it was clean and equipped, I wouldn't like to be a claustrophobic person :(
    Israel must be just about the smallest country in the universe (not counting islands) and you need green forest areas to breathe in. Be safe, sister.

  5. Trying to live a normal life must be so difficult. It's so unfair.

    1. Yes, it's not fair, I try to maintain a routine as much as possible.

  6. I've been thinking of you a lot. Hoping you stay safe and so sad that you have to endure this again. Thank you for your very local comments on the Iranian people. I needed to hear that, because we tend to hear about government moves without knowing if they're a national sense. I know Iranians have been resisting greatly, though, against terrible reprisals. Praying for your safety now.

    1. Thank you. People don't see the whole picture and because they hate Trump so much they don't understand the situation as it is. Thank you for thinking of me. Every kind word is so important here.

  8. Thank you Ellen, as much as it depends on us we try to protect ourselves. Always on alert to hear the alarms and run to the shelter, everything else is just fate and good luck that will be with us.

  10. Thank you Linda, you always say the right word at the right time. I read your blog all the time, I don't comment because there is little time between alarms. It will come back.
