Good night ladies...
without getting too religious
I do not think
*this*
is what God had in mind
for humanity
off to bed now
hoping for a quiet night
and a new world in the morning
Margo, my heart is aching as I watch the news reports. Have you and your family thought of going south?
My nephew will be old enough for the Israeli army in 10 years, my niece in 14. My sister and brother in law made the decision to raise the kids here, but have every intention of sending them for mandatory army service, as they are also Israeli citizens.
No answers, no solutions, just an aching heart and desire for peace and safety for all.

Evacuate? Me?
My bike is in the LBS - I *told* you a few posts ago
Seriously... We are in a tiny place of no strategic significance - apart from my presence of course!Only danger is the same random chance as anywhere else in the north. Or someone miscalculating the angle of refraction (or whatever it is) on the missile launcher. Now *that* is the reason you should have paid attention in trigonometry class and physics lessons!
Love you all...
Oh, well, of course, you wouldn't leave your bike! :rolleyes: I get it.
Do you think they study a lot of physics and trig in Hezbollah? Do you think I can even spell that? I guess somebody has to learn how to aim and fire the rocket launchers. ARGH.
My sister and I used to have "discussions" over who was in greater danger, her living in Tel Aviv, or me in Chi-town. You can imagine how those talks went.
Stay safe, get yer bike back. Keep us posted. L.
The headlines are breaking hearts all over. Maillotpois said it exactly right for me as well. And believe me, we are sending you more of the good protective vibes.
This is such a tragedy on so many levels.
Sending all the good vibes a Texan can muster, and that's a lot.
Margo-- how're you holding up? Were you able to get your bike back? Thinking of you-- L.
Not yet
Officially everybody in town is s'posed to be in shelters
Even when I was there on Sunday there was hardly anyone about and most of those who *were* wore uniforms and were men
Margo! Thanks for letting us hear from you. Had you much on my mind. Glad you're OK.
Well, from one Kiwi to another... I have been thinking about you and hoping you can keep to "safe" parts of whatever town you find yourself in.
Get some #8 wire, fix the bike your self and ride on back here to Middle Earth...
(For those unintiated - Kiwis can fix anything with a piece of #8 wire and a 4x2)
Be safe and may all the Gods and Goddesses of that part of the world look kindly down and agree to cease fire...
Margo -
Sending you and yours many prayers of peace!!
Denise
Shalom everyone!
Huge hugs of thanks for all the posts and PM's. Am off-line on Friday evening till Saturday evening so what a surprise to see everything and even a total thread - Anyone Hear from margo49?
Come on Pooks-ie -Me? In trouble? I *am* trouble!
I am sitting here with my fingers still bent up and my bike in the shop (not to mention the beak which tho' beautiful feels like it has been clobbered by a 4 X 2 RoadRaven).
I ain't goin' nowhere.
Neither of course is the government or the war. Every day more missiles over here, more bombs over there. (More as in an increasing number on yesterday, not more as in again). Massive Reserve call-up in process. And all over TV the politicians and generals are telling us we're making progress:confused: :confused: Now if everything was going so well would one not expect to see families having picnics in the summer evenings rather that deserted towns and military funerals???.
Another demonstration against the war in Tel Aviv last night - a coalition of radical politicians, feminists, anarchists, a Reserve call up refuser support group, Jewish-Arab co-exitence activists, Mothers.
Will post every day - so you all will know I'm ok and I will try to give you some feelings and info that you may not get from your usual news sources.
(Like how my new beak is and other things to do with No.8 wire)
Shalom shalom
Bless you, Margo. Stay safe.
And don't forget to DUCK.
Reserve call up. :eek: How might this affect your family?
Thank you for checking in. Wishing for all--shalom, salam, peace. L.
