Another siren at 1:30 PM. I can't stand it anymore.
I called my parents and just cried.
We've decided to go out and eat sushi for lunch. I call the restaurant first of all to verify that they are open. They are! Second I check if they have a bomb shelter in the area. We have a protected room, he tells me. Okay. Good.

im just a mom in indiana and i have never been through what you are going through right now. although i do have a teenage son, Michael. i read blogs when my toddlers will allow me 6am.my heart just cries please stop. i have no idea who im talking to nor would it matter. in todays world money makes you mean and love and peace seem like one of those mythical childrens tales. wouldnt it be nice if money didnt matter.i can find such beauty in some of the simplest things and ways of life. and when i look around i wonder if ayone sees it too.please know that not all americans are greedy and mean i know at least half the country is of good people who believe in god and just want to live a good life. (no matter how they beleive in g-d) have you ever heard the script this to shall pass ? im not a bible beater but im counting on that to be true. my family will think of you daily, stay safe. plse write if you can.
Giraffe or Mandarin?
Stay safe!
I could use a pizza I wonder if that pizza hut at horev is open....too bad the pizza meter closed a few months back....
I just received an e-mail from friends in Haifa reporting that their friends' son is one of the abducted soldiers, EHUD GOLDVASER. The families are desperate getting him back safe.
It is noteworthy that the demand for the safe return of the captured soldiers is one of the key demands put forward by the state of Israel for any negotiations, that this is reiterated with most of the news reports here in Canada and that it is part of the formula being developed by the UN to end the conflict. I also remember a note from an Egyptian website expressing their envy of Israel's concerns about their inhabitants.
I can't even conceive the idea of asking someone if there is a bomb shelter in your area. My hopes and prayers go out to everyone that there is a peaceful resolution.
Hey there! Your blog was featured on CNN just a few minutes ago. Let me just say that my heart goes out to you and to the people of your country. We, in the Philippines, stand by the right of your country to defend itself from such heinous acts of terror. I read an earlier post about a neighbor of yours who was Filipino. Send him/her my best wishes.
Thank you.
And If I could just add, I read anothor post of yours about how you wished the best for the Lebanese who had suffered amidst the conflict. I totally totally admire you for that, especially considering the dire situation you are also in. I can only wish that one day more people, Lebanese, Palestinian, Israeli, Syrian, Iranian, and so forth could have such tolerance and understanding for one another.
Hi carmia,
although i'm a 41year old man, i can't help but cry reading these lines, may Ha-Chem (ba'al hara'hamim) keep you and the ones you love and all israel safe and secure.
'od hapa'am hizki veimtsi.
And, when back, bsd, tell me more about your lunch...
Yehouda
My prayers are with you! Shalom for Israel - God will watch over Israel and will beat their enemies as it is written in the thora and the bible. God will never let Israel down and Israel will get a blessing to the entire world - actually, as it is already. I pray that god will protect all innocent people on both sides and will heal all wounds. I want to let you know that many christians are praying for you. Shalom Israel!
Carmia,
Going out to get a little fresh air and food is a great idea! Hope you enjoyed it.
love,
your Friends in America.
I LOVE your attitude about going out for some sushi.
I read your postings avidly.
I was an American living and working in Haifa in the sixties...I met my wife their and 2 of my three children were born there (Elisha Hospital on Wedgewood.
I wish you and all the Haifa residents all the best...
