Thoughts

I'm not in a very good mood. So I really should not be anywhere near this computer...

You probably don't care.....but a 16 year old boy was killed when someone threw a grenade near the town of Karmiel in Israel today.. Yes. The Jerusalem Post reports on the story. Nobody will care. He was an Arab. Killed by other Arabs. Not newsworthy.

On  the other hand, a Jew attached a birdhouse in their yard today!!! Did you hear that?! A birdhouse!!! International outcry.....press the red button!!! Somebody call the president....

**sigh**

I am feeling overwhelmed today. I was actually planning on going to Karmiel today to checkout their "Toys R Us" there. Good that I didn't go. I don't like the sounds of bombs. I guess I should be grateful to the Almighty for my down mood that kept me from going out.

Then I searched the news to see how they would implicate Israel for this tragedy, this time I only found this headliner:

"Israel Grenade hurled toward carwash in Arab village of Kafr Rama near Carmiel, the owner of which is a known figure to the police." (source: Allvoice)

Hmmm, maybe they meant to put a period after Israel? Not sure.

Then I searched for some good news to offset the bad news, ten I found this:

"Israel Develops System to Neutralize Nuclear Waste" (source: A7 News)

Well that must be why everyone is against Israel and why no one has a problem with it getting destroyed? Hah!

I got some grass seeds even though I'm very intimidated by yard work. But I've got to get started with gardening and setting up vegetable growth over here.

Taking on a new task in my already busy day puts me in a not so good mood. I see all the mess the kids do and it seems so unsurmountable. Plus I don't have much help from anyone. Mr. Blackfirewhitefire is not an outdoorsy working type of guy. Anyway, he works.

Its okay. count my blessings and be glad I have a plot of land.  Even if I wait another year, its okay. Its okay.  Its okay.

Another good news: I found a great, inexpensive zimmer my family and I can stay at to visit Jerusalem!! No hotels!!! Yay!!! A zimmer is a little apartment that people convert into their own personal hotel room. So they can only take on a few or one client at a time. Zimmer in German means "room."  I'm excited and hope everything works out.

Here's a really funny line. Its a doozy if your awake. This is in regards to Major Hasan, the 40 year old psychiatrist who got PTSD from dealing with people who had PTSD. He wrote an interesting manefesto back in college and recently shouted at the top of his lungs "Allah hu..." while shooting down US soldiers:

"Yet the gunman and his motive remain an enigma." (source: NYTimes)

 If you don't get the joke there. don't worry about it. Its not so important.
