Rockets Reach Ashkelon and Ashdod, Rocking Their Worlds | The Jewish Exponent
Rockets Reach Ashkelon and Ashdod, Rocking Their Worlds | The Jewish Exponent: "The Shock of Her Life
Galit Ben-Asher Yonah, 37, said it was 'the shock of my life' to discover that her home in Gan Yavne, a bedroom community near Ashdod, has come under attack.
Gan Yavne was hit for the first time on Dec. 28, and two more rockets fell on Dec. 29. It is the farthest point north that the rockets have reached to date.
Yonah, originally from Los Angeles, is the mother of two young daughters and a newborn son.
She says that she will be keeping all her children at home for the next few days.
'Never in my life did I think I would have to explain to my 5-year-old that we have to go to the basement because a bomb was falling,' she said. 'And there she was guiding me, telling me to cover my head with my hands and stay away from the window as she was taught in nursery school.'
Tal, her 5-year-old, also brought down a snack of bananas and cookies for them after the first rocket fell, telling her in a serious but calm voice that they might be sitting in the basement, which is reinforced against rockets, for a while."

Rockets Reach Ashkelon and Ashdod, Rocking Their Worlds | The Jewish Exponent: "Ashkelon, Israel
Another rocket warning siren wails and eight members of the Levi family, including a grandmother and a newborn baby, quickly cram into the small bedroom made of reinforced concrete that serves as the family's bomb shelter.
'Come on, come on! Get in!' they shout. Just before the heavy metal door slams shut, the family dog, Pick, quickly is whisked inside.
Standing shoulder to shoulder, they listen as the sound of the siren's wail trails off, replaced by the thud of the rocket landing. Returning to the television news a few minutes later, they see it has landed a few blocks away at a local soccer stadium.
Earlier in the day, another rocket landed much closer -- just across the street."

Sweet Rose: Dating Thoughts
Sweet Rose: Dating Thoughts: "for the first time in their lives, are actively seeking to date. In the past, they have just happened to come across people who they fell into relationships with. And now, they are in situations where they have to really put effort and thought into meeting someone with the goal of a relationship.
I've had the opposite experience. I've usually been in the situation where I was actively seeking partners to date. It's a much more intensive, draining and frustrating process"

The Stranger
I tried to find the original author but could not.
Hattip: My sister
The Stranger
A few years after I was born, my dad met a stranger who was new to our
small Clover, South Carolina town. From the beginning, Dad was
fascinated with this enchanting newcomer and soon invited him to live
with our family. The stranger was quickly accepted and was around from
then on.
As I grew up, I never questioned his place in my family. In my young
mind, he had a special niche. My parents were complementary
instructors: Mom taught me good from evil, and Dad taught me to obey.
But the stranger... he was our storyteller. He would keep us spellbound
for hours on end with adventures, mysteries, and comedies."
