"Rascal Flatts"

This is my favorite country music band: RASCAL FLATTS! Today I was kinda blue and missing Atlanta and the many years I lived there... This music reminds me of her streets, my friends, my family, jr, my time there -the good ones and the bad ones, and FITO...

(Nah... Ain't cheesy!



"Bless The Broken Road"

I set out on a narrow way many years ago
Hoping I would find true love along the broken road
But I got lost a time or two
Wiped my brow and kept pushing through
I couldn't see how every sign pointed straight to you
Every long lost dream led me to where you are
Others who broke my heart they were like northern stars
Pointing me on my way into your loving arms
This much I know is true
That God blessed the broken road
That led me straight to you

I think about the years I spent just passing through
I'd like to have the time I lost and give it back to you
But you just smile and take my hand
You've been there you understand
It's all part of a grander plan that is coming true

Every long lost dream led me to where you are
Others who broke my heart they were like northern stars
Pointing me on my way into your loving arms
This much I know is true
That God blessed the broken road
That led me straight to you

Now I'm just rolling home
Into my lover's arms
This much I know is true
That God blessed the broken road
That led me straight to you

That God blessed the broken road
That led me straight to you

Cambio de fondo a pedido de Lucas. Por aburrido, insulso, poco interesante...

Hoy alrededor de las 2pm sono una sirena. Todos los viernes, 40 minutos y 10 minutos antes de Shabbat suena la sirena para advertir a todos que Shabbat esta por comenzar. Esta es bastante particular.

Sin embargo hoy, martes, fue una sirena bien fuerte. Distinta. Alarmante y MUY diferente a la de Shabbat. La verdad es que me asusto bastante porque se que cuando hay sirenas es para advertir a la poblacion que el pais esta en estado de guerra o en alerta. La alarma habra sonado por unos cinco minutos laaaaaaaaaargos.

Se me enfrio el cuerpo en un instante. Mire por la ventana y vi gente parada mirando, como perpleja, paralizada. Se me cruzaron todo tipo de pensamientos por mi cabeza. Especialmente porque, como recordaran, vivo en una zona donde hay bastantes arabes. Y especialmente en este tiempo donde las noticias se leen en todos los diarios del mundo acerca de la alianza del Hamas. En fin, se termino la sirena. Me cambie y sali en camino al trabajo.

Me tomo el colectivo de todos los dias. Hacemos unos metros y un carro de la policia cruzaba la calle de lado a lado y no dejaba pasar autos ni transeuntes. Mi miedo fue mayor. A los diez minutos se escuchan unos disparos. El corazon latia como cuando corres esa cuadra para alcanzar al bondi que se te va... esta vez con preocupacion...

Despues de 45 minutos nos dejan pasar. Llego al trabajo y me cuentan que hoy habia una especie de prueba, un famoso "drill". Gracias a D-s fue solo un susto.



Today around 2pm a loud siren went off. Every Friday, around 40 minutes and 10 minutes before Shabbat a siren goes off to warn us all that Shabbat is about to start. This siren is very unique one.

Nevertheless today, Tuesday, a different kind of siren went off... was a very loud one... Alarming and VERY different from the one from Shabbat. The truth is that I got scared because I was told there are sirens to warn the civilians when there's a war or a military alert.

The alarm today went off for about five minutes, the longest five minutes ever! Can you imagine what goes through your head in a moment like this after reading so many news about Hamas and the Palestinean Government alliance. It gave me chills for a moment.

I checked out through the window and saw people watching, they stood like frozen and seemed to look perplex while hearing this disturbing sound blasting. All type of thoughts crossed my mind. (Keep in mind I live in an area where there's a large population of Arabs)

After the siren finally stopped I got ready to work and headed to catch the bus. Once on the bus we got few meters on the road and we had to stop cause there was a police car blocking the street from side to side.

The policemen didn't let cars or people walking by to come across the area. At that moment my fear was greater. I didn't understand what could possibly be, although I was fearing for the worst. After ten minutes you could hear some shootings. At that moment my heart pumped like when you run breathless to catch a bus only few meters away...

...After 45 minutes they let us go...

Once I got to work they told me today there was a drill from the army... Thanks G-d it was only a drill...

"Check this out"

My co-worker and friend from Atlanta, GA and I used to talk about art and the artistic talent we both have in different venues. I often encouraged her to prepare different pieces of arts and go for it to a very famous and reknown fair that takes place in Atlanta every year.

I just received an email from her, Judi, letting me know she did open a website where she has some pieces of her wonderful art.

Judi and I worked for the same plantation, I meant company, for the past 5 years and we always had a great time and enjoyed long lasting conversations.

Here I have the pleasure to introduce to you JUDI GAMBLE, my friend: (Click on the image)

Judi: everything has a place in time... This is yours! Congrats!

"Mis Sobrinos"

Hace un tiempo que no he "blogeado", es que estaba haciendo una pausa mientras disfrutaba un momento unico!
Despues de nueve largos anios, conoci a mis sobrinos... Que felicidad poder conocerles, abrazarles y mal criarlos...
Como los extrano!
