"יהיה בסדר"...or, Lauren's Aliyah Something: Thursday, November 22, 2011
http://laurensaliyahsomething.blogspot.com/2012/11/thursday-november-22-2011.html
Thursday, November 22, 2012. Thursday, November 22, 2011. One pie is done, the other is finishing up. My floor is drying after spilling water all over it. I really need to change my clothes because water splashed on them and now they are wet. On the up side, I did take off my wet sneakers and socks so my feet are no longer going squish-squish. Eli's coming home for Shabbat (or at least he's supposed to)! My feet are dry. More later, after Thanksgiving dinner. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

"יהיה בסדר"...or, Lauren's Aliyah Something: I really need to update more often. OR, Having an Oleh Day When You're Almost Considered Not an Olah Chadasha
http://laurensaliyahsomething.blogspot.com/2012/12/i-really-need-to-update-more-often.html
Thursday, December 20, 2012. I really need to update more often. OR, Having an Oleh Day When You're Almost Considered Not an Olah Chadasha. I kind of feel guilty about not blogging or updating as much as I used to. But this is an aliyah blog, so.I don't know.maybe if I let it evolve into a "living in Israel" blog I'll be inclined to update more frequently? Today was an oleh adventure day. Actually, Monday was too. Start with today. This past Monday I went to Misrad Hachinuch because I had to bring them t...

"יהיה בסדר"...or, Lauren's Aliyah Something: Updates, Operation Pillar of Defense, Day 7
http://laurensaliyahsomething.blogspot.com/2012/11/updates-operation-pillar-of-defense-day.html
Tuesday, November 20, 2012. Updates, Operation Pillar of Defense, Day 7. Taken from an email I sent. I just have no energy to write another update. On the road by Beitar there was a rock-throwing attack (NOT a shooting attack, as originally stated) on a car that wounded one woman; she was taken in serious condition to Hadassah Ein Karem. Also a chayal, Joseph Fartuk, was killed by a mortar shell; Baruch Dayan Emet. I think those are the major things over here. They are expecting calls. My adventures as a...

http://laurensaliyahsomething.blogspot.com/2013/12/and-were-back.html
Monday, December 30, 2013. Fitting that my revival of my aliyah blog should be on an aliyahniversary- it's my fourth aliyahniversary. This time I'm spending it in Israel, unlike my second one. In case my loyal readers haven't noticed (do I even HAVE loyal readers? I've taken a break from my blog. I just forgot to let you all know. Let's do a countdown of four exciting things that happened since I made aliyah four years ago:. 4 I had a baby. Sowhat's happened in the past 6 months? Now that I'm back I'm pl...

"יהיה בסדר"...or, Lauren's Aliyah Something: Birth (and pregnancy) Israel-style
http://laurensaliyahsomething.blogspot.com/2014/01/birth-and-pregnancy-israel-style.html
Tuesday, January 7, 2014. Birth (and pregnancy) Israel-style. Things are run very differently here than in the States. Very differently. Goes like this (in a normal pregnancy):. The doctor does not see you every week in your last month. If you go past your due date then you go to the women's clinic as a walk-in for "maakav herayon odef" (overdue monitoring) every few days until you give birth. Then you stop :). If you have anything out of the ordinary (say, a kid from work kicks you in the stomach or you...

"יהיה בסדר"...or, Lauren's Aliyah Something: Drills
http://laurensaliyahsomething.blogspot.com/2013/05/drills.html
Thursday, May 30, 2013. This week we had a missile drill. I've written about these before, but they amuse me. Not because I think that incoming missiles are amusing, but because of what happens during them. I was bringing something over to somebody and the siren went off- I forgot that it was supposed to go off, so when it went off the woman I was at said, "Oh, do you want to come in?

"יהיה בסדר"...or, Lauren's Aliyah Something: Being Taken Care Of
http://laurensaliyahsomething.blogspot.com/2012/11/being-taken-care-of.html
Monday, November 19, 2012. Being Taken Care Of. One of the amazing things about Israel is the caring; as much as there are internal politics, there is underneath is all an amazing sense of caring and family. In case you missed the memo, Eli (and another approximately 75,000 other reservists) got called up on Friday. Yesterday was Sunday, the first workday of the week in Israel. Of course everyone was talking about מבצע עמוד ענן. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). View my complete profile. There was an e...
