Fortunately winter rain doesn't mean cold rain. At least so far. It's more like spring rain. A bit dreary, but nice to have everything getting a wash-down.
Unless it's the clothes on my clothesline. Then it's dirt that washes down from the sky.
After living in Israel for a while, I find myself thinking of myself as Israeli. It's "us," "our troops," "our" prime minister. The day Gilad Shalit came home was quite a day for me.
Most of what is missing here is nature. I have never wanted to be a city person. I miss the grass, the open spaces, the nice parks in Indiana, the nice park north of Dallas, trees, waterfalls, etc. I thought I would perk things up by buying 3 house plants. I was horrified when I got home and realized that one of them had cost me $17!!!!! It has grown 5 new leaves and dropped 20. Oh well, it's trying--probably busy growing more roots. The other two look about the same as when I got them.
