Today there had been the thought that Dh and I might do more work together, but I wasn't really needed and we didn't want to ask this in-laws to watch the kids again, so I watched them.  It rained all day and for some reason both the kids were really grumpy.  I suppose that had to do with me being a crazy b*tch.  I didn't really want to but I lost it and kinda went ballistic on everyone.  Dh is so flippin' understanding and patient with me that sometimes it spooks me.  Why isn't he like other people.  Had I flipped out like that on anyone else they would start screaming back at me.  But he doesn't.  He tries to help until he realizes it's no good and then waits for me to cool of.  The I cry and everything is ok.  It's weird and highly unproductive.  I got to figure out a better way of communicating this time of month.

Besides acting like a lunatic, I started knitting Dh his hacker mitts.  They seem like they are huge, but they're only seven stitches longer and a few rows higher.  But they seem huge.  I don't know if I'll have enough to complete both mitts.  If not I have to go buy more yarn on Wednesday when I got to Alex for library story time.  That wouldn't be to bad.  I like yarn.:)  I've decided that the white yarn that I have I am going to paint with koolaid.  I will get a couple packs sometime when I go out (maybe Wednesday).  I'm so excited about painting my own yarn!  I have discovered that I really like to make up my own patterns for things at this point.  I have so little time to sit and concentrate on a pattern that it gets really frustrating for me.  I like simple patterns and small projects right now.  Mitts are great.  I'll have to write up my pattern when I finish with Dh's.

My friend Brittney is expecting her baby to come sometime in the next week or so.  I am so excited for her, and I hope I can be a good support for her.  But I'm scared to death.  What if she wants me there?  What if I don't know what to do?  What if I hover to much?  What if I'm no help at all?  What if I'm worrying about all this for nothing? lol  I over thinking things so dramatically.  The other night I packed up two big backs with everything I would need in case she called me and wanted me to come over.  Reminded me of the time we had a tornado warning and twenty minutes after I found out I had the basement packed with all our important stuff and enough to live off of for a week.  I like to be prepared.  Lol

So that's what's been happening here the last couple days.  Up, down and all around.  The good, the bad and the ugly.

Time for walls and "roof". This time I did the work and dude was jumping around with the camera. Just good he took not less than 87 pictures, since he thought it was supposed to be pictures of his wife in all kinds of different angles - rather than pictures of the building of the sukkah. Well at least he got a few of the 87 right.

And we're done with the walls.

And done! See how happy dude is... :)

Now there are only a few things left.. The decorations!! - We will do that together with the kids on Monday morning.. And of course one more thing- to actually use the sukkah, to be there.. to eat in there - every day during Sukkot.

Chag Sameach

Btw. more photos will be available for friends on facebook.

The treaty is of vital importance against the backdrop of NATO's ongoing eastward expansion, Borodin said.

In addition, an increase in bilateral military-technological cooperation would contribute to the generation of more jobs in the two countries’ military enterprises.

The Supreme State Council of the Union State will conduct a session in Moscow on Nov. 2, with discussions regarding future military-technological cooperation high on the agenda.-

NEW DELHI, October 10 (Compass Direct News) – After police in the eastern state of Orissa confirmed this week that Maoists killed Hindu nationalist leader Swami Laxmanananda Saraswati, a Hindu extremist group circulated allegedly forged documents in an attempt to implicate a local church in the Aug. 23 murder.

The Hindu Jagaran Samukhya (Society for Revival of Hinduism or HJS) circulated documents saying the plan to kill Saraswati in Kandhamal district was made at a meeting at Bethikala Church on May 25 attended by 17 people following a briefing and command from religious leaders, the Press Trust of India news agency reported yesterday.

Local Christian leaders responded by saying they will file defamation charges.

“We will file both civil and criminal defamation cases against the person who made such allegations,” Father Joseph Kalathil from the Catholic Archbishop House in Bhubaneswar and the Rev. Fr. Prafulla Ku Sabhapati, president of the Bethikala Parish Council of Kandhamal, said in a statement. “Not only our signatures were forged, the contents of the documents were also fabricated.”

On Oct. 6 Orissa state police confirmed that Maoists killed Saraswati, a day after the chief of the Orissa unit of the banned Communist Party of India-Maoist, Sabyasachi Panda, told NDTV 24X7 news that his organization was behind the murder.

The Maoists killed Saraswati because he was a key leader of the Vishwa Hindu Parishad (World Hindu Council or VHP), Panda told the channel. The VHP, he said, used non-tribal traders’ money to build VHP’s youth wing, Bajrang Dal, and ran a campaign against Christians, falsely accusing them of forced conversions and killing cows, considered holy by Hindus.

“This forced us to attack him,” Panda said. “We left two letters claiming responsibility for the murders. But the [Chief Minister Naveen] Patnaik government suppressed those letters. It is a BJP [Hindu nationalist Bharatiya Janata Party] government; they will support the VHP. The state government made it look like Christian groups were responsible for the attack. The Christian community in Orissa does not have any Maoist organization supporting them here.”

There were also reports, however, of the Orissa police having arrested three tribal Christians in connection with Saraswati’s murder. The Indian Express reported that the three had confessed their involvement.

A representative of the Christian Legal Association told Compass that according to sources, the police had tortured the three Christians to pressure them to confess a crime they did not commit.

After the assassination of Saraswati, Hindu extremist groups blamed local Christians and began attacks on them, their houses and their churches. The worst violence against Christians in modern India erupted in spite of the Orissa police and media stating on the day of the murder that suspected Maoists killed Saraswati.

According to the All India Christian Council, more than 60 people have been killed, more than 18,000 injured and around 4,500 houses and churches destroyed in the “retributive” violence. Two Christian women, including a nun, were also gang-raped. The violence, which later spread to at least 14 districts of Orissa, has left more than 50,000 people homeless.

 

Attacks Continue

Orissa’s Kandhamal district remained tense even 48 days after the violence began.

Yesterday about 15 houses were burned down by a mob in the Lansaripalli village in Kantamal Block of neighboring Boudh district, The Hindu reported. The attackers came from the Gochhapada area of Kandhamal district.

“Thursday’s was the third incident in Boudh district,” added the daily. “More than 100 houses were burnt down in two separate attacks in the past few days.”

On Wednesday (Oct. 8), a mob burned and looted at least 25 houses belonging to Christians in the Balligada village under Daringbadi police station in Kandhamal’s Nuagam Block, Father Ajay Singh of the Catholic Archdiocese of Bhubaneswar told Compass.

On Tuesday (Oct. 7), over five houses were torched in Jalespanga area under Phiringia police jurisdiction in Kandhamal. Another house was burned in the Sujeli village of G. Udayagiri Block the same day.

The Hindu also said the more than 16,000 Christians living in various relief camps were not returning to their villages, fearing attacks on them if they refused to convert to Hinduism.

Fr. Singh from the Bhubaneswar Archdiocese told Compass that over 12,000 Christians from various relief camps had moved out of Kandhamal to other districts and states, as they feared more attacks.

 

Supporting Violence

The president of the VHP, Ashok Singhal, told Zee News channel on Sunday (Oct. 5), “What Hindu organizations including the VHP, the Bajrang Dal and the RSS [Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh, India’s chief Hindu nationalist group] are doing in Orissa is all legal and is the reaction of the murder of VHP leader Saraswati, who was like Jesus Christ to us.”
