Things in the country though are getting flipped upside down a little

Things in the country though are getting flipped upside down a little . We've had several dozen casualties today and yesterday, the south and some suburbs of beirut have been taking a beating. the airport has suffered two rounds of bombings and is out of commission, and all sea travel is completely precluded by isreali ships. which also means no gasoline imports at all since all of those come in by sea. they've also threatened other major infrastructure like our power stations and other major highways and bridges they havent already bombed. i'm just hoping that things will settle down before they get worse. I dont know how that will happen quickly though since I dont see either hizballah or israel backing down.

Anyway, all of that you can get on the news. For the most part the feeling here is waiting and seeing how this runs its course. there's not much anyone can do otherwise. tried to carry-on normally today, but most all of my meetings except one got cancelled and my drinks this evening got cut short because they were bombing the airport. For the most part, at least among the people I know, its a wave of disbelief, anger and helplessness that everyone's feeling. granted everyone has different opinions as to who they are angry at and why, but overall no one's happy feeling like a sitting duck.

No worries, Lebanese are resiliant (when given the chance to be at least). Hopefully our economy will be too. So far things aren't totally out of control and hopefully they won't get to that.

For now all is ok.
missing you all xx

always,
