WOW

Thank you all so very much for visiting my site and for the fabulous emails. Nearly a hundred hits and over 35 emails! WOW!!! Your comments and support mean so much to me.

I have wanted this webpage for a long time, but you know how it is...the kids...work...the babies...work...the holidays...work...You get it!

And, if I'm really honest, it is a bit scary putting yourself out there for one and all to see. I'm used to it as Star Catcher and as marallyn on this blog...but a webpage takes things to another level all together. 

Just between us...I LOVE IT!!! I love the colours the design the freedom and the fact that I can finally put all my thoughts and ideas down in one place. 

I am not posting my writing just yet. But, who knows...as whatshername said so beautifully...
Ok, back to the kitchen...cooking for shabbat...cuz tomorrow really is another day!!!

Have a great day...stay safe...and thanks for dropping in.

www.marallyn.com


I did it! 

Well, I did it thanks to my brilliant and talented friend Ruty from Star-Designs
                           http://www.star-design.co.il

Thank you David for helping me keep my www!!!
Thank you Maeshey...Guy for newcomers...for the perfect title Marallyn's POV.
Thank you Ruty for making the site so gorgeous, and simple enough so that even I can figure it all out.

I am having the best time!!!

OK, OK...ask me...why do I need a webpage? Well, so glad you asked. 

I'm a writer... I'm the astrologer, Star Catcher for the Jerusalem Post... I blog..I'm on Facebook and Twitter...and Linkedin...but more than that...I just love writing and communicating and talking and shmoozing and I needed one place where it all came together.

Thus...Marallyn's POV

Great title no??? See, it isn't that I'm opinionated...well that too...but this is how I see the world...from my point of view!!! 

This page has been in the making for some time and as it evolved and developed, I realized just how right the page is and how much it is ME!. Ruty from Star Designs worked with me patiently and together we have created a page I am extremely proud of. But more important, she explained how to access the site and add or remove anything I wanted on my own. Simple, easy and so user friendly. If anyone is looking for a great web designer please contact Ruty!

Well, all you need now is to click on  www.marallyn.com 

Please come visit. I'm still working on the page and it will take a bit more time until it's all in place, but it will be a work in progress as I'll be adding blogs and astrology and thoughts and comments.

Hope you like it.

Have a good day...stay safe...and thanks for dropping in.

YOM YERUSHALAYIM

I moved to Jerusalem in August, 1970. After a couple of weeks, I packed my bags and told my roommates that I was leaving...that everyone in this city is nuts and I'm getting out of here! 

It took me twenty-four hours to realize that I am just as nuts. See, from the moment I first set foot in this country, I lost my heart. I knew I was home.

I came here after the Six Day War. Jerusalem was united. We could walk the streets of the Old City freely and go to the Wall whenever we wanted. My city!

I have three children and four grandchildren whose passports say: Place of Birth: Jerusalem.

Somewhere in heaven my Zaidi is singing!!!

Have a great day...stay safe...and thanks for dropping in.
