Noisy here

whoa!! Don't worry, it's good noise. No, not a newborn baby. It's the "labor pains" of a house under construction.

Yes, there will be another house to enrich our view. They started the building last week, just before the beginning of the The Three Weeks, when it is not considered propitious to start something new. It's a season of the year, from the 17th of Tammuz until the 10th of Av, when terrible things have happened to the Jewish People. And yes, the Arab attacks on Israel intensified this year, last week on the 17th of Tammuz, which was Thursday.

Summer is a good time to start building; the days are long, and it doesn't rain.

Building is a sign of faith, and building a home in the Land of Israel is a great mitzvah. Tizku l'mitzvot.
