I Love Feisty Women

Filed under: Girl talk, Havel-Havalim, Israeli Life — westbankmama @ 2:12 pm

I really love feisty women – perhaps because I am such a creampuff (opposites attracting and all that). So I got a kick out of this article about an 89 year old woman who decided to take up “flying” – and raised money for a good cause doing it.

This woman may not necessarily be feisty, but she did make the record books by giving birth to her eighth child – as an Israeli Knesset Member. (Which just goes to show you that we need more younger women in the Knesset….)

I don’t know if Toby is feisty, but she does a great job hosting this week’s Havel-Havalim, right here.

And last, but definitely not least, the feistiest woman in the blogosphere must be RivkA, who is battling cancer. Go on over and give her your support….

Enjoy your reading…

  1. Nice, tight post, with lots to think about. But I never would have pegged you for lacking pluck. You just exercise it gently.

  2. I like the way you tied all this up!
    And if women ran things, it would be more efficient. We don’t have wives at home to do the “women’s work.”
