another week gone by....

This is going to be really short, but soon, I hope I will be able to fill in the blanks. I am exhausted. There is no reason in particular, other than having a 5 month old, and the string of Jewish holidays that have just concluded. This week is the first "full" week we have had in the last month. This last month has been rough, between Rosh Hashanah, Yom Kippur, Sukkot, Shmini Atseret and Simchat Torah, mixed in with the regular weekly Shabbat, well, it just makes it down right crazy running from holiday to holiday. For the totally un-initiated, we celebrate our holidays fully, we don't use electricity, but no, we don't sit in the dark (we use either timers or leave lights on) we don't cook if we can help it (although on the holiday we can cook, on Shabbat we can't - we try to do all the preperations before hand) we spend a lot of time in the synagogue, with friends and family, and it makes it a full time/day.

However, it is now 10:24pm and I need to get some sleep... more later... and hopefully this will all make more sense as time goes by....
