We’re about to get ready to leave for Kol Nidre services; this will be Jeff’s first time fasting, and he is definitely not looking forward to it. I can’t say I’ll miss visiting Jack in the Box mid-fast, though!

For those of you who are fasting, may you have an easy fast. And may you be inscribed and sealed for a good year.

Shana Tova!

Jeff’s school runs an annual fund-raising carnival; in the past, it’s been in the spring and called “Beach Blast”, but this year, they decided to have it early in the year, and they renamed it Blast from the Past. The courtyard was filled with old cars, there were games and music, and a good time was had by all. Unfortunately, by the time we got over there, they were out of Tri-Tip, so Diane and I walked over to a local restaurant for dinner…but Jeff made sure to use up all of the coupons we’d bought anyway.

It’s been a busy week — so I’ll be happy to be able to say Shabbat Shalom and turn off the computer for a couple of days. Monday is Yom Kippur, and I’ll be spending Tuesday and Wednesday on the road (all the way to Armonk for a five-hour meeting, oy!). I’m already looking forward to next weekend….
