Just keeping on

I am so tired. Really tired. I am going to bed in a minute and cuddle under the comforter. Amalia is downstairs hanging out with Abby and Alice and Savvy. I didn't get home till after 8 tonight. Andrea told me that even though I am learning new stuff, that it should be on company time, not on my time. But I am stubborn and I wanted to finish my own pages, not have somebody help me.

I have been busy for the past couple of days -- Thanksgiving, family visiting, work...and then a dear man from our synagogue, George Gaber, died Wednesday night and with Mira and Madi both out of town, I have been doing some phone calling and list-making to help with funeral plans...it is amazing to me how people at Beth Shalom come together and support each other and are so glad to volunteer for whatever is needed...it's really a warm and enveloping community.

I am glad to be a part of it and it feels good to be needed.

And, a wonderful thing...Amalia spotted my purple pashmina (well, faux pashmina, but I love it because I did, after all, buy it from a street display in Paris!) right downstairs hanging over a chair. I have been looking and looking for that all week, and feeling sad that I had lost it...and it feels so cuddly and warm now.

Sweet dreams to me and to you!
