We haven't been having our regular basic Judaism class at the temple because of board meetings, so I'm just reading as muchas I can of the book the Rabbi told me to get and studying some work by Rabbi Joseph Telushkin.

I guess this will be my last Christmas.  We wrapped presents yesterday and thankfully we are done with our shopping.  Putting up the tree today.

Thankful thaat I don't have to go back to work until Jan. 4!
