Life is getting ever so complicated, just a quick blurb to
bring everyone up to speed. MeTo has decided to get back in touch with his
religious side and just in time, as September contains two of the most holy of
holidays in the Jewish faith. I have been alongside him every step of the way
and quite supportive and it is leading me to get closer to God in my Christian
faith.
September also happens to be my busiest month, as far as
birthdays go. As I have said before I love my Virgos. So there was a trip to
Philly to celebrate the 15th and a card was sent to celebrate my grandmother’s
70th birthday. Then the 19th which would have been MeTo’s birthday party turned
out to be Rosh Hashanah, so instead we had a big dinner with his immediate
family and I covered desert and the Challah, MeTo did lamb chops and roasted
vegetables and Mom made matzo ball soup and Kasha Varnishkes. It was Jewish
feast.
The day after was MeTo’s actual birthday and we spent the
day in the big apple. His parents got him two tickets to Wicked and I truly
enjoyed it. It required some digesting for MeTo but he came around. We then had
real New York pizza and enjoyed central park and the sites that make the big
apple what it is.
I went to my first Jewish religious ceremony on a Friday and
the next day I threw MeTo a great party. 12 of his friends showed and we ate
and danced and sang. We both had a wonderful time.
Sunday started Yom Kippur and I made a big meal of collard
greens, candy yams, fried chicken, and collie flower for our pre-fast meal.
Then in the early afternoon we went to services at the temple. I was really
getting into the Jewish faith. Our breakfast was with mom and I found out some
disturbing information about the New York City public school system.
That was the gist of my September and I hope to have greater
details for you soon. So keep checking to see what’s new.
