The past few days have brought several observations.Little things: like wondering why I was not hungry at all during Yom Kippur. If anything, I was a little zoned out. I finally came home and drank some coffee because I was afraid that I would fall asleep during the performance that the choir—that I am a part of—was giving. I wish that I could say that I was occupied in prayer. No—I just wasn’t there at all.I’ve been spending money, which I normally hate to do: buying a new sleeper sofa, buying a new comforter set for the back bedroom, buying fall decorations. I am trying to be a proper host for the coming Thanksgiving when family comes in. Now, if only I can find a maid. Everything hurts, right now, and I haven’t even done that much. I had to sit down and rest after replacing the old spread on the bed.Meanwhile, the Internet and TV has been a drug to keep me away from most writing. That was obvious over Yom Kippur when I swore off using the computer at all for 24 hours. Hard to do! I managed, and I have tried to stay away for a while. I am being dragged back in. I shall put myself on a Facebook diet. That has been the real drug in the past few weeks.
