orange

Yes, I, too, am still walking around with orange. An orange bracelet and orange ribbons on my bags and an orange ribbon on the front door. Cosmic X wrote about it, but I'm having trouble getting his blog to work, so you'll have to get the link from the sidebar.

I see many places, buildings, windows, cars etc with the sign "lo n'slach." We won't forgive.

Erev Rosh Hashannah is a time for "cheshbon nefesh" accounting for our soul of everything we've done this year. It's a very sad time. Tisha B'Av is still in the air. There was no Shabbat Nachamu, no TU B'Av, no summer fun.

I came back into teaching feeling heavy hearted, no enthusiasm.

The rain clouds are supposed to promise a blessing, and all I feel is the threat of storms. Maybe that's why all the flooding in the states. Nobody's immune.
