Tonight when I get home I will light a yartzeit candle to mark one year since MY MOM died. Tomorrow I will stand and say the Mourner’s Kaddish as I’ve done all year. What a ridiculous year it has been.

Since I don’t feel like being too sad and emotional I will also let you know that it is also the end of NaBloPoMo. Thank goodness. The next time I think it is a good idea to sign up to write something everyday (except Shabbat) please remind me what happened this month. Too much extra anxiety. Goodbye NaBloPoMo. I will not miss you.

Also, Bette Midler hasn’t responded to my tweet about yesterday’s blog. I know, I am disappointed, too.
