it is o.k. but someone told me that she can’t wait till our jewish holiday season is over and oh i understood it so well.
it is a whole lot of preparation work and then we just sit there for hours doing pretty much nothing. that part bothers me and wrecks the holiday.

Happy holiday, Judy!
Christian holidays are festive. Family time is fun. I’d think that Jewish holidays are the same
loke. it depends on who what when etc.
my mom and i eat alone together and it is lonely. and then we sit on the couch and talk and then there’s not much more to say. so we just sit there.
its not the way the holiday should be. we’re not the lucky ones.

Happy Holidays Judy!

I’m so sorry 15151
Will you take a moment to educate me. What holiday is it?
chordy it is the jewish high holiday season. soon is yom kippur and sukkot.
they are beautiful if you are lucky. i am not right now. judy
Holidays can be difficult. I hope you feel better soon.
I feel better educated, now. I Googled both yom kippur and sukkot. Can you celebrate with other Jews so you won’t feel so bad? What a bad time to feel isolated and lonely.
it’s good to see you, Judy.
Are you having trouble with your family?
hi. just finished the yom kippur yesterday. i have a good and supportive family. my mom isn’t well though.
yom kippur is a fast day and cannot socialize much then but sukkot is not. maybe i’ll go to services but i hate to go when i need to wear a headscarf because i am nearly bald after chemo now.
thanks for all your support and ideas. it is very helpful for me.
