Packing anyone

Anyone want to pack for me????


I realized tonight that I have spent more time packing, unpacking, and repacking a suitcase in the last month then I have done anything else...I have not slept more then 2 nights in my own bed in my apartment since...July 4th...how crazy is that??? and it does not look like it is going to be changing anytime soon...
I was away at a conference until last night...tonight I unpacked my bag and then packed a bag for shabbos...Sunday I will unpack that bag and pack a bag for Monday night when I go to NY for Shev and Yaakov's wedding and then stay in CT for the night at Rena's...I come back then go to Newton for Shabbos...then maybe I get a few days to myself...then Meir's wedding...then Fran's wedding...then Rosh Hashana and all of the Chagim...and then...Shabbaton 1, 2, 3, and 4...
basically...SEE YOU IN DECEMBER!

Where have I been...where am I going...

So you might be wondering where I have been for the last few days well...I have been at a National NCSY staff conference...yes I actually went to a conference...It wasnt as bad as I thought it would be but it wasnt as good as I thought it would be at the same time. at least i had company for part of it but then everyone left me...

Hopefully I am going home tonight with Rabbi Miller, but then I get to work on Thursday and Friday...then I am in Newton for Shabbos and then I am back to New York on Monday afternoon for Yaakov and Shev's wedding...dont worry I will be back in Brookline by early Tuesday morning (I might have to drive through the night)


OK I am off to bed...it only took me 2 hours to write this entry because I was sitting in the lobby of the hotel...

such a great weekend...

I have had such a great weekend already and it is only early Sunday morning...
It started off Friday when I went up to New Hampshire with my mom to take my brother back to camp (he had been home for almost 2 weeks with mono, again). After we dropped him off my mom wanted to go to Portsmouth to go to a shoe store...the store did not have the shoes she wanted so we went into a clothing shop and I found a great outfit for the 3 weddings I have over the next few weeks...Friday night was the usual...but I finished an awesome book!!!!! (Thanks Hinda for recommending it) Shabbos afternoon I walked to Hinda's (she was surprised to see me...that was worth it) and then after shabbos I went and hung out with Amy we watched "Raising Helen"

In the morning I am going to Newport with my mom...


I think this weekend might be up there on the list of great weekends this summer, with the weekend I spent at Hinda's and then went into NY...What do you think????

Happy Ending?

My week started a bit rocky but it looks like it is going to end on a good note...

I finally finished Huge Mailing #1 today with a lot of help from Shifra, Hinda, Dana, Zahava, and Dani...I hope Staples can help me with the next one because I can't handle this again...

Hinda and I went shopping a lot this week...but don't worry we also returned stuff.

It is only 11 and I am exhausted...what is wrong with me????

I will have to finish later

quick update

I am really tired but I thought I would just give you all a quick update...

yesterday I got to see and catch up with a bunch of old friends at Aviva and Adam's wedding and after.

Today I got to see Hinda! We had a lot of fun...I would have to say we definately had a great HinDAC adventure...and Hinda got green sneakers...What could be better????

Ok I think when I cant actually type straight it is a sign that I should go to sleep...

Pressure????

Ok....so I am alive and I guess I am not so good at posting...it is not because I dont care I just have not had a chance...

I have been doing a lot of thinking lately (I know that might be trouble...) I have been thinking about where I am in life (even more trouble) have I made the right choices? Lately I feel like maybe not...I do like my work, but did I make the right choice by staying in Boston? Should I have gone to NY?

I spent shabbos at my mom's in Newton where I was, I guess, in a way, "set up" with my neighbor's nephew from London...He is really nice and sweet...and we talked for hours about a lot of different things. He asked me a few times through out shabbos if I felt pressure to get married and each time I answered no...but now that I think about it, I am feeling pressure...I feel pressure from my mom because everytime she hears I have met someone she pressures me about the possibility, I feel pressure from my community now that everytime I talk to a guy people start assuming (oh wait that has been happening for a few years), I feel pressure from people who have told me that I should be moving to NY, and I feel pressure everytime I see my brother who is 3 years younger then me with his girlfriend who he has been dating for 3 years...
So I guess I do feel pressure.

I have to give a big shout out to Hinda...the other half of HinDAC for the amazing shabbaton she put together last week. It was awesome! You should be very proud...and a big thank you...for always being there for me! I owe you big time...
