Missing the Boys For Practical Reasons
Having waxed nostalgic about missing my boys sitting next to me during the Yomim Noraim, today I missed them for more practical reasons...I had to shlep the succah from the garage to the backyard by myself.
Normally, I wouldn't have minded so much but I had put in a pretty hard 53 mile bike ride in the morning (and, BH, did not even get a flat) in unusually hot weather and it was still hot when I started working on the succah.
Thankfully, OYD did a great job helping me assemble the succah and I was done from start to finish in about an hour and a half.
The boys themselves put up a funky succah at OOS's apartment in J'lem so it's not as if they were slumming it. Just to be clear, I am moichel on the boys as long as the reason they aren't helping me is cause they're where they are!

The first chagim alone can be very difficult.
I certainly would've helped you with the sukkah if I was around.

i meant to post this last week on the post about nobody liking your post about stupidity so you are going to write about...the toddler? for you information, i come to this blog to hear the stupidity, your crazy -yet admirable- obsession with bike riding, the crazy stories in your shul... that is what mochassid is to me. all that stuff about the toddler and the foster child is just filler!
