I dragged myself to the gym this morning and whilst I was on the cross trainer I counted in my head.....
not calories I was burning or imaginary miles I was running but months.......November to June is only 7 months.
I then ran through a list in my head:
Shul - booked
Hall booked
caterer-booked
decorations-booked
DJ-booked
photographer-booked
It's not looking so disorganised.
So my mind started thinking about others things; how can I make it a meaningful time for my son, the barmitzvah boy and how to engage a practically and financially unsupportive (as far as the barmitzvah is concerned) ex husband who thinks the anything more than a kiddush is extravagant
But then the time on the cross trainer came to an end and I decided to contemplate this another day.
