2020 has been a challenging year. But time marches on, and Rosh Hashana is just a little more than two weeks away – already!
Here is my prep list:
- order seats for shul???
- pay shul dues (ours have always been due about now for the different shuls)
- order lulav and etrog sets (including any “learning” sets)
- new tzitzit for boys
- order pjs for all kids (our tradition–they are always needed around this turn of the seasons!)
- order/find needed clothing for kids
- purchase new special something for kids–legos? clics? Something to add to their simcha (joy).
- order/find new something for me (outfit? tichel?)
- check with dh about his clothing needs
- take care of kittel, if your dh wears one for Yom Kippur
- plan our Rosh Hashanah homeschooling lessons and projects (like this kids’ mitzva checklist!)
- plan menu (but with all the simanim (special, ritual foods) we use, that’s a whole post by itself!)
I’m still getting things together here. How is it going for you?
