Reminder: This week is the last week before Rosh Hashana. The last week can count for all weeks in the year.
Kesiva V’chasima Tova
I dont know where I heard this. but it is said that on Monday you can be Mitaken everything you did wrong on all the Mondays of the year and the same for every other day of this week. I think that is what kapusta is referring to. Next week, btwn Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur is Aseres Yemei Teshuvah, the 1st week of the new year.
FB, I remember learning that you can be mesaken for all the wrong done specifically the week of Aseres Yimei Tshuva. Truth is, kapusta is closer to her schooling years than I am so I guess that must be it. Or maybe we’re both somewhat right!
kapusta- my pleasure
mepal- I’m sure you’re right as well and that there is “something” next week as well, but what I’m saying is that being that this is the LAST week of the year we are being Misaken everything from the past year. Next week is already the new year.
kapusta?!?!?!? Whatever for? So he slipped and he’s really Ashkenazic, thats all! lol.
I’m not sure why I wrote Mitaken because mepal’s right- I am Ashkenaz. Only problem is, mepal is also wrong because I am not a “HE”!!! mepal, why’d you assume that I’m male?
she/he whatever.
Tomorrow is Erev Rosh Hashana. On this day, many men observe the custom to fast (at least) half a day (i.e. until Chatzos). In my own unfortunate experience, there have been many times that I forgot about this hanhaggah until after breakfast (by which point there was no “trick” to making it to Chatzos, lol). Therefore, I felt that a reminder might be helpful to myself and to anyone else who tries to follow this minhag.
Here where I live everyone goes to pray selichos tomorrow morning even the women.
yes i better get to bed early,,,, tomorrow selichot even for women…..but we get a delicious kalzon for breakfast, that is worthy
when to shul early got my cheese kalzon it was delicious and made hatarah nedarim,,, all ready for a wonderful yom tov, i wish everybody a shana tova umetuka
CHEESE KALZON definatly a sign of a good year
how about calzone? anyway i hope we get better signs which tell us of a good year.
REMINDER- it’s almost Yom Kippur. Are we prepared? The following link is an incredible speech given by Rabbi Zecharia Wallerstein (orignally intended for Rosh Hashanah)- listen or watch it, it’s worth it!
