Blog is not forgotten

 It has been a bit busy this fall in the Weitzman house. I am incoming president of Hadassah Boston. I just returned home from my three day training in NYC. I received a lot of information, but I met 11 other women who are also becoming regional presidents on January 1, 2024! We are a diverse group of women, and live across the country. It was nice to meet our trainers, and each other.

And now I am home, am preparing Thanksgiving. I will post my menu later.

Work is busy, as it is at the end of every year. I like to be busy. Everything will get done by December 31, 2023.

Youngest child is applying to colleges, which is stressful and exciting.

More to come, but I didn’t want you to think I forgot about you.
