There are so many things I could and should be doing now

Instead of any of them, having just got the baby (he is 2 1/2) to sleep, I sat down to start my blog! I don't really know what I'm doing but having found other frum women's blogs looking for information about the whole sheitel thing (I don't even own a sheitel!) I just decided to start a blog. Hah! So here I am.

There are so many things I still could be doing. Baking challah is unfortunately not one of them as once again I forgot to buy yeast. And it is after 12:00 am. Guess we are buying this week, again.

So the sheitel thing is facinating. As someone who doesn't wear a sheitel, my husband and some of my sheitel wearing friends might have viewed my interest at the breaking story as gloating- but I don't think so. It's puzzling though (and puzzles are so interesting) that I saw the issue first mentioned on the net on an email list from 1997 and this psak was issued now, so many years later.... One sheitel wearing friend told me how all these women who view walking outside in snoods and tichels like walking out in their pajamas and how much mesiras nefesh to go out in snoods when the psak came out. Yeah, I hear that. May it be a zchus for klal yisrael in these troubled times.
I am glad though that I never spent a few thousand dollars on someone else's hair only to have to get rid of it now. Instead every so often I spend 15- 75 shekel on a new tichel. And no I am not gloating.

There is alot to do for shabbos and we are having a fair amount of guests and all the usual craziness. So off I go now.
A gut shabbos to who ever reads this.
