My friend Heloise always thinks I need a crown. I woke up this morning and strangely felt "crowned." Fully awake, I realized that New Jerusalem, the pooch, had nestled on top of my head. She had never done that before. Did she know it was Mother's Day? Was she spooked by something? Did she dream of the big, bad wolf? Who knows.
Rabbi Seligman also blessed me in the temple today. As mother of three dogs I qualified for the blessing. AND - if you were to put one on top of the other they would be really four feet high. So I figured three small dogs equal a human and I qualified by that measure as well. I went to Canada this morning because I had so much clothing collected for the homeless. The line was considerable shorter today than it was during the winter which was a relief. I had gotten doughnuts and had a shopping bag full of brand new socks. The rest of the clothing I just laid out and let them go through it. On the way to the temple, I passed the women's shelter and I left them a bouquet of roses at the door. Nobody answered the door. I hope they split it up and give every one a rose. Anyway, Rabbi Seligman started off with my favorite hymn and I was in heaven. Lit a candle at the feet of the Jewish mother for 7 people after the service. Came back and ate my solo Mother's Day meal at the Diner. Time for a Sunday nap.
