Saturdays

I can't post anything on Friday evenings or Saturdays, because we'll be cleaning up for Shabbos. It's a Jewish "holiday", more like a day of rest, every week. We can't use electricity, can't write, can't walk a certain distance (something like three miles), can't even braid hair! Yet it's the most relaxing time of the week. You can just sit around with a book all day. Or climb in a tree. Or play a game with your little sister who's been bugging you to play a game for weeks.
Shabbos ends Saturday night, when the first three stars come out. Nowadays that means around 9.
