I'm A New Member

So many nice responses. Thanks to all of you for your patience and kind remarks. I am so raw at this, please bear with me.
 

Tonight is get-together number three for my assigned group of new members at the Shul, (VBS) Valley Beth Sholom. VBS is running a program for new members called, "Our Jewish Home" which has won awards. The first invitation I received invited "couples like you" to attend the first meeting. I sent an email to the two top rabbis who signed the invitation (they know me) asking where I could buy a blow-up doll like Larry David had in a "Curb Your Enthusiasm" episode. This is an industry town. They would be familiar with my (attempted) humorous reference. Needless to say, I was sent the wrong letter. I received the proper invitation and the rest of the story is all pleasant. Nice people, nice fit, good dynamics. Very intelligent conversation all evening.

Thanks dept ... to my blog mentor, "One Heck of a Guy" http://1heckofaguy.com/ for teaching me how to retrieve pictures for uploading. Now I have to figure out how to place them in the right spot.
