Thanks, Rutabaga, for your diligence in posting reminders every night.

Baruch HaShem!!! completed!
Here's a thought - whenever I want to make a change in my life, I either don't do it because I don't have time, or I don't do it because I forget to implement it regularly. So forget about the ones where I don't have time, and just focus on having a hard time integrating it into my routine (say, working on a midda, or exercising, or daily learning, so many things).
So I keep wondering why was sefira so easy to implement and integrate into my nightly routine, (B"H) but everything else is hard to??
Any ideas?

I forgot the first night! 
But I'm getting cheesecake anyway! (I was just reading through last years posts here....)

I found an interesting responsa saying kabbalistically women shouldn't count as they are already counting anyway (their cycles) and also they could mix up. I had never heard of it.
(in any case I don't count)

I don't know if that's the source (I never heard anything about mixing up with TH), but I do know that in my husband's family the women don't count, even without a bracha, due to a kabbalistic reason.

Interesting! I've never heard of a minhag not to count.
For those who don't have that minhag, don't forget to count tonight!

I would like a reference to the source for this.

never started, just forgot. my husband remembers every night and so I listen to him saying the bracha.
did it every year growing up. my father would print out calendar charts at work and we would cross each day off as we went.

As usual I forgot the first night. I always get confused because I remember from chutz laaretz that you start counting on seder night, but it isn't seder night in Israel... because we only do one seder... so I start off all confused and usually then completely forget by the next night...

For me it's the second night that determines the whole sefira. If I remember to count the second night, then I usually can make it the whole way through.
Don't forget to count tonight!

Still counting (and with a bracha, admittedly not too common in my community).

Also still counting, with a bracha! Thanks to my husband, who has a big piece of paper that he puts on our pillows every night saying 'remember sefiras ha'omer!'
