Chodesh tov, in more ways than one

To the best of my recollection, this is the first time we've had a minyan on a weekday Torah-reading day since A. died. What a delight, to be able to have a Torah reading from a scroll, rather than just reading it out of a book, on Rosh Chodesh! It was, indeed, a Chodesh tov, a good (way to begin a) new month.
