A gem about being “tarud” ( overbusy) on erev pesach:
The halacha in YD tes zayin:vav, when buying an animal to shecht, on four days one must inquire if the progeny or parent was sold at the same time ( oso v’es bno) because the norm is that on these days the animal will be shechted the very same day. These are erev pesah, erev shvuos, erev rosh hashana, and erev the second YT of succos. The tosafot on this sugya asks why the first yom tov of succos is left out, answering that on erev succot, you are too busy with succah, and arba minim and such to be involved with the processing of an animal. IOW, on erev pesach, you really should not have that much to do…
