    I want to hear, probablly so I can just be happy for you.

    We do nothing. Actually the funnest thing I will do this summer will be to bring a baby into the world. but besides for that…we’re just stay in the city and its life as usual..

    Hopefully, iyH, seeing a new day, every day, out of my own familiar windows, as opposed to seeing it through the windows of the many uptown hospitals.

    #794984

    Oh its just a baby. Nothing more boring than bringing a new life into this world.

    My wife always says she wants to go somewhere. But I’m a homebody.

    No vacation for me. I’m staying home to keep an eye on multiple Josephs here. Quite a handful, eh?

    Old joke:

    My wife told me to take her someplace new. I took her to the kitchen. ?

    One thing that is a lot of fun is to learn English. If you do that, you’ll know there is no such word as “funnest.”

    #794988

    Ha ha ha – a girl from haifa has to correct my english!. Since becoming Chassidishe my English is as good – its true or maybe its mommy brain?.

    Derech Ha Melech, it’s not that having a baby is boring, it’s just that I ACTUALLY WANT TO GO SOMEWHERE.

    besides for the nice view from the surgical table in the 4 star O.R where i recieved 1st class treatment and later recuperated , and that DEFINATELY was refreshing as i had many quiet hours to reflect and have hakirus hatoiv for all the brachas in my life, and feeling thankful that i am still amongst the living- being that i just went through GIVING BIRTH …. which is a life & DEATH situation.

    that would all make for an interesting title to write an essay entitled “what I did on my summer vacation” for a class.

    @haifagirl, I actually am pretty sure that “funnest” was recently added to the dictionary but I could be mixing it up with another word.

    Since giving birth is not an option, I’ll settle for plan B (which is tubing down the Esopus)

    It is “funny” how “funnest” has somehow reared its head and snuck in.

    Scissors, B’sha’ah tova. I wish you a speedy “delivery” and speedy recovery>

    The “funnest” thing I do in the summer is teach my grandchildren how to swim. Nachas, nachas, nachas.

    My “funnest” thing is still going to shul for the morning minyan. Have to try not to sleep in (never happens) as the numbers are down with so many people at the lake. Actually, it is a wonderful way to begin the day and the coffee klatch (aka kiddush) afterward keeps everyone up to date on all sorts of news. However, I think that early fall will be a great time as I think I will go to my kids for the Yomtovim. THAT is always wonderful, plus I don’t have to cook (at least not as much as if I am having a dozen people for the holidays).

    #795005

    Have fun all you working people!!

    Of course I have to. Nobody else seems to want to. And by the way, I’m a girl from Haifa (with a capital H) and I teach English (with a capital E).

    Your English is as good as what?

    “It’s” should have an apostrophe (in both places), and you don’t need a period after an exclamation point or a question mark.

    besides for the nice view from the surgical table in the 4 star O.R where i recieved 1st class treatment and later recuperated , and that DEFINATELY was refreshing as i had many quiet hours to reflect and have hakirus hatoiv for all the brachas in my life, and feeling thankful that i am still amongst the living- being that i just went through GIVING BIRTH …. which is a life & DEATH situation.

    You really should start your sentences with a capital letter. Also, “I” is always capitalized. “‘I’ before ‘e,’ except after ‘c’ . . .” Take a look at “received.”

    Then again, “definitely” could definitely use some help, too.

    that would all make for an interesting title to write an essay entitled “what I did on my summer vacation” for a class.

    I’m not even going to try to tackle that sentence.

    Have a great summer.

    #795008

    Seriously???

    #795009

    Haifa, you saw that I CAN write the world English with a Capitol “E” because in one instance I did so! So my point is that it is not that I am incapable, but rather didn’t know that grammer, punctuation and spelling really counted in the CR!

    WHoa,, I will have to watch myself around. But why am I the only poster you are picking on ?

    And whats wrong with he sentence:

    that would all make for an interesting title to write an essay entitled “what I did on my summer vacation” for a class.

    Tell me. It makes sense as far as cognition is concerned. I mean I expect you can figure out what I am saying no?

    Haifagirl doesn’t discriminate against posters, only grammatically incorrect posts.

    Apparently the most funnest thing I’ll be doing this summer is attempting to solve some riddles on that thread…(sigh)

    #795016

    Actually I always wanted to go to the Living Torah museum, but in the past, he was always upstate when I would be in America.

    Turns out the Rockstar Energy Mayhem Festival is during the 9 days, and I therefore won’t be going. Oh well. It’s probably for the best. I’ll find something else later in the summer.

    #795021

    Plan on attending Glenn Becks Restoring Courage rally in Jerusalem on Aug 24.

    Tubing down the Jordan.

    Klezmer music festival in Tzfat.

    Wine factory.

    Chocolate factory.

    Blind museum.

    Deaf museum.

    Atving.

    Horseback riding.

    Relaxing and doing nothing the rest of the time…

    #795022

    To enter a few posts late, since when did “besides for” become standard usage? It’s all over the Jewish papers. What was wrong with “aside from” or “except for” or just plain “besides”?

    As you can see, the most fun thing for me this summer is being crotchety. Perhaps I will start crocheting instead. Better than knitting my brow with worry.

    #795023

    what does ursula mean?

    #795024

    In the context of this thread, it means “cranky old lady who needs to work on her middos and not get annoyed by little things such as children and misused phrases.” In general usage, it’s a name. It’s the feminine Latin word for bear. It’s not my actual first name, though.

    Wasn’t Ursula the evil octopus from the little mermaid?

    #795029

    Fortunately I have only the usual two arms, so obviously we are not related. Anyway, I prefer to be inspired by and referenced to Ursula Lehmann, who used to write for Olomeinu.

    Grammar, punctuation and spelling always count! Being able to write well is about the most important skill you can have.

    As for the most fun thing I’m doing this summer… We made a wedding last month but for the rest of the summer, it will be job hunting. Before someone asks for me Job hunting has been a lot of fun!
