By now your disposition should be shining
And you’re probably back to boozing and “wining”…

“It came up in learning, that’s why I put it in the Beis Medrash, lol.”
very curious where in learning this came up…
I needed to post on an online questionnaire and kept getting an error message when I entered 11/11/11.
The error message: please put in MM/DD/YY form.
I’d like a word with those programmers…
poor GumBall didn’t have her favorite teacher today
Wow, MP, what a nice thing to say. And a great time for me to hear it, too. You are amazing. Thank you.
bpt, BH 🙂
Hey, squeak, no bunker for you! You gotta give the rest of us folk a chance to get on here and figure it out!
Now please do another one.
And tell Icot that he’s run out of vacation days.
Good Shabbos everyone
“Please stay. I’ve learned so much from you.”
Whoa, I’m honored that you think so, but I’ve no clue what I had to offer you as you have incredible midos and integrity yourself.
???? ???? (especially with what’s been going on lately…)
haha
Aw, I thought zk did it purposely, spoofing Goldilocks and the Three Bears…had a laugh as well, it was funny 🙂
funny, Shticky!
The cr is also a great place for purls of wisdom, contrasting opinions, and, you should know, leaving us in stitches…
Hey, s2021, great to see you again!
Yup, we caught your drift, even before you drifted…

“Am Yisroel Chai posted a Vort about them picking on “Joseph”. Very clever! Loved it!”
Thanks, Jothar, glad you liked it…was wondering if anyone had gotten it 🙂
“You can email me if you want to discuss privately.”
No can do, I lent my crystal ball out…
So Goq and company, how’d it go today??
There you go, making me LOL again!
To quote onegoal, “I can’t take this anymore! OH!”
What a wonderful post, Sister Bear! Your hakaras hatov while going through your challenges is a testament to your strength of character.
Remember that hrough your challenge, you’ll be developing more coping muscles and skills.
Btw, probably no one is thinking that you have no right to “complain”.
Thank you so much for your brachos, and back to you as well!
didn’t know that learning Kol Hatorah Kula on the internet is considered internet addiction.
Live and learn.
I’m randomly posting (maybe not), but you people make me laugh!
Rabbi Yosef Gavriel Bechhofer is a Rebbe and Maggid Shiur at Yeshivas Ohr Somayach in Monsey, NY; at the Mesivta of Yeshivas Rabbeinu Yitzchok Elchonon (commonly known as MTA) in New York; at Yeshivas Ohr Reuven in Monsey; and at Bat Torah Academy in Paramus, NJ. He is also an editor at Artscroll/Mesorah Publications, at work on the new Midrash Rabbah project. Rabbi Bechhofer has served as a Rav, Rebbe and Rosh Kollel in the Chicago and New York areas.
Rabbi Bechhofer is one of the few individuals to have served as Maggid Shiur for both Daf Yomi Bavli and Daf Yomi Yerushalmi, completing both.

“Yosef is the tzaddik, not “Joseph”, unless you’re Christian.”
Our lost brothers and sisters are definitely not Chr, and many of us who dabble in kiruv use these names.
similarities:
They both have plans, have charge, are plugged in, and enjoy the spoken word.
And have accrued bills…
So sorry for your loss. May you find comfort soon.
You are describing several things:
-grief and trauma from the sudden ptira
-insecurity about when the next “hit” will take place and to whom
-a desire for self-improvement while you still have the chance
This sounds normal to me.
==========================================================
You can probably do several things:
*read books on the normal stages of grief
*read the Garden of Emuna. Increasing emuna helps with worrying about things that are not in your control
*write a detailed list now of the things you’d like to improve and how you are going to go about doing that. Keep track of your progress. You may find it easier with a support system.
Hatzlacha! It’s a great zchus to the niftar that you are using this as a springboard to personal growth, which is really what Hashem wants. Kol hakavod.
kapusta
You’re quite welcome.
Some people just don’t get it, that’s a given. At least you tried.
I’d love to give you the number of the chesed coordinator (it’s her cell number) but obviously I prefer not posting it here.
You really have such special qualities about you. No matter what you are going through, you have high standards. Just remember to focus on all the GREAT stuff going on in your life right now as well…
Hummingbird
You’re quite welcome.
One thing I’ve learned in life is that you can’t live your life worrying about how others will react when you are doing nothing wrong. That would make it THEIR problem, not yours.
However, when you say “I’d feel so uneasy doing something like that”, that’s totally different.
Would you feel better with the following card:
The favor of an early response is greatly appreciated.

You can add a smiley face on it.
How does this feel to you?
You know you spend too much time in the CR when…
…you think being called Joseph is not a good thing
(the outside world actually calls Yoseph a tzaddik, d’ya remember?!)
uh, 42, sounds like phishing for information to me…could YOU be Joseph by any chance???
You people are funny!
Because they didn’t have similac or enfamil in those days 🙂
“Please stay. I’ve learned so much from you.”
Whoa, kapusta, what a nice thing for you to say. But I can’t think of a thing I can offer, since you have incredible midos and insight yourself.
There are posters here dealing with anorexia and bulimia, so this topic isn’t a light one (pun intended)
Diet coke is very unhealthy. Some healthier sugar substitutes are stevia and xylitol.
42, there’s some unfinished business and I prefer to do it privately, if that works for you.
Hmmm. And what was it exactly that you put INTO your coffee???
I’m going to try to address each of you posters separately be”H.

“Welcome back AYC! Your return really meant a lot to me.”
Thank you very much for your encouraging words. I must admit that I’m rather surprised, seeing that we were not in full agreement on the subject that sent me into an unplanned vacation.
So your words are especially meaningful.
Thanks so much for the chizuk, gilgul! What’s the deal with all these false accusations??? May I ask who you were in a previous life? I’m not so comfy here yet, so I’m taking it day by day and see if I will remain. But thanks for making me feel like it makes a difference.

Thanks, bpt, but I earned even better than an Edited; I got a Deleted! And it was a vort on the parsha thread! Go figure!
Gumball, so in your example, if you split half the Mint Chocolate chip ice cream with person A and half of it with person B….
In 1/2 A + 1/2 B = 1/2(A+B), you are not distributing anything. You are factoring out the 1/2.
In the reverse 1/2(A+B)=1/2 A + 1/2 B, you are distributing out the 1/2 and removing parentheses.
“AYC is correct, the rest of us who wrote distributive are wrong.”
Thank you, charlie brown. It was quite uncomfortable being the sole unpopular opinion here. (At least I wasn’t berated for it…guess I’m not over that other experience yet, sigh)

Your kids are healthy and aren’t whining
