I forgot to mention, dont ignore your single friend.

Call her when ur husband goes out to daven to learn or to work.

I should hope it’s understood that your marriage takes priority.

Dont know where you get your facts from.

My family gets together, e/o babysits their own children.

We all come to my mothers kitchen before pesach to help cook and bake while the children are in school.

We are not an exception as I know other families that do the same.

Since we all have KH large families, Pesach is the one time of year where we get togther and the cousins get to know eachother.

I am looking forward to being a part of the noise, the mess, and the cleanup.

barf? why.

Who cares if they make a small bottle.

Who says wine cant be cute? anyways, Who exactly cares how they market it?

If you like the size buy it, if you dont leave it for someone else.

I dont get ur reaction.

I heard the blue Bartenura’le goes over very well with non jews as well.

SOmetimes itss more tacky to give that than to give a big bottle of wine.

I think the Bartenura’le is very cute, inexpensive and great idea.

Joseph, you suggest “not-rich oilem can expand into a non-Jewish Brooklyn neighborhood until there’s a critical mass of frumkeit.”

The problem is Brooklyn is an expensive place to live in jewish or not.

Also, there isnt much availablity at all, even outside of the shmaltz neighborhoods.

Midwood Yid, you are allowed one personal item such as a rolling suitcase, purse or laptop bag. Depends on who checks you in determines if they weigh it or not.

RebYidd23, a carry on can be upto 10 or 12 pounds. If its more they will make you check it in. If u already have a checked in bag you will have t pay. Sometimes these rolling carry ons are so heavy that they take up most of the allowed weight.

The OP never mentioned the word abusive.

I didnt get the impression that we are talking about an extreme situation.

If this is an extreme abusive situation then I would suggest a qualified professional.

For my childrens teachers, whom I also really appreciate, I am planning to give a gift certificate.

I want them to be able to buy something they want.

I feel like money is not personal enough, but a gift is too personal.

I think more important than the Mishloach Manos is a nice card.

HAHA What a funny thought.

I agree with balancehumanbalance.

zahavasdad, maybe bec Brooklyns close proximity to Manhattan.

I would say telegram was more kosher, you dont have these sick video clips made by bored pple being passed around.

RebYidd23, if time is the issue, you don’t have to go to the gym every day.

My husband goes twice a week. One of those days is sunday which is a day off for him. Yes, tthe second day, he comes home from work, his gym bag is ready, he goes to the gym for an hour, hour and a half, comes home eats supper. He’s home for about half hour before he goes out to learn.

So that is bit more rushed. But it’s preserving ones health.

My husband admits that since he started gym he’s more agile.

I’d rather eat cake then do the gym but you gotta do what u gotta do.

vaseline has a special lip balm. Works like a charm for me.

I was in Amazing SAvings in Boro Park yesterday, they have all their purim boxes out already

There’s an all mens frum gym called Better Health Studios in boro park.

They have trainers and machines.

Thats the one my husband goes to.

Not familiar with Yeled V’yaldas gym though I know they have a great pool.

Lakewood has a great gym in Shoprite plaza with mens hours. I have relative who goes there every week without fail.

Theres no lack for Kosher Vyosher gyms, maybe some have a lack of interest 😉

My husband goes to the gym twice a week. A frum only male gym that he says is full.

So maybe some people take their health for granted, but not all.
