mybat- what is this job for?Lol Resume is no problem
Shidduchim can be very confusing- to put it mildly.for everybody (%99.9 to be fair). One thing that sO very important is to have someone (not a friend. i mean someone older- a teacher or someone you trust) to talk to about the things that bother you. truthfuly, imo, no one is perfect and since each person grew up in their own home, you will find differences in every body that might be a bit strange to you or odd. one person may be struggling in an area that is a no brainer to you, but that doesn’t make him any less of a ben torah! different families, different ways. even in the same communities. that doesnt mean your settling in any way. of course if something bothers you sooooo muchhhhh he might not be for you… Good luck! And Daven LOTS!!!
anyone know how to get in touch and with who in camp rayim about coming as married staff?
yea, anything lol. but as what? (I prefer to work in a girls-only enviorment)
ny im 20 (how many of you guessed that)?
ny, but i work from home so i guess states don’t matter
chicken with paprika garlic powder salt and olive oil. I usually do that with red potatoes, sweet potatoes and onions, but I hard its yummy with chicken too good luck!
anyone have some job ideas???
I need a job that I can work at home from. I can do lots of stuff (but with women only…) and I’m not lazy about my work!
What ever happened to ywn classifieds? Anyone know of anymore classifieds to look on? If anyone knows of jobs to work at home – I can use that too!!! I can do a lot of stuff from wig washing (and simple blowing) to typing (please don’t start examining my posts now)(don’t worry horrified, no graphics), to writing ….lotsa stuff! (Or a part time job out of the house- but really part time)i’m very hardworking!
b”h he goes to sleep very nicely, now. we figured out why he was being so difficult. i had weaned him off nursing to sleep and rocking before, but it seemed like he suddenly had a big set back. this week (actually before) i realized maybe is he is hungry not tired! I fed him and he was quite happy! When he yawned, i put him right in and he went without a peep.poor little guy… Now it’s time to start my big boy on solids!!! Yay!!!
sheesh talk about the pressure the world puts on the women! Raise the kids, cook for them supper. separate the fights, cushion the blows. clean the laundry and have it all folded. Clean the house- don’t forget to mop those floors! And of course the errands- renew the insurance (i think i can start a thread on how annoying Medicaid is and how many things they messed up)- for some reason i feel like i always have insurance to renew. Shop for food, and toiletries and all that the kids need. run to the bank. pay the bills. juggle WORK into the picture. vacation blessedly comes- for all but the woman. anyone ever notice the women never get a vacation??? Even on a family trip she is packing cooking cleaning and cooking. and cooking. not everyone can afford to eat out for every meal! Oh, and planning for the trip…. and dealing with teh kids fighting in the car…. last vacation i was over stressed – on vacation!!! (i was working while everyone else was dunking in the pool- boys only don’t worry) And we’re supposed to keep up looking slim? If the husband doesn’t appreciate his wife for all that she does as she runs the household (notice how when the husband doesn’t feel well everyone tippy toes around the house. but when the women gets sick she can’t rest for a minute! and i’m not just talking about a mild virus…) at the very least… they’re in trouble. sorry for ranting. it was a rough day…(at least i didnt’ have to worry about gaining weight…i didn’t have time to eat today lol)
just as a PS- I’m not complaining, chas veshalom! Baruch Hashem we have such responsibilities, but my point is WERE NOT SUPERWOMEN!!! and a note to the men out there- recognizing your wife’s efforts and saying thank you will mean a whole load to her! Women have the biggewst job, yet taken for granted . if women were to all go on strik eone day i wonder what would happen….
wandering chana, you said it perfectly
its a mix really… it can get kinda clicky, as anywhere can when people know each other from before, go with friends if you can. but don’t dismiss it if not. i went without friends and I had a fantastic time anyway ( and I’m the quiet type)its a really fun camp and the staff is really nice and warm. hope this helps!

whats klm
i know a lot of people like this. I think its a maturing process kinda thing… Like when they were younger they didn’t chap how important it is and younger girls don’t really have the same feeling as older girls that hashem knows if we davened or not whether or not our parents saw… also younger girls don’t appreciate it as much since they’re still young. maybe i’m wrong, but that’s my guess. I could be totally off though…When i saw this I told myself I would daven with my kids when they are off from school from even the youngest age (even if its just singing little torah and shema or something) so they feel like its important, not just some thing we do in school. Let ya know if it works 😉
just this past shabbos (the one connected to sukkos) we were home for shabbos and 4 am we heard a siren going off. it was our carbon monoxide detector. bh we woke up from the alarm and chapped it was from the stove we left on in our tinsy kitchen. can’t say we will be doing that again…… bh were all ok
drink only water, don’t eat after 8, stay away from nosh and fried stuff. oh, and if you can go walking (not even jogging) half an hour a day that’s great too. that’s how i lost weight.
it actually wasn’t a typo. maybe I’ll be looking around for different prices…. maybe i read wrong???? gotta go check that out
defintely better off without. Nowadays, people are son engrossed in their cellphones all daylong. talking in the street… also, things that peopl ecan have accces to on the cellphone aren’t having such a great effect on us either. And texting… don’t get me started. tue it has its benefeits, but imho, the bad out ways the good.
hey paschabchochma don’t us sefardim get to be in your post too???
tough call. people get very set in their ways… maybe if people would know more about it, like how it can help anybody. not sure really
i agree with you %100. i think people get so nervous from it because they automatically think therapy means something is majorly wrong with person. but nowadays therapy has become a more wide spread treatment for smaller issues too (which is good!), but the stereotype remains the same. btw good luck pursuing the field!
oo- wedding album pictures definitely a good idea- still gotta do mine………..
lol dr. pepper! my little one is 3 months but he does a great job at helping out by being a good little baby!
another idea is to give the kids small jobs to help out (possibly in a different room that you are in ;)). little ones love being able to be mommy’s little helper. it’s more of keeping them busy then the extra help- you just might have to go over what they did. what’s better is after you can tell everyone what a help they were and they will feel so good about themselves!
A responsible adult (or husband if he is around and not needed inside the house) can take the kids out to the park to play, or out for pizza… or mayeb for the younger ones buy them new coloring books and have them kept busy with that or some other sort of activity
sjs, chicken isn’t all that expensive. about $11 for a pound of chicken cutlets, which is all you need for a new couple. you can eat normally! maybe meat should be saved for shabbos, but then again I’m not are who eats meat during the week regularly anyway. pasta is a great supper and so is chicken cutlets with a rice etc. etc. etc. cut off on the things you don’t need (like a $400 suit when there is a good quality suit for $200, or skip the candy aisle at the supermarket. or, like in my house i buy the cheaper brand tissues, but if someone has a cold I will buy the softer brands so there nose won’t fall off!)- shop wisely! also, luach.com, torah times and probably other classifieds have stuff for free (used, but comes in handy for the stuff you don’t want to spend on)
also, i always search online for whatever i’m buying to get a deal. search it in google, then click shopping on top of the screen and sort from low to high. ebay has good deals too!
verizon has a lifeline phone plan- 7 dollars a month for the unlimited local calling. no caller id, long distance or call waiting. you will have to send in a copy of your benefit card. Of course there is foodstamps (giant help, you’d be surprised) and medicaid. retailmenot.com has coupons for websites. also, a lot of websites have rewards programs, or sign up for savings….. also, you’ll learn how to shop on sale racks ((buy off season for next season…clearance can have great stuff too…), or find stores that are cheaper than others. also, maybe consider side jobs- shabbos groups or something… Just remember Hashem sends! Some months we have no idea how we paid our bills, but it happens! Bitachon Bitachon Bitachon!
but i do nurse exculsively 🙂
oo I’m not crunchy lol. I’m very pro-epidoral (and not cause I have a low pain tolerance!) lol. to each his own! In labor, i was given a diluted solution of epidoral and when it wasn’t enough, i asked for more (as the anesthesiologist or however you spell it, said I should)and the nurse looked at me and said well you cant’ expect to go through labor and not feel anything! b”h shifts switched right then….. Just a note to all the natural births out there: I’ve received some really nasty and hurtful comments from natural birth moms (not saying that you guys would do this) how they think they’re better than me cuz they go for natural births, and how labor must be a sinch for you, so why should you be scared about it? (which isn’t true! may be easier of course, but believe me i felt a whole lot before and after)…….My point- please be careful when talking about this with epidoral moms!
cuz some nights go like this: nurse, falls asleep. put him down to in his crib and he wakes up. won’t go to sleep unless he nurses again. and repeats. and repeats. He could have eaten an hour ago, so he isn’t hungry. maybe after half an hour when he is really still full………..
sr psych, thanks! I actually just realized an even worse problem- at nights he is used to being nursed to sleep!!! (- happened kinda without me realizing that was happening…)Any ideas how to break that habit?
any tips for newborns? My son (3 months) is used to being rocked asleep, but soon enough, that habit is going to have to go
luach.com has items for free under sell my stuff category good luck 🙂
one thing is for sure, if you do decide to bring your children with you to shul, they should be next to you always. just this past rosh hashanah I saw little kids (not older than 5) running into the street (not the curb- like smack in the middle of the street) with other children encouraging them on (I dare you…..)
mazel tov to me i had a baby boy 🙂 🙂 🙂
basic colors i’ve been to (bought grear pretied bandanas there for three dollars each!!!), but keep me posted on the man with the truck! thanks 🙂
helpful, what do you mean by talking to your wife too much?????
Al tarbe sicha im haisha, perhaps?
you can buy the x code for 4.25 on ebay (buy it now option)
i bought one for 3.26 and one for 4.00. didn’t place the order yet, im hoping to buy the other 2 codes too
yay I won 2 codes! Now gotta get the other two….
think i’ll stick with ebay
hmm… i just threw out the magazine (somehow i got a free`subscripition, not sure how)cuz I said i didn’t want it in my house. would it be hypocrtical to go buy it now for the codes?
this isn’t a health tip, but it’s a tip to help you wake up. I know someone who drinks a cup of coffee before going to sleep and it helps them wake up. hard to imagine but if they said it works…….
