how can i contact the mods directly?
my husband lol
I went there a few times. They are so special. Although I ate on the porch it was still fun! j
F they are kids who are always in school and rarely take mental health days, then yeah why not?! But if they miss school often then I’d say no. Let them go and enjoy themselves for a day. They can make up the work I’m sure but go on, let them enjoy. Its not like they are missing school to go to a sporting event, its to go to a lag baomer parade! Have fun and enjoy the day!
Im glad this is being brought up again. My neighbor just texted my last night that kids we know who are 9 going on 10 were biking around our area without helmets! What the heck? Why cant parents put their foot down and say “no helmet no riding!”??? Please everyone wear a helmet!!! Would you get in a car and not put on a seatbelt? Didnt think so…(eventhough sadly I see it all the time where parents drive off before kids are even sitting down!)
people who are never there for their children!
how are his middos? How was he as a roommate in Yeshiva? Is he a considerate bachur? Does he help out at shabbos meals? How is he with kids? for a girl the exact same thing. except if she didnt go to seminary, then you dont ask that question but you can ask, if she is involved in any sort of chessed projects. does/did she help take care of little sibling if applicable.
Please do NOT ask what size clothing her mother wears or if they use plastic table clothes on shabbos! or if they are stackers and if they use real dishes etc etc.
i will iy”H be wearing blue and white, saying hallel(without a bracha though bec thats how i grew up) and maybe ill have a bbq!
Yes I do. I need to be able to listen to some sort of music when driving. I listen to anything acapella thats out there
thanks DY
heres a question…i never posed it to a Rav because I didnt think to. But, when I was single I always lit two candles. I still continue with two. Should I have added one for my husband and light 3 instead of two?
She probably feels that once she goes on then she wont be able to get off. So rather than her giving in to her Y”H, she asks you to do her a favor and you readily agree. As long as you are not doing anything wrong then dont worry about it. It could be she had a problem with the internet and is just scared, who knows.
Saw you at sinai. heres why-
on frumster you dont really know who you are talking to because there are no refrences and or others involved, it can get a little scary. On SYAS-there are shadchanim and they have to designate at least 4 hours a week to all the singles they have aquired. and then and only then when both sides have agreed do they talk. that is my recommendation. but i never really had mazel on SYAS so I used frumster and was B”H successful there.
adorable- the way you said your uncle makes you feel uncomfortable made me grow a concern
why not go and do your own research for a change? why does it always have to be the parents who say they know exactly every little thing their child wants and then its the parents who become picky?! I’m happy to hear that people are starting to look for themselves for their own shidduchim and you know what…talking to shadchanim directly is much better than going thru many other people. I always spoke to shadchanim myself and it was so much better. but then when the shadchanim werent making suggestions i decided to take matters into my own hands and look for myself. and B”H I am happily married and grateful for doing it all on my own!
adorable-your little situation scares me a bit…
i was in high school at the time.
last night when i found out about Obama, I mean Osama, I was getting ready to go to sleep
wahooooooooooo!
clairvoyant-you didnt say if it was a second marriage or not
sign up for the fivetownsshul lists too
the only thing different is that they dont write the word “besulta” however they say it. but they will say it at the chuppah so as not to embarass the kallah
watched it on one of the channels when they replayed it. it was unbelievable!
mine comes from one of my favorite Dr. Seuss books so I was happy when I saw it
2c4s-i would get nervous also before a date and while on dates too. and yes id even have a panic attack sometimes. its normal. but if its getting outta hand talk to someone. that helps a lot. since you are dating someone that can be a potential it does get very scary! but read that book it does help. but if you want a good humorous book to just get you to laugh about dating, get chanie stein’s book “the survival guide to shidduchim” that also helped because you’d read it and say if everyone can do it so can i. I wanted to write a book about all my disaster and somewhat funny dates. I wrote out the chapters but never finished. but just think like this…you can have another story to tell your friends lol. But on a serious note…talk to someone you are close with and can confide in(a married person!) and that will help tremendously!
R’ Blumenkrantz is very strict as his book. I used his book but with certain products such as shampoo, conditioner, soaps etc, i asked the Rav in my shul who many times has told me it can be used since its not consumed by dogs and humans alike. Anyways, ask your own Rav and also why use bounty anyways? They are so expensive and are nto the same quality like they used to be. CVS has their own brand thats just like bounty and I found it to be better. CVS has two kinds,just dont get the bad one!
one word: WOW!
Goq-im so sorry you are going thru this. It’s so hard when there is a dispute or an ignoring situation going on. Maybe you should talk to your sibling of whom this daughter belongs to and see what is going on with her. It seems maybe you need to be direct with her and just let it out! Write her this letter for real and let her see what she is doing to you. Sometimes a letter hits harder than an actual conversation! i wish you much hatzlacha!
8 is the number that is lemalah min a hatevah!
yes its called Seasons. its originally supersol but since the owner, laurie garber sold it to mayer gold and crew it is not being called seasons. thats whats happening with all his stores…in queens, five towns, scarsdale and one other place i cant rem where
after 4th inning…where youd sit
we went and had my husbands bday written on the big screen!
i wanted to add something- i was really having cold feet because it was a new stage in life etc etc. i felt stressed as anythign also because we were doing this by ourselves. anyways i went to someone whom i had confidence in and who also runs an organization here to help with different things. I started bawling to him and once i did i felt better. he said he wanted me to see a therapist. he gave me the number, i called her and i asked her will i have to break it off? she said “i dont know, maybe.” the second i heard that i backed away from her because i loved the guy i was going to marry but i was just scared. b”H i am happily married and i was happy i got out that one good cry and i felt better. but if she is constantly crying and doesnt know what to do anymore, its time for help. i can recommend someone amazing if the mods let you email me. (and no its not the therapist he orginally had me see. someone different and better!
i freaked out a little bit before i got married too. its perfectly normal. but if its really that bad, she should talk to someone ASAP. she’ll feel better once she does
what about a dairy dinner? omlettes, pancakes?
happiest- what about chicken or hot dogs so that way you dont have to do that? someone told me thats what they do and then they eat on their porch or somethiong like that. what about shabbos? what do you make then? just giving ideas 🙂 also why not crank out the grill and have bbqs?

im an only child and i got married. its not a big deal whatsoever. in fact that means you get more attention. instead of making problems for youself, just suck it up and go for it!
student- i love my job just the hardest time is before yuntif and vacation. ask any preschool teacher and they feel the same way. i have been around kids all my life between teaching, being a counselor and a babysitter. i love every minute. i am not trying to make teachers sound bad but you have to understand we are dealing with different things then you are. come into my classroom and ask my girlies how many of them are helping mommy and want to help! about 90% of them are raising their hands because they are in someway helping their mothers. i ran into a mom today and she actually thanked me for everything i did for her kid. she didnt stop to ask me “how is my kid doing” because most people have lives outside school/work etc. in my school its a rule that the parents are not allowed to ask outside school meaning while food shopping etc. other teachers have rules i only talk in school to parents which is normal!!!!
again i am NOT complaining about my job, i am actually going back next year and i am thrilled as ever! what stress am i having exaactly? because it was the hardest week this week? so big deal. it happened before chanukah, purim, succos and now too!
do you know the amount of fighting that goes on in the classroom before a yuntif? do you know how many kids are not getting sleep before a yuntif because some parents are so busy cleaning or doing whatever, that kids take advantage and dont go to bed on time! again, these threads about schools and teachers are getting repetitive and ridiculous and someone always gets upset. again, I LOVE MY JOB AND EVERY SINGLE ONE OF MY GIRLS!
aries-THANK YOU!

Eclipse-Hashem should always give you many brachos, mazel, hatzlacha in everything, parnassah, shalom with your children, and for you to find your zivug very very soon! May Hashem give your the strength to pass each and every test that you are being given! I wish you a chag kasher vsameach, a worry free yuntif and a yuntif that will bring you good and happy things!
pumper-we went there once and the second time my husband went there him and some other guys got food poisoning from there! we stay far away!
erm_saywhat-if the hangout wasnt as it was more people would be there. I HATE going there on Sat nights eventhough i dont get there anymore, but there was a kid walking around without a shirt and I told the owner that I wasnt gonna come in anymore.
