a maminParticipant
Mi Keamcha Yisroel!! I get such chizuk from seeing the out pouring of tefilla that everyone is undertaking for a complete stranger!Yehuda Tzvi ben Elisheva , May you be inscribed for a healthy and prosperous year with Kol Tuv!
a maminParticipantPeople who date do not necessarily know their mates better than you do. The Chassidisher way has been working for many years, though it is not to say it can work for everybody.The fact remains, talking to your choson in engagement will not let you know him better. You don’t really know anyone best until you live with them!Don’t let anyone convince you otherwise. I had one child that spoke to her choson( because of their request) , it was absolutely ridiculous and she will be the first one to admit it! Mazel Tov!! Wishing you a great engagement!
a maminParticipantWhen I got married my husband taught me how to wash the laundry. Now I would never let him do the laundry,I do all of it myself. I feel he can help with other things when necessary. We are both working and certain chores should not be done by men.I guess it depends on how picky you are with your laundry…
September 20, 2011 6:12 pm at 6:12 pm in reply to: I need a cleaning lady in BP. (Its way before Pesach ; ) #811070a maminParticipantI would never do that!! I do treat them with respect but they have to earn it! You could just imagine all the stories I have to tell. My source is not a good one apparently. So please anyone know of any good sources in Boro Park??
a maminParticipantThis is a real sad thread… we definitely are doing something wrong! As hard as we try.. For example, chutzpa is never tolerated in my house but I can’t say my children are as respectful with elders as much as i would like. My husband blames the exposures the kids get today.
September 20, 2011 12:10 am at 12:10 am in reply to: I need a cleaning lady in BP. (Its way before Pesach ; ) #811067a maminParticipantI am also desperate for a good cleaning lady! I’VE HAD A DIFFERENT CLEANING LADY every week FOR THE LAST 10 WEEKS!! I really need help!!
a maminParticipantNo one is saying the males are totally innocent either! Though we as women have an “achrayis” to dress ( And Act) properly!
September 13, 2011 4:53 pm at 4:53 pm in reply to: Enforcing your Kasruth Chumras on others – Rant #809654a maminParticipantReally depends on how important these guests are to you?
a maminParticipant“THERE ARE A FEW THOUGH THAT HAVE A TUG OF WAR WITH THEIR HEMLINE” Isn’t this enough of a reason for us to work on it??? Wake up women smell the coffee!!!
a maminParticipantI have the magic mill and am very happy with it.
September 12, 2011 8:14 pm at 8:14 pm in reply to: Am I the oldest person in the CR. Anyone else nearly 50 #810372a maminParticipantReba: Do you actually expect us to give a way our age?????
a maminParticipantQueen Bee: The girls who are dressing to attract attention KNOW IT!! You can look very good and not attract attention, its all part of what Tznius is all about!! No one says that you have to walk around looking horrible. I deal with many different types of girls in my line of work. I have to tell you it doesn’t suprise me when I hear their are issues, because of the impression these girls make. It’s not just their way of dress, which needs a tikun, it’s how they walk and talk etc.
September 12, 2011 5:21 pm at 5:21 pm in reply to: Washing negel vasser before getting out of bed #1090510a maminParticipantSo are the Chasidim here!!
a maminParticipantRaphael Kaufman: You definitely don’t have the sensitivity to deal with this issue in a kosher fashion!
BPT: Unfortunately you are on TARGET for many of the issues described, but not necessarily the writer here.
Geshmakee Mentch: If you live in new York, send your resume to PCS.
There are many kosher places to work.hatzlocha!!
a maminParticipantWhat about when someone asks someone how many children they have, when they don’t have any? It can be a totally innocent question and yet so insensitive! The point is before we open our mouth we need to think, is this appropiate under all circumstances?
a maminParticipantFloewy: You are 100% correct. We need all the Yiden out there to hire ONLY yidden! Who else should help our own brothers and sisters? There all all sorts of qualified candidates, you just need to specify what you are looking for! Hire someone you can trust!
a maminParticipantHaleivi: Are you serious??? That clip was absolutely HORRIBLE!! People need to control their anger and if they can’t they have no right being parents!! That is not what chinuch is all about!!I was sick after watching that clip!!
a maminParticipantPCS also has an office in Boro Park that help hundreds of candidates. It is a wonderful organization, whoever they are able to help, Hakal Revach. There is no fee either.
Anyone know of good positions available can also call in to PCS. The greatest tzedaka is helping someone find a job!!
Hatzlocha!!
a maminParticipantMy take: I give you a lot of credit! You certainly are doing the right thing!!
a maminParticipantEvery situation is different but maybe try to keep yourself busy with something? We dont know much details like how old you are, are you mArried etc? If you are married I would say take some cleaning project in your house.
a maminParticipantMazel Tov Always!! Wow, one simcha right after another!!
You really need your rest! I hope by the time the chasunah comes you wont be so overwhelmed and you will be able to handle your new family member!
September 5, 2011 4:05 am at 4:05 am in reply to: Chassidish Minhagim and which Chassidus does it #972632a maminParticipantNadverna eineklich eat in the Sukkah Shemini Azeres and do not eat gebrochts on acharon shel Pesach because the last day is just like the first day of Yom Tov.
a maminParticipantI have a Tehilim group and when we finish we make a mishabarach for many cholim, on Shabbos. Not everyone feels you can not do this.
a maminParticipantThank all of you for your input! Besides waiting for test results, I do know someone who was diagnosed with Wilson Disease after being treated by a Pyschiatrist for Bipolar. Thats where the question came from.
a maminParticipantDr. 80 Can you give me any info?
a maminParticipantFamily member might have it.
a maminParticipantI did. Now I am asking for anyone with personal knowledge of this disease. Can not treating Wilson Disease cause Bipolar Disorder?
a maminParticipantIntrospection, what happened in the past year, what are we praying for , for the coming year?
a maminParticipantBOMB:: Go for it!! If anyone can do it, YOU CERTAINLY CAN!!! HATZLOCHA and Tizku lemitzvos!!!
a maminParticipantWell to wrap up this thread, I would like to reiterate the purpose of venting here. All of you out there who are married, dont assume it doesnt bother your spouse to share your attention with a blackberry!!!
a maminParticipantI think everyone is busy being too hasty and jumping to conclusions. Why dont you all just sit back and see what happens?
a maminParticipantWould your employer allow you to keep your job and stay an hour less?
a maminParticipantBetter safe than sorry. Stay home.
a maminParticipantYummy!!
a maminParticipantWe try our best to raise them right and then….. We need alot of siyatta Deshmaya!! I think my girls are great!!! ( Though I am not biased in any way!!) I hope my sons are also great!! ( As far as their wives think)
a maminParticipantI would look at her and all her unwarranted comments like: NEBACH!!!
a maminParticipantTell me when was the last time you gave information on a bucher that he is addicted to his cellphone, playing ball with his friends etc.?
Anyway he didn’t have a blackberry before the wedding, only a plain old fashioned phone. My daughtwer never complains about anything, she always makes sholem with the matzav. Though,she has told others( Siblings) its just a sign of immaturity. She hopes he will grow out of it…
a maminParticipantYou need to read my posts before answering, I said I never mix in and don’t make any insinuations…. My children have enough to deal with without my interference. I said I was only venting here in the cr, hoping maybe someone else might learn how frustrating it might be to a spouse!
August 24, 2011 4:50 pm at 4:50 pm in reply to: Life as the son of a Child Molester: My story #819664a maminParticipantMiddle Path: I found this thread to be truly an inspiration, one of the most beautiful threads I ever read in the CR.(Except for some chat btwn….) Wishing you inner peace , tranquility and most of all GOOD MAZEL!!
a maminParticipantAries: Even though your answers are quite smart, they don’t apply to me. This couple is around all the time, saying let’s close our phones wouldn’t work. What bothers me the most, is what my daughter may or may not have to put up with?? He does it when they are sitting alone eating also.Don’t worry I won’t say a word I am just venting…. Any of you guys reading this out there? Can you imagine a wife coming home after a long day at work and wanting to discuss her day and having to compete with your black berry????
August 23, 2011 6:25 pm at 6:25 pm in reply to: Earthquake in Brooklyn! (and surrounding out-of-town places) #801322a maminParticipantThis is truly frightening!!!!
a maminParticipantI hope I’m not fooling myself, by saying I make a point of not meddling! That’s why I am posting here and NOT discussing it with my daughter.
a maminParticipantI don’t feel comfortable doing that. You have to understand sometimes they eat alone at the table , just the two of them and he’s still doing it!!
a maminParticipantDY: very cute!!!
Adorable:; I am the dreaded shvigger! What should I say? It’s quite annoying sitting across the table from someone playing with his phone throughout the entire meal!! I wonder if my daughter doesn’t mind it all the time. Don’t ask me to ask her because I would never want to bring it up, to cause any more anguish!What I want to know is what happened to today’s generation? Aren’t there any manners anymore?
August 18, 2011 6:18 pm at 6:18 pm in reply to: Teenage girls and older chewing gum on the street #800895a maminParticipantI find it very unclassy the way some people chew their gum, to put it mildly! As far as Tznius is concerned , anything that makes people look can be questionable.
a maminParticipantDefinitely, do not call yourself. Have someone else suggest it for you this way no one will get directly hurt, if the answer is not to your liking. Hatzlocha!
a maminParticipantChasdei Hashem Ki lo Somnu!
a maminParticipantWe should only hear Besiras Tovos!!
a maminParticipantModerator 80: I don’t believe you!!!
a maminParticipantAlways runs: I think we need to STOP looking in our neighbors homes to see what they do and do not have. You never really know what’s going on by your neighbors home inside( unless you live there).Live and let live!
