Wolf~ I say ‘ditto’ to oomis.
yup! I figured the majority of Mods were in walled cities celebrating Purim 😉
shameful behavior 2x on this man’s part.
maybe something else happened in his life (that day?), but, regardless, his behavior was absolutely unacceptable & uncalled for. such anger shown to your son was inappropriate!
s2021~ no offense, but I think spinning this fairy tale of fantasy is veryyy peculiar; wouldn’t it just be easier to say: “it’s complicated” when a person is inquiring into your personal business?
if the truth gets out, & it usually does, your reputation & credibility will always be suspect and questioned. JMHO.
shopping & buying can try to fill a hole, an emptiness… such as the loss of a loved one, as one example; or a feeling of emptiness like feeling unloved, being in a (somewhat) loveless relationship.
I thought a thought.
But the thought I thought
wasn’t the thought I thought I thought.
If the thought I thought I thought
had been the thought I thought,
I wouldn’t have thought so much.
also, my daughter-in-law is one of 9 children, ka’h… she’s in the middle: 2 older brothers & 2 older sisters had only happiness for her getting married first in the family. now, 9 months later, her oldest brother just got engaged, B’H!
I believe each in his/her own time with the right one, iy’H.
maybe it’s harder if they’re of the same gender.
my younger daughter got married before her brother; he definitely had no problem with it. B’H, he got married 5 months later, tho’.
Goq~ Oh Nuts!
FINALLY, some wine!! thanks for the Bartenura, oh youngest daughter o’mine! 🙂
blankity-blank would’ve been worse!! lol 😉
hahaha,ROTFL, Shrek! Happy Purim!!!! ;=D
I’m posting today– Purim day– & making myself laugh!!!! hahahaha.. HAPPY PURIM, peeps!!! 🙂
yes, Imaofthree~ I was in your shul last night & wanted to say something about your children shooting off those cap guns, but was too busy stomping on those poppers that are mostly duds & litter up the shul floor so badly!!!! J/K!! LOL! Happy Purim!! ;-P
after giving the guest some Reisman’s cake from the freezer, I’ll just keep the cake for myself that my ‘shneer’ (‘shnur’?) made!! lol, Happy Purim!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ;=D
Purim Shpiels, fellow CR-niks!! ;-P
this morning in shul, some women complimented me on my ‘so authentic-looking hippie’ costume!!… only thing is that I was dressed in my normal clothes!! (except for the multi-colored mylar wig w/ flowers in my ‘hair’). ;-D
We have company in our dining room right now, but I’m in the next room– the living room– posting & eating nosh 🙂 Happy Purim! 😀
ambien :/
Good Shabbos & a Happy Purim to all!! 😀
gotcha, Wolf. Good Shabbos & Happy Purim! 🙂
Wolfish~ “I stay up late to say it…”
you know there are those (like my DH) who say that you don’t say tehillim at night? I’m just sayin’…..
Aries~
my daughter just recently suffered the loss of an early pregnancy :,( & I asked her if she owns any ruby jewelry, like earring studs for example. (it’s her birthstone anyway).
judgmental much, OP?
definitely a coffee. sometimes oj. last night: rye toast w/ muenster cheese. after tisha b’av in the country: potato soup. otherwise, it’s whatever I can get my hands on (no fleishigs, tho’),
did anyone else ever read ‘Letter to the Hebrew Congregation at Newport’, written by George Washington in Aug., 1790?
caffee vs. cawfee.
also- people from Oregon pronounce it Ore-gon, others Are-a-gon.
righteous Gentiles who saved Jews during WWII
I always found this Chicago-ism to be cute: ‘do you want to go with?’ as opposed to:’ do you want to go with me/us?’ 🙂
it’s ketchup vs. catsup
soda, couch, supper
bpt~ how’d you know that last year, when we ran short, we got from my brother-in-law, who had overbought?! LOL 😉 <true story>
getting an aliyah to the Torah for your birthday is a gedolim thing?! hmmm… maybe it’s just a Chassidishe thing? cuz my husband & sons always (try to) get aliyahs for their birthdays. or maybe a Lubavitch thing, cuz we have shiychus…
eclipse~ it sounds rude, I guess, but more so disrespectful? but I think it’s just a way of not giving credence to the person’s unwanted advice. why would one give you more unwanted advice if you just basically put a ‘the end'(‘talk to the hand’) sign to the conversation? it’s showing that you have no interest in what was said, & that seems to be encouragement enough for no further convo.
it may seem harsh, but the example you gave was of a veryyy rude (passive-aggressive) yenta! :/
gift certificate to a seforim store.. $10, $18, more if you’re able, depending on your budget & how many rebbes/morahs you have to get for.
or, as I said at the top of this thread, hit ’em with a flat ‘yeah, whatever’ > that’s a conversation ender right there! it’s the verbal equivalent of turning your back and walking away.
ppd is a real depression brought on by, most probably, great hormonal changes. altho’ of course proper diet, sufficient sleep ( hmmm. is that possible?), cleaning help , & of course the husband’s support (& exercise could help) are all beneficial to any woman who has just given birth, I think it’s deeper than that & needs to be treated by a doctor/therapist. JMO.
concert tickets
take a warm bath or a refreshing shower…
look out the window, watching trees in the breeze, cloud formations, <finding the beauty in even the smallest things in Hashem’s world!>, general distractions in the street.(if you can’t get out for a walk).
personally, if feeling anxiety, I’d take a xanax.. but that’s me.
binahyeseira~ I don’t read the backs or insides of book jackets either… prefer surprises, or just that the information comes to me in it’s proper time & place. (what was I again, an INSJ?, lol)
DY~ *dripping* with sarcasm, your answers made me laugh … especially showing self-control 😉
open it.
but I never read the ending of a book until I’m up to it.
my one-liner suggestion: ‘yeah, whatever’
Good Vuch/Shavua Tov! so the young couple just left…
truth be told~ we have a Toldos Aaron cousin from Yerushalayim who married a girl from Tosh, & they live in Tosh. no problem, B’H.
so I was gonna make a nice duckling for Friday night, but she said she’d prefer a roast.
s2021~ when we ‘Mmmm’ it’s not like we’re grunting & smacking our lips… it’s a gentle sound ;-P
much thanks to my DH who replaced my laptop tonight!!!! my other one had died about 2+ months ago. :)))
much appreciation to my older son for sharing his with me in the meanwhilst. :)))
not sure of the name- Sefardic Bikur Cholim?… on MacDonald Ave. @ Kings Hwy.
ok, here we go: as I put on my facebook status Monday afternoon, that MY DAUGHTER saw & questioned me as to what I was referring: ‘Der mensch trakht un Gott lahkh’.
