Yehudah Tzvi ben Elisheva, you are going through a tough time. No doubt about it. May you have a complete recovery soon.
“Now my Elul is being wasted.”
Is it possible that your current ?????? are helping cleanse the slates of many among us? That would certainly not be a waste.
“I feel as if the Sitra Achra has placed this mechitza between me and Hashem.”
The successful modus operandi of the sa is Depression. It is important to be aware of this and guard against it as much as possible.
You write that you are isolated and not experiencing friends’ support. These conditions can be precursors to depression. Can someone make a visiting schedule so that your friends can come on board and remove 1/60th?
Hashem only expects you to do what you can do under these difficult circumstances and nothing more. The hardest might probably be accepting the situation with a modicum of acceptance and blessing. Tough stuff.
You have a tremendous amount of support here from the CR.
May you have a complete ????? ????? ?? ????? soon.

I haven’t followed threads where this has happened, so I’m just going by your words here.
In general, it’s really not healthy to hold back from saying or discussing something while keeping it in. Depending on the situation, this may be a passive approach (although sometimes it may be better to just ignore certain comments).
There is a skill to learn assertiveness without either aggression or passivity, and when to ignore in a healthy manner, and you may want to learn and practice it here instead of withdrawing.
I know that your presence here has contributed a lot till now, and I’m saying this after reading another refreshing comment you made on the men doing laundry thread.

Sometimes a person can learn better through osmosis by observing actions rather than by being given mussar.
The R”Y saw that the talmid felt so adamantly that it was beneath his kavod to do “menial” tasks. But the R”Y felt differently.
Imagine the talmid’s dismay to see his beloved R”Y taking out his banana peels.
I imagine the talmid absorbed the lesson well.
(A ??? should not walk around with stains on his clothing, but that’s a different principle than helping one’s wife.)
========================
Interesting to note, that the home is a “mikdash miat ???? ???.”
The ?????? saw it as a supreme privilege to do any work related to the ??? ?????, even the “menial.” Non-kohanim were not allowed to do this “menial” work.
FOOD FOR THOUGHT!
In addition, helping usually increases ???? ??? and is great ????? for the kids if there are any there.

Say aloud “????? ??? ????!”

Try this, it’s the letters in alphabetical order with nekudos and even the Yiddish vowels on the bottom:
??, ??, & ??? = 350 (when spelled properly)
If one adds ???? (another 26), = 376, which is ????
Based on the Ben Ish Chai on ?? ????
This reminds me of the story of a yingerman telling his rosh yeshiva that his wife wanted him to take out the garbage, but he felt this role is beneath a Torah scholar.
The R”Y agreed with his talmid.
That evening, the R”Y came to the talmid’s house to take out the garbage…
LL- interesting that the lashon “keren” is used in the following, among many others:
???? ??? ????? (Shmuel aleph 2:10)
?? ??? ??? ???? ???? ?????, ????? ???? ???????- Shmone Esrei
???? ?????? ??? ???? (Tehillim 132:17)
????- you can end your speech with a cutesy “may she be a “shain”-a maidel, who will probably love “nosh” (letters transposed) who can eat it with a straight “shain” (tooth) with no need for braces.
??????- may the newborn be endowed with insight, awareness, and intelligence
????- sapphire , she is precious like this precious stone.
???? is mentioned many places, including:
Shmos 24:10, 28:18, 39:11
Shir Hashirim 5:14
Yeshezkel 1:26, 10:1, 28:13
Yeshayahu 54:11
????? ????? -> may the newborn be ???? to do Hashem’s will and keep moving up in the world
?????? ?? ???? < – ??????
Last part of ???? ?????. May Hashem bring peace upon the world
??? = 350
At this auspicious time before Rosh Hashana, may the shofar of the ??? pierce ???? ???? & herald the coming of ????, also preceded by the shofar /??? sounds.
The fridge needs desperately to be replenished
It’s been a month since its contents were diminished
From soup to nuts, all the food has been finished
Can you volunteer to shop for the perennially famished?
xenogamy is a form of cross-pollination (transferring pollen from one plant to a different type of plant).
I cannot think of a single other word that fits the pattern above. Since supergirl is a student, there’s a good chance that she’s studying botany & is familiar with the term.

I always love your writing
But I happen to love rhyming!
There once was a man from Kentucky
Who one day was stung by a queen bee
When asked if it hurt
Said “Not even a squirt”
It can sting me again if it finds me.
The vasikin minyan finishes at approximately 9:30-10am, with great davening & still having a great portion of the day left.
It’s really gevaldig.
Thanks for this GREAT vort, BH
Think of it as a spring (coil) or bow and arrow:
The more tension by applying pressure further away from the target, the further the spring/arrow will go…
Shlomo HaMelech wrote “Sheva Yipol Tzaddik Vekam” – “A tzaddik falls seven times, and rises” (Mishlei 24:16).
Poshut pshat is a tzaddik moves on even with his many falls.
Rav Yitzchak Hutner ZT”L explained it that a tzaddik IS a tzaddik BECAUSE he fell 7 times, and then he got up.
In a letter to a student experiencing hard times, Rav Hutner expressed the idea that achieving gadlus is a process of overcoming and moving on. He explained that while we imagine tzaddikim being born righteous, it is more likely that they STRUGGLED to become great!
Rav Yitzchak Hutner (as told by BaalHabooze)

Mi kiamcha Yisrael!
Hashem, look at Your people who are dan lchaf zchus in so many ways; please judge your people just as favorably on the Yomim Noraim AKY”R.

Can anyone can help me be “dan l’kaf zechus?”
Can try, FG, no guarantees.
I can almost guarantee, though, that these same individuals are generally not punctual in other area of their lives.
We know that they can actually do it, as we see when they need to daven before the amud and it is necessary for them to be on time.
There is help for these people if they WANT to change, from learning about the psychology behind chronic tardiness (interesting stuff!) as well as practical behavioral changes.
Oh, yes, at least they are makpid on davening with a minyan.
And on putting on tfillin.

It exists, but it wouldn’t be a hamotzi.
Gluten-free oats is the only grain that would be gluten-free and hamotzi (barley, rye, wheat, and spelt all have gluten). (There is a more rare sheeta which holds that even oats are not hamotzi.)
There are other flours you could use that tastes great, which would be either mezonos, haadama or shehakol, depending on the flour used (rice flour, potato flour, corn flour, quinoa flour, tapioca flour, almond flour, etc.).

-Is it possible to go to a neighborhood that has an eruv?
-Can you listen online to shiurim on tshuva?
-Can you share “babysitting duty” with another mom in a similar situation so that both moms can take turns going to shul?
Btw, I’ve NEVER heard of the variation stated above..
The kehila waited for the rav to come, but the rav was delayed when hearing a baby cry. The rav tended to the baby’s needs. When finished, the rav continued to shul which is when Kol Nidre began.

There’s a nightly Torah sticky that usually stays on topic.
And please feel free to continue adding to the Parsha thread.
May you have a complete refua shlaima b’karov.

There are unfortunately many women over 50 not married.
Some never married, some widowed, some divorced.
It’s amazing that you’ve never come across them.
It would be great to invite them for havdala &/or help them shovel snow.
What do you think the odds are that your order will be canceled before shipment?…
taking a break
Thanks.
I tried the “number pad” on the jkluio789 keys, but that didn’t work either.
Any other ideas other than the external keyboard?
Is there anything written about young ‘uns calling old folk by their first names?(w/o the Rav, Reb, Mrs., etc.)
The above is from Dvarim 29:27
Thanks for the vort, MC

One can learn some math within Torah; however, show me where I can learn about functions, integration, disks and shells.
still can’t get it to work on my laptop; tried it months ago on a different CR thread

That’s why I mentioned “down” time.
Besides, ?? ????? ????? ??? ??????, and you are helping others here, too.
I was able to use the vertlech posted on the Parshas Hashavua thread on Shabbos, e.g., so those posters get credit. If they had learned the same vertlech without sharing their learning with who knows how many readers here, they would not get as much credit.

Sorry, I didn’t learn much calculus in Torah shiur.
Perhaps I was absent that day.

Good question, dz.
It would depend on other factors, such as if one is getting other things done .
Learning Torah, having intellectual discussions, etc., is a great OUTLET for down time when the other goals have been crossed off from one’s “to do” list IMHO.
dz, your ?? ?????? ???? ???? thread makes posters look up psukim in Tanach, so you get zchuyos for that!
You have personally proven that one can be ??????? ?? ????? using the CR, and that would not be considered wasting time by any stretch of the imagination.
