sitting in 8th grade classroom, our teacher went to move her car at 10 to 10 bec of alt. sides and she didnt come back till like 11:30….and we just sat in our seats and waited and waited….
my favorite part was when brad garrett announced that john vogt wasnt really jewish 🙂
chabad really does a lot of good for jews around the world.
@americaisover im not gonna say what i really think of ur comment but open up any jewish news paper and they are advertising it for $1 a day or how yeshiva/shuls take life insurance policies out for rabbanim…
but to answer chaimss its hard to give an exact number…as a newly myself of just about 10 month our expenses are quite high.
utilities are about $400 (jcp&l is ROBBING us)food is about $400+ if we have guests for shabbos, if u go out to eat a lot, etc.
about $100 on household items such as toothpaste, mouthwash, toilet paper, paper goods, laundry detergent etc.
we have whole life and term about $350 for both, my husbands health insurance $200 a month, + $$ any co pays and anything not covered by insurance or dental thats not covered by insurance can be quite pricey.
car insurance $275 gas who knows but about $200 for my car plus about $50 tolls and idk how much for my husbands…i would put $100-200 for clothing depends if u frequent the mall ull probably end up spending (we both have way too much clothing and shoes for that matter)…which reminds me dry cleaning at least $100 a month
our expenses include other stuff too but i think these are the basics for most newly weds.
hey mods, i posted this on the wrong thread, please delete the previous post
my husbands friends arranged for our limo…it was really nice for the pictures but its not a CHESSED…if u cant afford it dont go shnuering friends for moneyfor the five minutes ur in it….oh please!??!
at a friends wedding her brother asked me to chip in for the limo, i thought it was a little rude but i felt bad and gave something…
the best part of our wedding video is the “silent movie” parts…the videographer would fade out the frame and in black and white speeding up the actions making it look like a real silent film…some parts such as him chasing one of my little sister in laws around, my mother, sister and aunt talking, my brothers and father…
they did show the food and the tables and the flowers…they also randomly filmed people but that was good because some of the people i dont remember seeing. the only mistake he made on the case he put the wrong date but i didnt even bother correcting it. he was pretty funny and he knew what he was doing the editing was well done as well.
im wondering if $5175 is normal for 1 videoagrapher, a photographer and another one for the dancing…there was a mitzva tantz so it was a long night
YES!!!! we paid 5k for a photographer, videographer and a second photographer for during dancing. most of the photos are good, but after the chupah all the couple pictures were taken without a backdrop, against a nasty angle….i was annoyed but i let it go in my albums. for my enlarged picture however i asked that they photoshop it….their photoshop was WORSE than the ugly curtains background….so im just gonna take them to someone else who i know who will help by putting it on a canvas and eliminating the background. i know a lot of pple who arent happy with their wedding pictures…..what annoys me is that we didnt go cheap we got a “highly recommended guy” yet i couldve prob paid $800 and gotten the same stuff…..oh well u live and learn.
ps whats ur question!??
lakewoods a big place but most of the people here i know have a smart phone….some even have a filter!!
the people i dont know personally are the ones who stare and dont know how to drive….but this is not a lakewood venting thread so i wont go off topic
why not use the same person who did your wedding invitations….
i never really fully understood the concept of fantasy football, baseball etc…so i guess we can start there…
i went with nesivos tours when i was in seminary it was a really powerful trip http://www.nesivos.com/
hold up popa fantasy shidduchim was totally my idea!!!
ilovetheholyland…i think u sound like a really great girl and i know it may sound cliche but sometimes its quiet for a while and then all of a sudden u get a bunch of offers…someone even called me the night before i got married (someone i had previously dated who didnt know i was engaged)…sorry too late dude!!!
anyways my point is, dont listen to the guys in the cr they are in some dream fantasy world like their fantasy sports teams.?!?! there are amazing guys out there who will see past ur weight and see the beautiful girl with all ur amazing middos.
a lot of guys are dumb!!! its just a fact and they want what their eyes see but it almost never ends up very well and they learn it the hard way.
anyways there are guys out there that arent so superficial and as previously mentioned u gotta find great shadchanim that work with u not the ones u chase…
i got set up by my cousin who knew my sister in law….sometimes friends and family are the best if they know both parties.
idk what ur talking about, but just hearing the word permutation gives me nightmares of college math…which surprisingly i got an a…it does help having a frum professors!!

if ur looking for a fast way to drop 10 lbs i would say try atkins, people think u are depriving urself but really ur not and there are carbs in almost everything so ur not totally avoiding it your just cutting back….before my wedding i did it, but i also worked out….join lucielle roberts they have great classes included in their membership like zumba and kick boxing that really give u a work out!!
all my dates with my husband were amazing, here are a few ideas, the water club (nyc), central park, mets game, abigails (nyc), olgas on smith is a cute panini place(bklyn), bakshin its an indian place in the city, a musical and clubhouse cafe (nyc), tiberias is a 24 hour dairy restaurant in the city…dave and busters is always fun too, coney island when the weather is nice…
