yogiboobooMember
two words….BARUCH HASHEM!
yogiboobooMemberwell FYI i am not a teenager. also i have no patience to talk to people on the phone half the time and these days who has time to send whole long emails. therefore i facebook people and get to keep up with many. if you have such a problem with facebook maybe get rid of yours or dont get it. half the people im friends with on FB i wouldnt talk to on a daily basis. some live in israel, australia even south africa. im happy to talk to them on FB. you wanna know what I do on FB? ill tell u. i upload pictures(i was able to show pictures of my wedding to cousins who couldnt be there and friends who werent invited), i see others pictures, i play games and i can randomly message someone to say hi. Maybe since you were told you cant be on FB for some reason you became against it? is that possible? maybe you got into trouble? who knows. yes there have been times that things were saifd on FB and people got themselves into trouble but you know what you can take the positive out of it and use it.
yogiboobooMembers2021-he acame home from his shiur last night at like 1030 and only then started sweeping and mopping the floors! if anyone comes to steal him its not a problem as long as they pay him!
yogiboobooMemberi would love a cleaning lady but for some odd reason my husband does the ichy stuff i hate. B”H for husbands! when pesach comes im getting one. the other day my husband tells me that at the beginning of march I wont be allowed to eat in our room anymore because hes going to clean it. i said thats wayyyyy before purim and we can wait till the end of march lol!

yogiboobooMembercandy…not true maybe where ur from
yogiboobooMemberi just thought of a cute idea. What if you all dressed up as different berries. and say “have a ‘berry’ happy purim. strawberries blueberries etc
yogiboobooMemberDevora benjamin helped with ours! she is amazing!
yogiboobooMemberumm- you are NOT alone! i do it day and night. My husband cant stand that I do it. but i cant help it. as a matter of fact as i read your post I started picking. It is such a bad habit. Shabbos is worse. I try to not make myself bleed but if my husband catches me he warns me shabbos shabbos. and i say “wait ok yeah i know but one more pull.” i’ve been doing it for years. at night i put on this aquaphor type stuff from CVS to just calm it down and moisten it but next morning im back to picking. i also chew the inside of my mouth(lips) im just “addicted.” im totally together with you on this one!
yogiboobooMemberCulinaryk-
id use that recipe but I have a recovering alcoholic coming to my house and he cant have a single thing!
Oomis-sounds yum!!! but after all the cooking i did this week i cant cut up another potato lol!
I think im going to use duck sauce, OSM and ketchup
yogiboobooMemberi love doing short over long!
yogiboobooMemberits a roast
yogiboobooMemberTBL- thats exactly why FB isnt as bad! You SEE who you are talking to! you KNOW who you are talking to! Here you can be talking to men to women and women to men. I love Facebook and all the it enatils. I’ve been able to keep up with people and see them go from seminary to marriage to having kids and watching their kids grow! That’s the good of Facebook. So here I will agree with Mike and say look into it before you bash it!
yogiboobooMemberi say it to all genders i dont care. everyone is a human being and deserves to be treated as such. I just can not not say Good Shabbos to anyone(unless of course i dont like them 🙂 jk)

yogiboobooMembercofeefan….did we work together????? lol.
sounds like the treacher i used to work with did that
yogiboobooMemberDO NOT DO THE HOMEWORK!
sorry for the caps but had to use them! 🙂
yogiboobooMemberfirst of all dont leave your shoes in the middle of the room that just isnt smart. second if they give you a round about time then you should be prepared.
i had people where i would fall asleep on their couch or with the kids when i was putting them to sleep and the parents would come hom and he would say “you just woke up didnt you” and then hed say “yeah we fall asleep all the time putting them to bed.” one time i woke up just as i heard the door open.luckily im very close with these people!
another couple i babysat for they called me to tell me they would be home at eleven. they showed up an hour later(it was only like 930) and he told me he does that so he can have more time should he need it.(that was weird)
yogiboobooMemberCR can be just as bad as Facebook. Here’s why. Men and women are chatting to each other all the time here and on Facebook you can pick and choose who you want to be friends with. So if you have such a problem with FB then maybe you dont belong in here either. I’m sure if you asked your Rav what to do he’d tell you to get rid of the internet all together.
The lashon harah and the rechilus and the people bashing that goes on here is way worse than what goes on on FB. On FB you can control and have privacy controls on what you say/do etc. but here it can get so intense that people dont hold back! So before you go bashing FB(and all the good that it does) think about what you are doing here!
yogiboobooMemberask ur LOR
yogiboobooMemberask the seminaries what the recommend. also talk to your daughter’s highschool. they deal with this all the time! when i applied 7 years ago i did the israel/touro option eventhough i neever went to touro and i did the chicago place too.(they still send us mail).
yogiboobooMemberin the yated newspaper. yated.com
yogiboobooMembermbachur-its spelled ERNIE and he is my favorite!!!!!!!!!!!!!
yogiboobooMemberim near flatbush and id love to host them but it would VERRRRY far walk! i know people in boro park though. might i suggest shabbat.com that might be able to help?
yogiboobooMembercommon sense-the kids im talking about all go to local schools adn they are def texting left and right. the principals here are NOT happy that their students have cell phones.
Kookalibeer-i have a great idea. why dont you write in to the chinuch roundtable and ask the panelists there
yogiboobooMemberwhy do u want to melt it??
yogiboobooMemberi look at the kids in my community and I am trying to fathom why they have cell phones! some kids got them at age 10 and others at 12 or 13. I mean come on what is this world coming to that they all have to have cell phones. I went to pick up a kid in a school, in junior high and they had bins for the 6th 7th and 8th grades to drop their phones off in the bins. 6th grade! what is this? why do they need a cell phone??? if your child is mature and old enough to handle the responsibilities it comes with than gzunte heit(however you spell) but if not then dont even think about it. kids today are so spoiled and they need to be up to par with everyone else and it’s just not normal. Sorry I had to get that off my chest!
yogiboobooMemberi do get many things! but im glad u think ur funny!
yogiboobooMembereclipse you dont have to melt it. you can get all your personal stuff removed from your hard drive and save it to another computer etc. theres a place in BP that can do it. its located on 18th and 60th i think. there’s a guy dovid there that can help. otherwise my husband does these things…
yogiboobooMemberall in all…I’ve been waiting all my life to have guests and now I’m glad I get to host! it’s so much fun, especialy since now I get to have all the people that used to have me!
Also when your host says not to bring anything then dont. Sometimes they really dont want it. When they say just yourselves bring just yourselves!
yogiboobooMembermod 80-i dont get it..
February 6, 2011 4:51 am at 4:51 am in reply to: How Many Seconds After Havdalah Did YOU Check In? #879036yogiboobooMemberwell….i turn my computer on after shabbos but i dont get on till after havdallah which is usually ten min later or so.
yogiboobooMembermy husband has a friend who would come over and when i would serve the main food he would literally take 3 pulkas(or more) onto his plate. that was the first round of the main meal. I was like OMG!!! now i only put out half of what i have and hide the rest because i want to make sure that we end up having dome leftovers for the nest day and the week. then hed ask me to make sweet potato pie. YUM! but what would happen he’d eat like half and leave the rest for the rest of the table. i really dont like having him.
Another time we had another one of my husband’s friends. what did he do? he got bored so he brought his book to the table and started reading. he didnt like the conversation that was being held.
Another time I had my friend with her husband and she had said he liked heimish food. OK fine. So i made fish and chicken etc. i bring out the food and he says…”whats in this? is there sugar? i cant have sugar. how did you make this?” all I was thinking was that I’m not having them again. It was so rude.
another time I had a vegetarian. Not doing that again!
yogiboobooMemberverizon????
yogiboobooMemberi live in a basement of a two family house. i salt MY area. the people above me are so lazy they have yet to salt the walkway. they only did their stairs. countless times i would salt but then i realiazed id have to keep buying mroe and i said i dont even own so why should i. then the neighbor who uses our driveway alwayas parks in a way that we can never get into our apartment thru the driveway and its all icy and they dont anythign abt it either.
yogiboobooMemberoh and then its bad bec the pot holes are growing by the dozen and gettting bigger!

February 3, 2011 8:53 pm at 8:53 pm in reply to: How can we encourage more people to become active Shadchanim? #736739yogiboobooMemberCan I ask something? What happened to the days when there were events at shuls or having mixed seating for singles at weddings? I know there will be people who may or may not agree with me but why can’t people meet in other ways aside for shadchanim? If there is such a crisis why not chnage things around a little?
yogiboobooMembersince i was a guest by many people i knew the do’s and dont’s.
DO help with kids
DONT do things that will upset the host or hostess
DO strip the beds after sleeping over unless they tell you not to which one family told me not to bec she didnt like the bed with no sheet.
DONT just sit there!
DONT fill up your plate with all the food and not leave for others(that goes for men)
DONT drink all the alcohol(bachurim)
Now that I am a hostess I finally see what was going on behind the scenes and B”H I did all the good that I did. My husband’s friends that come over, some of them are polite and help others just sit there and dont do a thing. One guy was supposed to bring 2 friends with him but bec he was gettting drunk the night before he never showed. I told him he’s not allowed back for a long time since I prepared for him and the other 2 and what he did wasnt right. There are some people that come that I have to tell them to watch their mouths. some people are just so inappropriate i just dont get it.
February 3, 2011 3:52 pm at 3:52 pm in reply to: How can we encourage more people to become active Shadchanim? #736730yogiboobooMemberi keep trying to set up friends left and right. thats what friends are for. currently i have two friends going out with each other. as much as it is a tiring job im glad to be doing it! If I can even make one shidduch in my life I’d be happy as ever!
yogiboobooMembera challah dekel, challah tray, sterling silver knife, washing cup, dining room table and a few chairs, havdallah set(silver) and a mayim achronim! thats what i cherish. while i loved the cash nothing compared to the actual gifts i got.
February 2, 2011 6:03 pm at 6:03 pm in reply to: Are you going to watch/listen to the superbowl? #735641yogiboobooMemberwe are having a party!

yogiboobooMemberwhen we went to a family we are friends with who are chassidim they had gala and my husband never had it before now he really liked it. oh that and chicken feet in the chulent which he learned from them too. we tried to get him to eat liver but that never took off.
