Sometimes there are tough hugs felt some last night.....

I found another beautiful hug today that was always there..

Every time i have a fall,i come out with beautiful insights afterwards that really help me in my struggle.
It feels like Hashem felt bad that He had to give me that fall,so He gives me some comfort hugs.
Thanks Tatte

Gotta admit Im curious

Lotsa hugs over YOm Tov.

My house was really a pathetic looking place erev Yom Tov:
My married daughter (over for the week) was sick with a stomach bug
I was bedbound with the same yucky bug
My husband was in the emergency room with my son checking out a possible serious complication of Step throat
and a few others were roaming around groaning about sore heads, stomachs or whatevers.

...and nothing was cooked for YM, and no was up to doing it!

Surprise surprise, my 17 yr old tzaddik, and my older-than-17-yr-old son-in-law took over the kitchen, cooked up a storm and even cleaned up after themselves! HUG HUG HUG

Honestly, I really had been panicking wondering what would be about food for Hoshana Raba and Shabbos. If they hadnt come through, we really would have been stuck big time!

And after Hashem showed me that if He wants, He can even get the cooking done(!), he sent my son home with nothing more than regular Strep(BH antibiotics!), sent a refuah sheleima to everyone, and all is well in the 7up house!

HUG!

More hugs coz this really aught to be the most active thread on the forum!

Had an amazing guest with us all Sukkos who helped make this Sukkos one of the most enjoyable in years
My kids adored him, which means they were happy - read "no arguing"
My husband enjoyed his company - read "happy hubby"
and even our friends and neighbors liked him - read "leibedik sing-alongs!

I miss Sukkos already  :-\

I reserve him for NEXT sukkos!

Reserve who?
My 17 yr old?
My son-in-law?
My guest?

> (jealous son)
who is this mystery guest that has you all excited??
He must've been really something.
Probably a very special person.
Did he read books to your kids and play guitar for everyone in the succah??
Cause that's my specialty!
I'm reserving you guys for next year

I have a feeling that Uri and my guest would either be best friends, or hate each other. May depend on the moment even...

Uri, next year we hope to serve karbonos instead of cholent. Hope that wont upset your poll....

Where do u think the meat from the karbonos goes?
Straight into the chulent!

Touche!

Cholent hugs :-X

Dear Mom,

Was great reading about your hugs!
Really hope that you are feeling well.
And I miss sukkos too!
I think that we're supposed to,
after all what is isru chag all about?
I give you a bracha that you will always feel
the bchinas sukkos in your life.
We are always fully surrounded by HKB"H
and His world and His blessings!!

Thanks for the reply Sturggle.
You are so right, Sukkos can always be with us. It really is a way of mind.
How comforting to always be cacooned and safe in Hashems Sukkah.

WOW

Where are all the hugs?
This thread keeps on falling back?
Ok, it's not like I am posting here everyday either... :-[

Either way, I just got a HUG!
I do not want to go into details for various reasons,
but I wanted to take care of some monetary issue
and I needed to speak to someone in order to do so,
but I wasn't sure what number to call
and I knew that I would receive a call from him/them eventually...

So, I know it was going to happen anyway,
but I just got the phone call and b'ezras Hashem
the issue is, or will shortly be, taken care of,
and I wanted to be makir toda here.

I think b'chlal, even if there is a natural occurrence
or something that we might have expected
(Dov, Mom, what was that about expectations again?),
it is still a HUG when it happens.
