(this really belongs under chitchat but I wanted an anonymous forum)

Mine is-

For the first time in about 3 or 4 years (no joke) my ironing basket is actually EMPTY. And not because some kid upended it all on to the floor. I've actually done ALL of the ironing. A true bracha from HKBH.

LOL LOL LOL !!!

I'm hoping for a neis Chanukah tomorrow at a doctor's appointment. I found out at my last prenatal ultrasound that my cervix was measuring shorter than they'd like. So they want me to come back and recheck tomorrow morning. I am hoping for a miracle that it's all been resolved!!

This neis happened on Chanukah when I was 19. I finally took my road test, after pushing off doing so for years cuz I was nervous I’d fail. I was very anxious in that stage of my life.

Two minutes into my test, the instructor told me that if I kept driving the same way I’d driven so far, he’d have to fail me. I had thought up until that moment that I was doing well, so his comment really surprised and horrified me. We reached a stop sign and I stopped. A car was coming, and had the right of way, but I was so nervous that I turned right after stopping, cutting that car off and nearly crashing into it. My instructor was like “that was REALLY bad!!”

I was near tears as we drove back to the testing spot. I was sure that he’d fail me.

Miraculously, he didn’t! He told me that he could tell I have the necessary skills, and that I was just too nervous to display them. I nearly hugged him, lol!

My driving teacher, who had driven me to the test, told me that the specific instructor I had fails a lot of her students for making mistakes a lot less significant than cutting a car off at a stop sign. She couldn’t believe that I passed!

I felt so discombobulated for afterwards, because I felt like I didn’t deserve to pass. I haven’t gotten into an accident or gotten a single ticket since getting my license, so I guess I really did know enough to get my license. Smile

It was a Chanukah miracle- if I’d failed that test, it would probably have taken me quite a while to get over my fear of failing again. I don’t know if I’d have my license today!

A more current Chanukah miracle- I got a 14% raise today! The company I work for is known to be stingy about giving raises, and I only started working for them several months ago. My manager told me that they have a hard time retaining employees because of their refusal to give significant raises, so I’m their guinea pig to see if paying employees better really makes them stay with the company.

I feel so grateful and undeserving. Hashem loves me so much! Baruch HaShem.

I just posted in the Augest 2019 thread.... That is my nes!!! I have health issues, was medically required to be in b.c., was expecting to have to have intervention to conceive as many with my health condition require assistance. My issues developed after my precious children were born so I had no idea of what to expect of my body. BH we are here at this point, only 3 cycles off of b.c. and no RE needed!!!! Only an end got other medical issues but not fertility related!! Chasdei Hashem.... It is a miracle
I just found out a few hours ago
Still in shock

Chasdei Hashem! We got a stc scholarship (full tuition) for one of my kids school. We've been struggling a lot financially and haven't made even one payment this year and we're behind on payments from last year. I thought they weren't giving any more of the stc scholarships, that they ran out of funding awhile ago. I am so thankful to Hashem for this!

Found out that a friend of mine is expecting, after four years and a diagnosis that has a very low chance of IVF working. It absolutely made my day, and even though she looks to be about halfway through the pregnancy, I'm calling this a Chanukah miracle.

I am bH 8 weeks pregnant and feeling very very sick. When I pulled myself out of bed this morning and attempted to get dressed I was thinking, "Hashem how in the world will I get through today, I could barely put on my shell." BH a couple of hours later, I am dressed, davened, at work, though still feeling nauseas. My toddler is dressed, had breakfast, has a clean diaper and is at his morah. Hodu LaHashem.

Just came to update that Bh my neis happened!!! The tech said that the previous one must have measured the wrong angle because now it was totally normal looking! And they don’t ever grow bigger only smaller. I can’t believe it! I’m in a state of happy shock!

Two years ago I had a baby and could not get him to nurse. I was pumping and trying and pumping and trying. After about six weeks of this, I was very sadly ready to throw in the towel and just do formula. I’d only been pumping lately so I figured I’ll try one last time- and on that day- one of the days of Chanukah-my baby just started to nurse for the first time!!! And kept it up for the next year!!
