by Ticker in

i was and i am ever thankful to this board and all the wonderful members on it that have contributed to my freedom.

i love this board it is so helpful.

JWD has made me laugh and made me cry. It is truly an amazing place.

Reading and then starting to think for myself has made me a real person for the first time.

thank you Simon and the posters on this site

Home school

by stop in

i'm new to this forum and hope to get some advice from the experts.

my exwife is a fully jw dedicated do it all convert had decided to put our 9 y.o.

daughter to home school.

I home schooled my children and both got into red brick universities but it definitely isn't for everyone.

My children are bright neither became JW's, they realised it was a cult before I did.

Wedding jitters

okay, i've got the frock, got the man... got the guy to bring the papers, it's all sorted.

finalised the numbers, faxed off the menu, programmed the ipod, waxed the legs... and it's not saturday that scares me, i think it's going to be a hugely fun night.

it's the fifty or sixty years after that.

happehanna

Perfectly natural to be nervous. Try not to take one another too foregranted and do those things that keeps love alive.

I was married for over twenty five years and its a great institution.

Best of Luck for Saturday and CONGRATULATIONS!!

i went to meeting last night (don't ask) and someone asked me to go out in service.

i was taken by surprise and actually agreed to do street work on saturday.

the sister that i'm supposed to work with has always been very kind to me and i know that there is no one else in our hall that will go out with her on saturday morning.

happehanna

You could ring her and politely say that you have a few personal things going off in your life at the moment and cant see your way clear to go in the field service for awhile. thank her for asking and wish her well.

You dont have to explain yourself too much, the less said, probably the better.

take care

a few years ago i know that the wtbts charged 1% above base rate when a local congregation needed funds from the kingdom hall build fund which all had donated to.. does anyone know if this is still the case?.
