Hi Juni, I happen to know the answer to this quesion ...Minit Drugs in Calgary Alberta, I worked there for 3 years and it is a very reputable pharmacy. It is licensed and goverened by the Alberta Pharmaceutical Association, It's a member of CIPPA and another organization. You can find that info on the web. The web site is www.pharmacy-online.ca. I can help you with any questions at all. And I can give you tips on how to save even more money. Please pm me. If you are in the states I would be happy to call you.

Were You Ever a Victim of Jealousy?

by compound complex in

dear friends,.

despite our noble intentions and the hope that we'll behave ourselves, we are downright human.

i just saw beaches again last night (bought the used tape for four bucks) and was reminded how that evil, green-eyed monster can destroy the best of relationships.

joanne_

Hi there, yes myself and an older sister were the victems of jealousy. When the service arrangement was done, this sister was to join the two of us. She made up an excuse that she had a back-call that she was going to do by herself and that she didnt want to bring us along. It felt really awkward, I mean why didnt she say this in the group when they were making up the arrangements,,,anyhow it was very rude what she did. The only thing I could see was that she was jealous that I was going back to school, in my forties and the older sister had so much money she didnt know what to do with it.

I really wanted to speak to an elder about this, but I bit my tongue and just ignored it. There were times though, I wished I would have said something. But then a few years later it turns out that she was in a deep depression and her son was giving her big big problems, now I understand her actions. She became so unhappy in her life that she could'nt be around people who were happy. So whenever I see jealousy, its usually a root of that persons deep unhappiness and I try to understand it and not hold it against the person.

Thanks everyone, the medical typing from home has always interested me. But now all I have is a laptop that keeps crashing. I would like to sell on E-bay, but what is a good seller now? Something in arts and crafts, that interests me. That would be interesting. Hmmmm And no I do not want to do tupperware or multilevel, I am not good at recruiting...lol. I am going to check out jnat's suggestion....Thanks everyone.

Meanwhile, I have joined Community Kitchens and it is just great. We cook alot and then freeze it up.

And yes, my boys have to get a job, if they want any extras at all, they have to do that.

Thanks again everyone.

Why is the Watchtower Society so cruel to teens?

by RULES & REGULATIONS in

my mom just informed me that a 17 year old has been disfellowshipped at her hall.at least 7 others have been kicked out within the last 5 years.the publisher count is only 56 .why do they let the teens get baptized so young?

i was 14 and only got baptized because of pressure and the end was coming.if you weren't baptized you would be destroyed.. why don't they wait until everyone is at leat 21?

all these teens haven't come back and you won't ever see them unless they return.i haven't seen my cousin in over 2 years.no one went to his wedding,isn't invited to any family functions and is to be avoided at all costs.. the watchtower society should be ashamed that they act that way and the parents let them get away with it..

joanne_

I totally agree, there is no activities for the kids, except to go out in service. When you attend other churches you see how they have so much going for the kids. My friends 17 year old daughter had the opportunity to go to mexico and help the orphans for a week. What a great experience that must have been for her. All the elders did with my kids, is make them feel bad and unwelcome. I wish I did not put my kids through this. They missed out on alot.
