  Anyone do Charity work?????

  by whyamihere in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  there is a few things that i am involved in, and have been for quite sometime.

  i feel that it is important to raise my children in this type of environment, so that they see outside of the box, and not be so closed minded on our surroundings.

  many are in need, and it is easy to close our eyes and forget.. my main charity work will always benefit children.. this weekend i have gathered many things from my house such as kids clothes, shoes, jackets...and i bought many blankets, cook ware, along with money etc... this will all go to easter seals.

  Hi Brooke,

  I knew you were nice, but to find out you do charity work too...you're so sweet!

  I make quilts for Project Linus - they give quilts to children who are sick in the hospital and have branched out to giving quilts to kids who are in hard family situations. They will sometimes give the quilts to the police and fire department to distribute when they give out Teddy Bears.

  I also Moderate my local Freecycle email list. I believe so much in this organization. They give everything away for free. People ask for and receive items they need or want.

  Best Regards,

  well it wasn't the long awaited visit we have been looking for, but i guess they are still working on it!

  my husband and i have been waiting for over 5 weeks for a reply back from the elders as to the date discrepancy of 607 (between the watchtower references and the appendix.

  )we blew them away when they were here, and said they would go do the research...until today we have heard nothing from anyone.

  There are no secrets at the KH. Everybody knows everything about everybody elses business.

  It makes me sick. They say they are so loving, but is it loving and compassionate to gossip and tell lies about people.

  I would write a letter or call on the telephone to Brooklyn and tell them the situation. Maybe a CO will come in and make all their panties get into a bunch for their behavior. Give a nice talk about gossip....and then 20 minutes after the meeting they'll be back to gossipping again!

  I'd ask them to stay away because they violated your privacy and you cannot trust them.

  Best Regards,

  i've become confused w/love in these past two years.

  my wife says she's polyamorous.

  that opened my eyes to a whole way of seeing things.

  Love is wanting the absolute best for the object of your affection.

  Whatever you do in your marriage is your business, but it wouldn't be happening in my marriage.

  I am jealous and someone would get killed...I'd miss my husband.

  I hate the memorial.

  For something they make such a big deal about, it is sofa king boring.

  All those once a year people suddenly show up like Jesus was coming to the hall that night!

  So stupid! Always the same boring talk, too many people, snorefest!

  how many currently or in the past have worked from home??

  any ideas that can be shared to make this an even more pleasant work environment?

  i know for me it would be more interacting with other business owners living the same life style.

  I have worked at home for 6 years. Not only being mom to my 2 wonderful sons, but also selling on ebay.

  I also have worked for a reputable company doing transcription at home over the internet.

  It's nice to be with my boys and I haven't missed any of their milestones.

  I have a area in my house where I keep all my work stuff. I wake up early when the boys are sleeping and work, also stay up late.

  I see people more regularly now that my oldest is in school.

  I wonder if this is the new bling bling at the KH!

  Seriously though, what about tromping her faith by reporting her to the WTS.

  It can't be authorized can it?

  Maybe being treated badly by the mother organization would tromp all over her faith in the WTS and make her see the real light.

  Messing with someones income is a sure way to make someone really mad!

  Diet fail factors

  by greendawn in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  when you are on a diet what is it that tempts you most to give it up or if you succeed in your diet objectives what is it afterwards that tempts you to overeat and start putting on weight again?

  unfortunately most dieters that lost weight regain it.

  long term successful weight loss is elusive for most people.

  Whenever I am trying to watch what I eat, my husband brings me Godiva Chocolate....

  That sometimes hurts the diet.....!

  But seriously,

  I used to be 350+ pounds. I had gastric bypass and lost almost 200 lbs.

  I watch what I eat, stay away from lots of sugar, and try to exercise everyday.

  But its very hard especially in times of stress...when my natural tendency is to run to the Danish Butter Cookies!

  I am not nor ever have I been a JW.

  I did think of joining for the all you can eat buffet at the KH on the night of the Memorial but all they served was some stale flat bread and cheap wine....

  Sigh...

  I am married to a born in JW who has been fading for the last few years.
