Thanks sparkplug. I waited a long time to have my own home--sure wouldn't want to lose it! When I was little, our house burned down and we lost everything--don't want to go thru that again!

I'm going to talk to my son today about what the fire looked like and where things were on the table--I think my husband is not telling me the whole story.

so yes, the brothers came for "encouragement" and of course, my husband is out of town on business... so it was me and the kids.. so i did let them in, i like these brothers...these are some things we discussed.... 1. i went over how that stupid "obey" email got all this started, got me to divulge to my girlfriend how i was feeling about the whole religion.

about how at the end of the call she said that she can't associate with me anymore, and then right after that call/ 30seconds later while i'm crying a pioneer called and asked "do you consider yourself one of jeh witnesses anymore??

" and i thought that was crazy for someone to try to trap me when i was sitting crying on the phone, upset with the last call... i told them that for all purposes i am already dfed since noone will talk to me anymore, and only one friend called to see what happened, everyone else just listened to the gossip of whatever spread, and wrote me off even though i'm technically in good standing.

Also, what truly astounds me is that all the attention that individual flock members received is now forever LOST. Those who were timid and shy would only participate in small groups... They felt that THIS was their FAMILY. And now the family has been taken away and those rank and file will fade into the audience, never to put up their hand up again.... How considerate of the WTS!

I knew many who would answer at the bookstudy but never at the KH!

Whenever someone does something stupid, they say god told them to do it.

I wasn't home. The glass must have exploded from the heat--the bottom was still intact, though. I'm not sure how the fire started--there were plastic items on the table that burned--my son said the flames were almost up to the cieling fan. I have seen candles go haywire when they are near the bottom. The flame starts jumping around!

I've heard bad stories about gel candles--this was not a gel candle but, it was a pricey one from bath and body.
