does anyone have a copy of the boe letter directing publishers to not go into apartment complexes and/or condominium complexes with no soliciting signs?
i ask because yesterday and buttheaded jw (that obviously had no idea who i am or my past) was knocking on doors in our condo complex.
he would have had to drive past a sign which clearly states "no solicitation or material distribution.".

Laws about trespassing and solicitation on private property vary by municipality, but there's a letter template if you need one. You'll have to incorporate your own legal requirements.
it's been at least a couple years since i've posted anything on here, and much longer than that since when i was active.

christmas means nothing to me.
i have no abiding, cosy, childhood memories of it.. i don't buy presents or cards....i have to be reminded.. i feel a bit weird.
people are celebrating and saying: 'i'm feeling christmassy.'.
It's ok to feel and do what you do now.
If you wanted to, you could make up your own little traditions.
It's solstice and the end of the year--time to beat the long nights by curling up with a warm drink and some pretty lights or candles. Or a fireplace. There are seasonal foods--a special treat only at this time of year.
You could use your day off to treat yourself to a nice meal, nature walk or movie.
And remind yourself it's another year of freedom for you.
