  Who are you looking for?

  do you find yourself scanning the posts of new ones here hoping in the back of your mind that it's a friend or relative who has finally "seen the light"?.

  there are several people i am always watching for.... my best friend from high school, the only friend i was allowed to have since she was the only girl my age in the kh.

  and my brothers... extremely bright and intelligent guys, but very wrapped up in gaining my fathers and the congregations approval.

  Anyone I used to know would do really.
  
  If family ever posted here I think I would have a heart attack from the shock.

  Can you prepare solid meals?

  can you prepare interesting solid meals or do you not have the flare for it and instead prefer to live on take aways, restaurant meals or simple casual snack meals at home?

  i find it hard to concentrate on cooking though i always want to do it and i have actually put together some interesting recipes several times.

  there is a strange resistance blocking me.

  I love to cook!
  I've mastered the skill of being broke and having 6 random ingredients to work with.
  
  I just hate to clean up.

  Badges for Conventions

  by ThomasCovenant in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  each year name badges are handed out at the kingdom halls for those attending the upcoming district convention.

  i have always refused to wear one but this was not a major issue as i would say only about 50% wore them anyway.

  however i noticed that as the years went by more and more 'brothers' were wearing them including during the lunch break in the city centre concerned.

  I used to *lose* mne after the first morning session.
  Hhmm where ever could that have gone?
  
  Or I would put it on my waist, used to drive attendants nuts.
  
  I lost count how many times they would stare at my waist and ask why I didn't have it pinned to my lapel. Well, because chicks don't have lapels and I'm tired of men "reading my badge" which is as we all know, code for "nice rack"

  .

  okay, i woke up this morning because i had really bad pain in my left leg ( i jumped out of bed) it was like a cramp but a hundred times worse, i could not even stretch my leg or touch it because it hurt like hell, this was at five am it is now 10 am and it still hurts, i can't even really walk (i'm at work, so i won't have to) this is the fourth time this has happened the pain stays for three to four days and then goes away, any ideas on what it could be and how to make the pain better?.

  Is the pain in the back of your lower leg?
  
  If it is, to make it feel better when you're sitting at your desk with your knee bent, try having your toes pointed towards the floor instead of keeping the foot flat. If it is a muscle spasm this shortens gastroc and soleus (calf muscles) and will help the muscle recover. You most likely overstretched it hopping out of bed and it went into spasm in an effort to protect itself.
  
  This is (obviously lol) just my opinion, I would still phone my doc and run it by them

  Were YOU Depressed When You Were A Witness?

  by minimus in

  2. friends

  i've seen soooo many witnesses taking meds or alcohol because of unhappiness and depression.

  i know of one woman who regularly gos to her shrink and is the most depressed person that i know of.

  personally, i believe it's because a jw can never do enough to satisfy god or the elders....what do you think?
