Make up a story, because you can read a JW's mind

lets say that we could read the mind of every jw at the hall, and we could know what they believe in and what they don't believe in, and what secrets they keep, i'm sure we would be very surprised that they all aren't as pure as they claim to be.. brother x prepares his watchtower at the last minute, underlining here and there to look good, and prepares one or two answers just to look good when he comments at the watchtower study.. during the meeting, he is day dreaming, and thinking of the afternoon football game he will watch on tv.

he then remembers that he must buy a case of beer after leaving the hall.

he also remembers the nice women he saw at the bar last night.

thankyou so much for all the good wishes you have sent us in the last few days, trev has been printing up the emails, pms and threads, and bringing the cards to show me every day, and i get a lift every time i see him coming in with more of your lovely messages to read.. it's been a tough time for both of us, and it won't get any easier.

i am dreading chemo, to be honest, but i have to bear it, as i would anything that gives me hope.

but that's for monday, and i am going to enjoy myself as much as i can this weekend.

GoingGoingGone

So glad you got to come home and spend the weekend with your hubby!!

Enjoy every second of your weekend together. Monday will come, but it's not here now!! And when it is, we are all here pulling for you to get through the chemo with a minimum of problems and a maximum of benefit.

Love and hugs to you both.

My wife has finally seen the light.

for 18 months i have been at loggerheads with my wife over the wts.

she has been the perfect watchtower slave even declaring that she'll never leave the truth.

i decided not to interfere in her life, attacking the society, and the idiots in the hall, but recently things have changed for the best.

GoingGoingGone

I'm so happy for you!! For both of you!!! That's such great news!!!!

I'm still waiting for my husband. Don't know if it will ever happen, but this place helps me keep my own sanity. And I'll be sure to let you all know if he ever comes out!

My self-worth does not actually depend on another poster's opinion of me.

by Frannie Banannie in

jw
friends

i've been trashed and bullied by one poster for posting info off the internet that i was offering to someone in need of hope.

i began a thread on the subject of whether it is right or wrong to offer hope to someone in desperate circumstances in order that the poster could see that theirs wasn't the only opinion of any value.

while most who responded were in agreement with the validity of being encouraging and offering hopeful info that can be looked into or not, it's the viewer's choice, that poster has continued his bullying, stating that i'm mentally, literally incompetent, basically stupid and irresponsible, though i'm so incompetent that i shouldn't be actually held accountable for my well-meant ignorance.

GoingGoingGone

Just wanted to add my two cents and say that I think you're a sweetie, Frannie!! I am all for offering hope to people, no matter what their situation is. We are all grown-ups, we can take advice or not... Why keep something potentially good to yourself??

SMOOCH!! I love people with a big heart!

Wooden chopping board?????????

by vitty in

jw
friends

i know its a strange question and i didnt know which category to put it under but here goes........... i bought one about 2 years ago.

its about 1-1/2 thick................but i dont know how to get some stubborn stains off it.

its got yellow and orange ones at the moment (from a curry we had last night)............ive scrubbed it but to no avail.

GoingGoingGone

I have a spray bottle with bleach and water that I use to spray down my wooden cutting boards after I wash them. None of the boards have stains on them, but I do it mostly to make sure all the germs are gone.

The only thing I've noticed is that the wood seems to dry out faster than I'd like. I'm not sure if it's because of the bleach or not, but I'm still spraying!

i'm trying to talk my brother into going....just so i'm not the only slacker there.

GoingGoingGone

I'm going. I think I'd be more obvious if I stay away than if I go.

But I'm going to tell my husband that I want to leave immediately afterwords. No stupid chit chat before either. I'm not in the mood for love bombing.

Q for doctors out there?

by hamsterbait in

since rheumatoid arthritis is an auto immune disease, why don't people with this problem get immuno suppressors, like people who have had transplants?

wouldn't this stop your body attacking its own cartilage?.

i had a flare up today, and i can barely sit upright at the 'puter.. what triggers these sudden stiffenings?.

GoingGoingGone

I'm not a doctor, but I have several autoimmune disorders. I'm on a very low dose of immuno supressors.

The reason you can't simply use immuno suppressors like transplant patients do is because those drugs have many serious side effects. Including, but not limited to, greater risk of cancer, osteoporosis, liver damage, etc. For transplant patients, the benefits outweigh the risks. For people suffering from auto immune disorders, though, doctors usually find the risks greater than the potential benefits.
