Yeah, I have to say I'm spending a bit more this year. My husband and I have three kids between us and three grandkids, so it adds up, plus we are going to the East coast for Christmas.

I am sorry you had to go through that, it must have been a nightmare. I was very unhappily married for twenty eight years, so I feel for you, I know the toll it takes on you both mentally and emotionally.
I eventually realized that no God worth worshipping would expect me to live like that, and any religion that would expect it isn't worth belonging to. The fact that they were so wrong about forcing people to stay in bad marriages helped me see it wasn't "the truth" at all. I left him and the Jehovah's Witnesses and didn't look back. I've been very happily married to the love of my life for seventeen years now.
you dont have to be lonely, you really dont.

It takes four JWs to man one literature cart? That's four hours service time being reported, while people surf the internet and the public walks by avoiding eye contact, for every hour that cart sits there. Very efficient if you need your hours, completely useless for preaching "this good news of the kingdom".

Pence:
Charles Darwin never thought of evolution as anything other than a theory. He hoped that someday it would be proven by the fossil record but did not live to see that, nor have we . . . And now that we have recognized evolution as a theory, I would simply and humbly ask, can we teach it as such and can we also consider teaching other theories of the origin of species?" — speaking before Congress, July 11, 2002

Interesting article in the New Yorker.
I think the dems are better off under Trump, as long as he doesn't start a nuclear war.
Pence has strong ties to the Koch brothers, and is a supporter of their agenda, he is very conservative socially, as governor of Indiana he supported a law that would make it legal for businesses to discriminate against gays.

From enemies to friends: Did it really happen?
by StephaneLaliberte inyesterday, they showed the story “from enemies to friends” at the kingdom hall.
my mother in law told me about it as she was touched by the story.
so then, later in the evening, i searched for the video and found it in the january 1st 2017 broadcast.
