I love teenagers today. They are so smart, witty and I think very concerned about very important issues. The best part of being a parent is when you not only love your teenage children, but realize how much you LIKE them as people. One of the best rewards as a parent and I thank God every day I had 3 beautiful children to raise. What a blessing to even be able to have a child. Thank you Jehovah for that privilege!

Did anyone see or do a random act of kindness today?
by okie46 intoday while unloading my groceries, i witnessed a random act of kindness... someone in a ford explorer was waiting for a car to leave a parking spot so they could pull in there, they had been waiting for several minutes when finally the car in that spot backed out and left.
before the person in the ford explorer could pull into the spot, a lady in a ford taurus pulled on into that parking space.
the person in the ford explorer who had been patiently waiting, just sat there, they didn't honk or flip the person off, then the lady in the ford taurus realized that the other vehicle had been waiting for that spot and backed out to find another spot, letting the guy who had been waiting have his spot.

I would remarry my first husband Tim in a heartbeat, I regret what happened with us and if we had gone to a "marriage counselor" we would probably still be together celebrating 30 years of marriage in December. He was my first love, I was 14 when we met and I miss him terribly.

Worst Thing Youve Done In A Meeting?
by chuckie77 inwhats the worst thing youve done during a meeting?
years ago, when i was a bit more wicked/naughty/younger than i am now, i thought i would take some drugs just prior to the meeting to see if it would make things any more interesting.
it didnt, but at least i enjoyed the kingdom melodies tapping my foot to the beat and bopping my head!!

One time when my oldest son was a baby and still in diapers, he had a bm and so I took him to the bathroom to change his diaper.... not realizing that poo was dropping on the floor leaving a trail all the way to the bathroom. Yuck!! I didn't realize it until I came back and my ex, his Daddy told me, of course he was a Janitor, so he did the cleanup. I was mortified. We were all still very young then so of course our friends who also all had babies thought it was hilarious.

Have you made what you consider to be life-long friends here?
by Crumpet in.
now that you have attended apostafests and gotten to know people over the phone or by email here at jwd do you feel you have made life long friends;you know the kind you'd expect to come to your wedding or to be there at your funeral - would drop in on for coffee if you ever happened to be in their part of the world?.
or is it primarily just a forum of faceless entities who you appreciate the comments and support of online but don't necessarily feel an affection for or an urge to meet or further cement that friendship?

RE from Luna2 to Crumpet: "Put on your jammies, turn out ALL the lights, get on yer knees and say a prayer to Jehoober,".......... Luna2 don't think it is good idea for Crumpet to get on her knees.... might lead to the dreaded Doggy position and then all hell would break loose!!!!!

"Touch of Grey" by Grateful Dead Must be getting early, clock are running late. Paint my love a morning sky, it's all cold. Dawn is breaking everywhere, light a candle, curse the glare Draw the curtains I don't care, but it's alright I will get by, I will get by, I will get by, I will survive. I see you've got your list out, say your piece and kiss off. Guess I get the jist of it, but it's alright Oh well anyway, sorry that you feel that way. Every silver linings got a touch of grey I will get by, I will get by, I will get by, I will survive. It's a lesson to me, the ablers and the beggars and the theives The abc's we all think of, try to win a little love. I know the rent is in arrears, the dog has not been fed in years It's even worse than it appears, but it's alright Cow is giving kerosene, kid can't read at seventeen The words he knows are all obscene, but it's alright I will get by, I will get by, I will get by, I will survive. Shoe is on the hand that fits, that's all there really is to it Whistle through your teeth and spit, but it's alright Oh well a touch of gray, kinda suits you anyway, That's all I had to say, but it's alright I will get by, I will get by, I will get by, I will survive. It's a lesson to me, the devils and the East and the free The abc's we all must face, try to save a little grace.
