  Noni, awwwww...so sweet. There's nothing in the world sweeter than a kitten. Only 3 cats? The most I ever had at once was 8. I'm down to one now. Have you ever bottle fed any with kitten formula?

  ELDER FINALLY VISITED MY DAD.....

  well, over two weeks after my father nearly died thanks to this bone-head cult, he and mom finally got a visit from one of the elders.

  i had left work early the other day as my mom had asked me to pick a few things up for them.

  so i pull up in their driveway and notice a few people in a car and figured it was the witlesses and sure enough it was.

  Hahahahaha. Too funny and so true! You did good not to throw up. Sorry your dad has been so sick and glad he is home and doing better.

  So that's what the other shoe looks like. Update with my parents

  heading to the apostafest this weekend, we have made a deal with our friends to look after our kids.

  given that they already have 3 children, adding 3 more could be stressful so we thought we would ask my parents if they wanted to take one overnight.

  bobbi mentioned that she hadn't really heard much from my mom and suspected something was up.

  So very sad. I'm sorry, but agree that shunning you and Bobbi is shunning your entire family. I love what Skully said. That may just work, as it not only scripturally based, but taken right from the NWT. They can't argue with that and they can throw it in the elders' faces as a reason NOT to shun you. The ball is in their court now. I wish you guys the strength to get through it.

  If You Were Single, Would You Ever Date A Married or Separated Person?

  by minimus in

  lately, i've seen more than a few unhappy couples go their own way and do their own thing.

  one guy i know regularly dates women only on friday nights but comes home to his wife the rest of the time.

  my impression is she doesn't want to know what he's doing------just as long as he comes home to her.. i know a state senator's wife who has 2 kids and she's miserable with her politician/lawyer husband but in public they look like the perfect couple.

  Hi from a newbie here

  by tere1998 in

  2. friends

  i joined this site about a week ago and have enjoyed reading all the posts and chatter.

  i was raised in the jws, baptized at 17 (didn't know any better) but once i got married and had a baby, i just didn't have enough time to go to all the meetings during the week.

  we got the "shepherding calls" and pretty much were looked down on for not going to all the meetings.

  i just downloaded the photos from my phone (thus the low quality) and really liked this one.

  sometimes the wonder is a breathtaking view, othertimes the wonder is watching others seeing it for the first time.. .
