mr. eakins (aka trauma_hound) has stated a number of times that he wishes i would take matters off-board to settle in private email as he has done with others.

my comment about you being a wuss could, would, and should have been taken in a better context by you.

Been there done that!..Believe me...it's not worth it!...Life is to short!...We have enough stress in our lives without stirring up more here!..

Snoozy...who graduated from board fights! Had enough of them....I did want to post this because I know the pain it can cause you and the other person... trying to prove that someone is right and someone is wrong!

Just chalk it up to personal differences....no one will win this fight..you will both just feel bad....

Hi again!..well Hubby had a really bad day today!..He is getting a lot weaker. Can't hardly get up anymore. He is so thin. Wants to sleep all the time.I guess the next step is a hospital bed. Did get him to eat some oatmeal with honey..but it went right through him.

His Mom and my daughter were supposed to come today. My daughter was going to make the 2 hour trip to pick up the JW mother in law..but my daugher has asthma really bad and she started to have trouble breathing on the way. so she had to go back home. They were only going to stay an hour or two..myJW mother in law said she doesn't feel comfortable staying all night here anymore...so my daughter was going to have to make the 2 hour trip back to take her home. I'm glad they didn't come..hubby didn't feel like having company.

So his mom is getting a witness to bring her Tuesday for a while. She could have just waited and came then. She just kept pushing my daughter until she gave in. I will say something about that for sure when she gets here!. I know she wants to see her son..but she is going to have to get her witnesses to help..My daughter just had major surgery a while back and is still recouperating!. The other daughter had her grandaughter and her son so she couldn't make the long trip with the two toddlers!. She is also going to have an MRI Monday. and she has to schedule for a biopsy on a knot on her neck! Plus she works full time.

So dear MIL is just going to have to get someone else to do her bidding!. Especially since I told her she was welcome to stay the night or even a few days.(Through Clentched teeth!) She is the one that feels uncomfortabe. And she should!).She doesn't need to run her grandchildren ragged!. They are going through a lot right now also...

Funny thing is one of the "brothers" from her congregation called after she found out she wasn't coming up. He wanted to know how hubby was. He also wanted to express his concern that only one witness had called on hubby since Sept. He is going to get in touch with the elders here. He said in his congregation they would be over here all the time!....

Isn't it amazing how they try to say that ..all congregations are the same?.....

Course I already knew better...They are a little late for hubby! He really would have appeciated it more before. Now he can't even focus on anything. They neglected to give food at the proper time for a "Brother" in need!...

Snoozy.....

who owns the KH/ asembly halls?

by Curious Mind in

hope someone can enlighten me!!!!.

just curious as to who has legal ownership of the kh/ah.

most kh/ah are built with free labour and the loan for the hall comes from the society, which the cong then repays - hence the question.
