Well,
I have bought a few gifts for my friends and one for my secret santa gift recipient friend.
Other than that I havent done much shopping. Its so hard when the kids are with you all the time. Im planning on spending the weekend in Green Bay with Xenawarior and we are going to hit the malls and do some serious shopping before we watch the Packer game on Sunday. Who am I kidding, we will be way to busy gabbing and laughing to get much shopping done, but I am looking forward to it.

"in the truth", you are taught that since we all love one another and are true christians that we would readily die for one another.
would you now?edited by - minimus on 30 november 2002 7:57:12.
I agree with Incense.
If a defenseless child or an elderly person were in need, I would help without hesitation.
I guess its good that the situation hasnt yet come about or I wouldnt be here right now.
some of you may know that my parents were expected for "dinner" on thanksgiving day.
well i really don't think its going to happen now.
i called my dad last night becuase my mother, now visiting my kids in south texas and bringing them here to see me, said they had "stuff to do on thursday".
God Val,
Im so sorry. Thats wrong....
My father disappeared before I was born. I actually finally met him when I turned 18 when I, on a whim, sent a wedding announcement to his mother, who I also didnt know. He wants to be in my life now, but hes a complete stranger to me. I have seen him twice and get cards and letters now and then. He signs them, "Love Dad" and it seems so strange. I have never uttered the word "DAD" to anyone in my life. Anyway, I dont hate him but hes really no more than an acquaintance to me.
I think it is good that you want to be involved with your daughters and you shouldnt be denied this. Especially when they are so young and need to form a relationship with you. They are fortionate that you want to be in their lives. You are their father and have every right to be.

last week at the kingdom hall, my mother was met by an elder who said: "i'm sorry to hear about benext, she found that puzzling then another mournful face who told her they'd help her in any way they could.
the gossip had gotten around that i no longer "went to my meetings like i should.
" i've been inactive for a year and haven't been to a meeting for several months.
Petty,
I know that many here dont believe in the afterlife but I feel exactly the same as you.
I almost hope my JW grandparents are up there right now thinking,"oops! Boy, were we wrong."
my surgery is over and i am home.
the doctor said that she has never seen anybody recover as quickly as i am.
i am sure that all your prayers and well wishes are the reason why i am doing so well.
Im so glad you are feeling better!
Take care & recover well!!!
thank you for the beautiful bouquet of flowers.
the colors are vivid and the decorative basket that they came in is lovely.
thank you for thinking about me.
Robyn,
Take care of yourself hun!

Petty, Double, Outback,
Thank you. I agree that it is sad. I do love them and pity them at the same time. I can only imagine the pain they are feeling by actually believing something so ridiculous. I only talk to them occassionally. They tell my sister how "worried" they are for me and how they "pray" for me, she tells them that "I am worried about them and pray for them." It totally blows their minds. They must believe Im as derranged as they believe Im demonized.
i have already gotten an email from someone stating that their gift arrived safely in the mail.
i thought it would be nice to start a thread where we can post what we got (for those nosey like me who want to know!
) and a thank you.. as for me, i haven't even begun yet!
Awwww,,,,,,,, You lie!!
BTW, Dont you mean,

Can you imagine the implications?
Not that its likely, but if I were to die or be killed in an accident and my family saw a stranger walking around with my facial features or liknessess, that could make for an uncomfortable encounter. Yikes!! Of course I would want to help someone if I could, but I think its something to put some serious thought into, ya know?
