there is one christmas carol that has always baffled me.
what in the world do leaping lords, french hens, swimming swans, and especially the partridge who won't come out of the pear tree have to do with christmas?.
this week, i found out.

since the begining of this religion, how many are out, past and current, verse the 7+ million that are in?.
Hello and welcome. Surely you must have more than just the 'one' question?

it was always stressed that the five weekly meetings were like the fingers on your hand.
each one was just as important as the next.
which of the meetings were the most boring,bothersome and difficult to listen to?
Yep, I hated Thursday meetings.

hey everyone,.
so it's been over a year and this saturday i'm going to the hall.
can you help to prep me for what sort of emotions and feelings might come rushing in?
Most importantly, protect yourself, emotionally that is. You might meet some negative responses which could hurt and unsettle you because of course it's a cult and hence their attitudes aren't always kindly. It must already have affected you that you didn't get an invitation?

i just saw this done on a tv show and was intrigued by the answers (almost unanimously yes).
"yes, but my husband is about to retire so i'm going to have to start telling him the truth!".
"ohhh, yes - if my husband knew the truth he'd need medication!".
Currently hubby likes me to handle our joint funds, which I hate doing but if it makes him happy, then ok. We have a standing joke, if I buy clothing or something for me I round down ... Then we play guessing games as to my discrepancies. Of course if it's something for him, I round up! I tell him it is all in the Women's Rule Book which is like law, written in blood. He asks to view this book but I have to tell him it is highly secret and reading it could mean I have to murder him with poisoned mushrooms lol.

so what are your plans for christmas.. this year i am not spending it with my entire family.
some of them are doing their own thing/have their own plans, which i don't mind as sometimes those paticular family members can be straining.. so it will be spent with my mum, brother, father, some family friends and a couple of "strays" (people that don't have family to spend christmas with so we invite them over).
there will be a light breakfast shared and gifts opened in the morning.. i'm cooking up a feast:.
Sending hugs to those of you who will be on your own at Christmas.
