  Mr. California is a lucky man to have such longstanding friendships. I hope he realizes that.

  just wanna know.

  i'm doing the fade but i reckon my big mouth could get me dfd.

  i know plenty who've been dfd for fornication/adultery, but never met one dfd for speaking the truth.

  if they ever get around to DFing me, it'll have to be for apostacy - I haven't done anything else that would earn me so much as a private reproof LOL. However, I'm not making it easy for them to catch up with me - I don't answer the phone, and my phone doesn't receive text messages. I don't think they even have my current email address.

  Creative Revenge

  i love this topic.... stole it from a female talk radio host dr. sonia freeman in the chicago area decades ago.

  think and post a creative (not damaging, violent, or illegal) action that would piss off those who shun us.

  here is an example: many years ago when my hubby was still an elder he collected the mail for the kh.

  I would kind of enjoy sneaking over to the hall sometime when no one else is there and hiding a little Sparlock figurine in the potted plant up on the platform. It would be even more fun if I could leave a hidden camera to record when it was finally discovered.

  i can't believe it, but i missed my first memorial!!!.

  i wasn't sure what was going to happen, until it was past the time to get ready and leave.

  i left it up to my husband, and he made no effort to get ready and go.

  Curious About My Disfellowshipping.

  i recently read an interesting thread (is there a 'third' way to leave?

  ) that talked about fading instead of being df'd or da'd.

  i myself had planned to fade, but was df'd instead.

  I'd be curious too, if I were in your position. I don't know if they'd tell you if you called and asked, but it's worth a shot I guess. I assume I've not been disfellowshipped - but I don't know if I would ever find out if they did. I don't have family in nearby, and most of the local dubs already shun me anyway.
