  I blew off a 25 min. service meeting part tonite

  by Leander in

  i told the presiding overseer that i'd probably be late getting home from work.

  but i actually spent my time driving around and enjoying the spring weather.. in other news i'll be going in for a job interview tomorrow within the company.

  i'm really hoping i land this job, because as soon as i can secure a new position (my old one is being phased out) i'll be exiting the stage of the jw comedy of errors.. .

  over a week ago i shared that my husband was stepping down as an elder last wednesday.. well, for all those inquiring minds that want to know, my husband's efforts were a total bust.

  first he talked to one elder who adamantly refused to accept his resignation.

  he encouraged and demanded that he stay.

  my best friend is a jw but she can't do anything outside of school with me.

  it's really hard cuz she gets jealous when i do things with our other friends outside of school.

  we invite her but she's never allowed to go.

  Return visits

  by sleepy in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  man i used to hate doing return visits.. at one time i worked with a lot of pioneers and they always did a load of return visits.. but most people they called on were either elderly and liked someone to talk to or people who may have been polite , or took the mags on the doors , but had no real interest.. i used to hate the way poeple would say to call back on the "intrested ones" as nearly no one you call on is interested in being a witness.. yet most witneeses cant see this.any sign of a conversation or just looking at the mags and every thinks they are interested.. so most of these pioneers just ended up irratating people who were just being polite, by repeatedly calling on them.. sometimes after a few weeks , the person would just disappear , you knew they were hinding behind the door or something.. so i hardly ever had return visits as i found i could quickly tell whether someone is being polite or had a real interest in tallking, although i kept some calls going just so i could count them.. succsessful pioneers are just the ones who cant read the signs of disinterest easily , and just wear someone down so much that they give in to their preaching.

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i read the post where princess sent mr. and mrs. ozzie goodies to enjoy.. now that is a great idea.

  i confess, i was working on my christmas cards when i broke my foot, and with the baby i just didn't get to send any out this year.

  so yes i'm feeling a bit guilty.. soooo perhaps we could start a gift circle?
