my hubby and i were discussing this point the other day and having a giggle as we remembered the stress it caused some elders.. we got to thinking that there must have been some really good parties going on that we were not invited to because we never witnessed anything shocking or resembling debauchery.
we began to feel left out because the elders often did talks warning us about the dangers associated with 'large' gatherings, and they sounded like much more fun than the ones we had been too.. i mean, we went to parties where the elder organised bible characters celebrity heads, question and answer games based on bible events, no alcohol, and finishing up by 10pm.......(then we would go back to my place and have a good time).
we were invited to a 'large' group that met in someones house every sunday afternoon for 'kingdom melodies" sing-a-longs, but that was one large gathering we were never tempted to go to.. the elders' talks indicated that some people were having more fun than us.
Its ok bliss
I was just stirring you both....
the doctor said it is alright to drink one or two glasses of wine a week....
I must admit, im a pretty scary person to meet for the first time.. i dont blame you for thinking things could get out of control. especially if rick was there. he would be asking everyone to have a 3some with him.
LOL
talk soon
hey guys.............it's just a joke.
no offence ok.. .
an australian man was having coffee & croissants with butter & jam in.
Rick and I both had a great laugh over that one bliss
good to see you back beck
i have not seen any posts by beck melbourne lately.
i pm'd her about two weeks ago, with no response yet.

I tried calling her the other day on her mobile to let her know my good news about the baby, but I didnt get a response..
I must try her again..

Good thread bliss...
I remember a camping trip where everyone got drunk.. My sister and I got a "guilty conscience" and left.. Mind you, there was an elder there and his kids where the drunkest.....
The tamworth crowd where always getting in trouble for rowdy parties... gossip flew around the ciruit when one of the elders sons was supposed to do a part on an assembly and then got kicked off because of one of the parties..
makes me laugh now but back then I felt shock that a good christian could do that... amzaing now how times change..
first thing i did when i got with rick was get drunk cause i was always the good girl and never drank too much before.. much different now.

on my way to meet with him, i noticed a "now hiring" sign in a window.
Jes, that is great news..
Congratulations
It is always easier to find work when you are employed.. It means you are "more employable"... dont give up... this is a stepping stone.

i know that many of you gave me the advice to wait until i'm done with school, but what can i say, i'm stubborn .
please share your pre-pregnancy and pregnancy tips that either made things smoother or things you wish you has done to make things easier.
i also want opinions on such things as epidurals, circumcision, nutrition, breast-feeding, money saving tips, etc.
Stinky, congrats on your decision...
I have just found out I am pregnant... we can be pregnant together!!

I am reading all replies with relish and laughter...
