Well, I’m up to Sharing this, now.
A few weeks ago, we lost our Hop-Along. (That is a bitter story)We both doted on him. He was a beautiful three legged kitty. It was those three legs that did him in. He could run fast enough.
We have two new kittens. A long hair tuxedo kitty, and, his bro, a tabby, tailless short hair.
They are rescues. Born under a bridge.
Bob, (no tail) thinks all is well. The black and white is more feral. And, glares a lot. But he does not live inside the recliner anymore. They are in the cat tree!I have misgivings. This was not my choice. But, I will have a grand time with this new adventure.
I had to move my Zoom room upstairs. My den is a big ol cat house.
I can just hear our brother say, “No, I don’t know about your cat-during the GT.- Show previous comments 11 more

Your little tabby looks like my cat Bea she is a female we call her " Miss Mouse" because she is grey and loves her
fake mice she plays with. Have to say I am a cat lover.....I am sorry you lost the three legged kitty

Sisters, I don’t know about you, but, I’m 76 and have nice heels for the meetings. I put on a pair the other day, and, I don’t know. My days of heels may just be gone. I’ve been sort of careful, because I knew I was pushing it anyway.
If this is so, it will be a whole new world for me, when and if, we get back to the hall.
In the meantime, um, shhhh. Barefoot is just wonderful. At the hall, if I could, I’d be barefoot. (I do have shoes right next to me. For the meeting. But...)
There’s a gal, Rihanna Geddings, a singer. She was on stage, “dressed to the nines”, and, barefoot. My kind of dressing up. Country and western singer, and, sort of blues.
Barefoot Indians. My good friend said something derogatory about such. That is fine. If I have a choice, it will always be barefoot!- Show previous comments 4 more

That may happen to me. I’m trying to find a comfortable pair of shoes ,(online) so if we ever get back to the hall, I can be halfway comfortable. (And not in my nice heels, with my walking stick, so I don’t fall down)
In reality, we lived rural as kids, and, would spend the summer pretty well bare foot. (As I wrote this, a memory flashed in my mind. Me, probably 5 or 6. A yellow two piece bathing suit, with blue fishes in the front. And, I’m in awful trouble. I tossed the top!)
-
I've been a tomboy most of my life! Me and my feet have not liked shoes! I would be very well dressed with a nice pair of flats on! Didn't have to worry about my heels getting stuck in the cracks! I am now 67, in a few weeks 68 and I still feel the same way about heels for me! Now, I have the perfect excuse, homebound, where would I wear them? I've always admired women in heels! I had flat feet and sometimes unbalanced so I needed to be as close to the ground as possible!! lol!

As I read the account of the new COBE among us, and my statement, “Jehovah knows best”.
Long ago, when we had the CO, and the DO, and, rarely they would visit our congregation, well, there they were. And, we were meeting for service. Me, shaking in my boots, thinks, if I go alone, I will get put in a car with one of them. My smart solution, ask someone to go with you, that day. Two of us. I relax, and off I go.
Well, I got taken care of, good and proper. Me and my partner were assigned in a car group with, yep, the DO, and the CO!
I thought different in those days. Now I take the CO’s wife on calls with me. (Um, used too)We have a small congregation, and, it is our privilege to get to work with the CO, his wife, and, elders on a regular basis.
But, I still laugh at how Jehovah showed me who was in charge, long ago.
I love our little congregation. Jehovah has absolutely been there for us. It’s a marvel when you see it with your own eyes!-
I was working with our CO's wife one blustery Spring day.
But that turned out to be the least of my worries.
It was really REALLY windy, but not cold.
So I hadn't bothered to wear a coat.
Hard to hold down your skirt while trying to share a Scripture
at the door. My presentation was...interesting.
I was so nervous about my skirt flying up in my face
that I forgot who I was working with.
Traded one nervousness for another.
Oh well, we had a wonderful day in service
and I learned to always wear a coat on really windy days.

Our visiting CO and his wife were from San Diego. Very laid back and mellow. Young--early 40s. A sister was driving and we had alot of lake call properties. The sister asked the group meeting for coffee break who would like to go with her on her 'dam' call.😀 not damn call. When another sister quickly tried to explain the co 's wife smiled and calmly said 'I just figured she knew them better than we do."
🙃😂🤩

Okay, got my program printed out. Pens, water, bible at the ready. Music starts in ten minutes!
I’m off to the assembly! -
The winter birds are leaving. Juncos and purple finches. And, well, birds, I call for now, sparrows.
I have an area where we feed birds. I cannot tell you how many times during the day, I stop, watch them, and, thank Jehovah for those little creatures.
I know they know me. A few years ago, in a December, I went up, and sat there, with birdseed in my hands. Yes, here they came. Mostly little sparrows. Juncos, a little snobbish.
But, those dear little sparrows ate out of my hand.
Someday..Meanwhile, um, blue jays, and, some other variety of, yes, blue jays.
And some new little sparrows, with little white streaks on their heads. This year, I got a really special treat. Purple finches. A flock of them!-
How wonderful, Sister Bea!
Our Juncos are strictly ground feeders, which may account for why
they did not eat up off the ground from your hand.

Rick use to have a blue front amazon who had quite a vocabulary. The bird did not like me and I did not like him. The bird keeper who sold him to Rick years again in 2000 said most birds usually only like one person either male or female. He said he was all this bird knew so he imagined he would continue to prefer men. Which he did. I feel down a huge flight of stairs when we moved into a new house. I could not get up and there was no phone close be. I would scream and cry and the bird would mimic me. I would scream shut up and he would scream shut up. Gosh I hated that bird. Then one day he started singing 'We are Je-ho- vah's witnesses, we sing out fearlessly". My friend who was a pioneer said 'Girl, we've even got the animals praising God's name"! After that I thought about how smart these creatures are that Jehovah has given us!

Another theocratic milepost for our little congregation. This week end, the 24th, is our first online circuit assembly. Yes, it’s online, but we have been encouraged to sit down, and enjoy it as we would have, sans this virus. On the 24th!
What a joy. To be at the assembly, in spirit with our dear brothers and sisters. Yet, in the comfort of our own home.
Six months ago, I would have thought my mental senses had left me, if I imagined such.
And, yet...Jehovah has almost reached, literally into our homes. I know. I know. But, for some of us, it can be a hard concept. At times.
For some of us, it is a gift of unmeasurable value.
I remember the feeling when a brother first gave that prayer, yes, on Zoom, but in my own home. I was able to say, “amen”, to a prayer, by a brother, comfortably, in my home.
For me, nothing short of a miracle!-
Um, not me! I sing terrible, but I love to. I’m one of those who just can’t stand still. Lr, for that matter, sit still. It’s like when I’m in my car, going through beautiful scenery, singing to Jehovah!
Plus, I’m using headphones, so as to not disrupt my husbands, day, or evening. I cannot fathom what he would think, me, singing away, totally enjoying myself, and, what is coming out of my mouth?
Let’s say, I do sing at the hall, I find someone who can sing, and, try to harmonize. Quietly, but, not in my heart!
Other then that, my singing is between me and Jehovah ! -
https://www.lifehack.org/288228/11-amazing-benefits-singing-you-may-not-know
Quote1. Singing releases endorphions and oxytocin
Singing in a group harmony is even more beneficial. So sing away or singalong with the JW vocal song. Or any silly ditty. It will do you a lot of good.

I’m having trouble adjusting to the way I study and comment. I used to write the scriptures down in the margin of the WT. And, I used my digital copy, to be able to see something but all that writing on the WT. I’m questioning that. I need a clean copy of that WT, because I’m not able to use the iPad for myself.
The midweek meeting. I was surprised how much I am used of bringing things up on the iPad, to, even jiggle my thought pattern. I sat there last week, “Where’s my paper workbook”, and, where’s my book on Jesus life? And, I have to be able to add to the discussion on Bible gems. Without that digital bible in my hands.
I have my little phone, but, I need to get my act together.
The conductor asked how many of us still wanted to be a part of the school. A question that I have to give thought to. Very few households have two sisters in it, so, how does that go about?
Plus my study area has been decimated. It was upstairs, in our unfinished bedroom, which is gettin finished now. It is a construction zone.
It’s nice because I do have someplace else to nest in, our, well, my den. It’s warm and comfortable, but, no view.
I am a creature of habit, and, I figure just when I get this all figured out, and, get comfortable, things will change again. New adjustments.
In reality, just for the theocratic activities to take place that are, and, in my home! To me, it is a bit of a miracle.
I have my routine, and now, the rest of the congregation is almost a guest in my home. Who would have thought?- Show previous comments 1 more

I too have an unbelieving husband. I find that the most challenging. The past few meetings, I'm having to go out into our trailer, so I don't disturb him. We aren't set up in our home for this, but that's okay! If It's too cold out and I have to, I just go into our bedroom, turn off my video, and participate that way. The main thing is I'm "there".
Miss Bea - I'm like that too to a degree. I just print them off and then I can still write my thoughts/comments.
These are incredible times, aren't they? We are cared for SO well!

I'm quite resistant to change as regard anything connected to IT. But once I tried to figure it out myself, I've no problem going along with the processes.
When I first started going for the Zoom meeting, the 1st meeting was a wash out. I couldn't hear anything. So I missed the Midweek meeting. Then the next meeting, I took 1/2 hour to find my way into the meeting place. My CBOE who I suspect is a System Analyst said that it was very easy. It was quite easy once one is familiar with the process. Not a old fogey like me.
The last weekend meeting was not better. I somehow pressed a button and the audio went off. So I had to contend with just the public talk. I then went poking around the internet and found someone posting all the Watchtower and MWM meeting answers on Facebook. I'm a sucker for things like that.
So let me see what other snafus is going to crop up in the near future.
I really enjoyed having a table to write notes while listening to the Zoom talks. Note taking has been ingrained in me after the decades in the truth. I see in the video gallery that the almost all didn't take any notes during the meeting. A pity. I'm going to share the notes with an Indonesian IT student I just met at a Mall. He dropped his wallet containing all his essential cards and quite a big sum of money. That's a long story. Never one to resist taking the long arduous journey to locate the owner. In the end, I found a young friend to talk with and go shopping in the Mall. He didn't find it awkward having an old woman accompanying him on his rounds. I find that so refreshing in a young person. We make quite a pair. Two sloppy persons wandering around the aisles. MCO tales.
Long winded as usual.

We are leeching acorn flour. (It’s in the kitchen sink, in a big strainer, lined with cloth, and the faucet is dripping. I stir it regularly) In the old days, it was leeched with a creek. And, this is only tanoak acorns. We ground up the acorns. Well, sorry, my husband did. . So, in 12-24 hours, we can make acorn soup. The variation is we want it to taste, “as sweet as water”.
That soup only takes a little to be satisfied. Old Indians used to eat it when they were sick. To help them get well.I say, at this point and time, I’m lining up my remedies. And, this is one of them!

We have to go to town today. I’m putting oil of oregano on my fingers. That smell will stop me from any hands on the face, pronto. (Like rubbing peppers in my eyes!)
Will cleanse hands, repeatedly,After we get business taken care of, we will hunker down, here at the house. And not go out in the public unless we have to.
And, of course, follow the advice from Jehovah’s organization.Also, I’m taking my oil of oregano. It may not help, but, any virus that visits me, will be, at least, uncomfortable.!
And, lunch? A protein drink.
I’m not in the mood for someone else to prepare my food. -
What has happened? Did my iPad have a nervous breakdown? This is so stressful, I just leave. Can’t make sense of either this new layout, or my iPad hates me!
-
This just happened. I feed birds. And for weeks, I’ve had one Towhee feed with the juncos, sparrows, and blue jays.
Yesterday, my little towhee hit our window, and broke his little neck. I took care of him. Went into a hot fire.
Today, I was looking up at the birds, praying. This world is so full of mourning, how long can we take it, please Jehovah...He came another Towhee. As I was praying. I have never seen two of them before. Just the one.
Tears...

Sorry. It’s been a rough week. The grandson of one of my dearest friends died last week. He wasn’t a Witness, but he lived at her home where we meet for service on Wednesday, and have lunch. He joined us. His Gram said the midweek meeting was part of his rehab. He came to that meeting. He did not have to be a part of our family. But, he was. And we loved him. Then, Sunday, an elder and his wife lost a daughter to death.
It has about been too much. We just have to keep on keeping on.
It ha been hard, with deaths, and then my little bird broke his neck. He died in my hand.
I sick of death. It is such an enemy.
Plus other major things have went on. I’ve talked to the brothers. I just feel sick and tired. And, I will get up in the morning, cook for our group, drive the 45 minutes, just to get to the hall, come back to where our calls are, then go back to where the hall is, and, have our lunch. A dear sister is hosting us, until things settle down where we normally meet.
I was almost in tears, I know, that poor little bird. Knowing I was going to miss him...pushed me over, it did.
You dear friends put up with a lot.
(I’ve been in town all day. Just got home)
(I fully realize that bird showing up when it did, was, yes, that bird, showing up, when I did)
But, I also realize Jehovah gives us every good thing. And, that is where I shall leave it.-

I lost my brother in law last weekend. The husband of my husband's younger sister. He was only 61. A very loving couple though not in the truth. Chai Jyy called him, the best husband there is. He was a diabetic on dialysis. He had a boil on his thigh, had it operated successfully but the bacteria travelled to his heart. So his organs started failing one by one. The doctors couldn't do dialysis because he was too weak. His heartbeat was getting worse. His lungs were filling up with water.
We really must stop eating all these unhealthy foods that are slowly killing us : sugar, processed food, fried food, saturated fats etc.
Our kidneys for example work so hard to filter out all the wastes from our bodies. I read recently it also produces hormones. Yet we sabotage our kidneys by drinking soft carbonated drinks. It really harms our invaluable kidneys. If only we try to find out what our wonderful body is doing to keep us alive and healthy.
-
Oh my goodness. I’m so very sorry. This system seems to be roaring, to its end. But, we stay where we belong, and, we will be okay.
I totally agree about what we eat. I try to eat simple foods. Succeed most of the time. We don’t need all that junk this system is promoting. Jehovah gave us simple foods.
Diabetes is insidious, once it gets going in a bad way. Horrible to go through.
Take care, my sister, and, I thank you for your kind thoughts. ❤️❤️❤️

Now I remember why I came here from my bible reading! After many years in the truth, how many times have we read the Bible. And I made a point to read it some years ago, in a year.
Well, as I started my weeks bible reading and research, it dawned on me, this is the first time I am reading some scriptures, since our bible was released at that annual meeting. What a treat. Refreshing! -
Snippets of my life.
I saw this goofy ad on tv. (I thought) A thingy to shave off ladies sideburns. Sideburn, you say. On me? Off I go to the mirror. Yep. Longer then my husbands. (I accused him of shaving them, his) My hair is pretty well white. And, , my, “sideburns”, are black. I kid you not. And, no, I refuse to touch them! (Actually I have a ring of baby hair that is black, all around my face. The doctors have a name for it)
Then, my husband changed the lights in the washroom. He told me to go check. I told him I may sit up a study-station in it. Beautiful white light.
Then...as I am getting birdseed out of the bin, the youngest dog, a big, ol huge pup. He touched my mouth, (closed, thankfully) with his nose. And I bonked my head. Only once!
I promptly came in and, um, washed where that nose had been.-
I might try face planing, as it is a type of exfoliation. Wiki: "From childhood onward, regardless of gender, vellus hair covers almost the entire area of the human body. Exceptions include the lips; the backs of the ears; the palms of hands; the soles of the feet; certain external genital areas; the navel; and scar tissue." Ah, I see Sis Vernalee is already doing a bit of face planing. A sister I know plucks her chin.
Nice dog story.
-
I’m heading upstairs. Having just looked at a couple of wonderful houseplants, I look up through the window, seeing some of the colored glass I so enjoy.
I think, Jehovah knows what I love.Then I look down at what I’m holding. The materials I need to do my theocratic activities for the week.
A moment in time...
-
Why is it that when I make the bed, or, worse yet, change sheets, my cat thinks it’s, “party time”?
It so bad I have to scheme on how to, um, negate the situation.
(wrap her up in the sheets I just took off the bed, or, put her out on the deck!)Sometimes I try to sneak upstairs...she has very good hearing. She’s in her senior years, so, I’m trying to appreciate her aggravations more!

Both of mine do the same. I have had to put them out of the room and close the door. Pepper especially doesn't like it as he 'screams' and tries to run up the curtain on the french doors. Also put him in the bathroom and closed the door. LOL But Tipper just glares at me and 'dares' me to move him.
-
I have done something so simple, yet, it is almost bringing me joy. I look up, and, when possible, write the scriptures in the WT margin. I started using my trusty, marked in, and, much loved Reference Bible. Oh, I know the value of our updated bible, but this one has all kinds of notes. Written by a long ago friend, me!
I say that because they might as well been written by a stranger, and yet... Wouldn’t it be wonderful if our storehouse of theocratic knowledge we’ve gotten throughout the years, if we got all that back in our memory banks? So, we are aware of them.-
I know. I use our new one, too. The little one at this point. I see wording in the reference bible, and think...hmmm, “did donkey replace ass”. Yep. And for some of the cited scriptures that are pretty long. I have my choice, see what the reference bible says, or our new one. The heading thing, or what is stated in the new bible.
-
I use Reference Bible for deeper study.
Compare for example middle column in both Bibles with scriptural references (cross type references)
Study Bible includes only the most important ones but the Reference Bible is larger in scope allowing deeper study.
Point is Reference Bible and Study Bible sit on my desk right now ...using both enhances our understanding of subject.

I’ve had a rude awakening. Pain. My back. I’m hoping it’s not permanent. The constant pain puts me aside. Sort of pre-occupied. That being said, I know there are ones out there that have no choice but to deal with this particular thorn.
I shall remember you in my prayers.
Nothing like getting slapped along side the head to develop empathy!

Doctor said it’s classic. I have about four more weeks to suffer with this. She’s going to prescribe a muscle relaxer, and a series of appointments with a chiropractor. (One used by the friends, and highly spoken of.). I can suffer through it.at my age, I worry I will be like this for the rest of my days in this system.
Cheryl. Hard to think about. Each unexpected move is scary. And, painful. I was afraid of a compression fracture. But, my abdomen did not fill up with blood.
I don’t think we totally escape with back problems.
Won’t it be wonderful to not have to worry about physical ailments?
We are sisters of several kinds! Ain’t it wonderful?
-
Oh honey, my sister I truly can empathize with you. Sometimes it feels like this will never go away. It's is so unbelievable, I feel so awful, I even had to hire someone to come and mow my lawn a couple days ago! I have never done that in my entire life. There is a brother that comes to visit our congregation very frequently from another city, he's a ministerial servant in his congregation and is used frequently in our congregation, he said he would love to come and mow my lawn so in a couple weeks he's going to do that for me. I just don't want to do anything that will cause my mid back or my ribs 2 hurt any worse.
I hope I can get this to stop hurting. Using massage and Chiropractic I'm hoping to get this to stop hurting.

Please pray for me. My son and I regularly go to the convention together. This year, his inactive wife, (for years) is going. Just for the trip.(her FB posts tell that tale) I decided long ago to not go with a person not in the truth for conventions, (long story there) and, alas, here I go again. (And I’m surprised my son’s congregation turned a badge loose for her. We almost had to have a notarized statement to get more then one badge.)
Any way, good for her. We are busy planning details. I think she is in for a theocratic shock. She’s never seen our videos.
So, pray for her too, that this is the jolt she needs.
I know we need it!
-
Being instrumental to someone's attending a meeting (despite past letdowns,) shows mature Christian love on your part. Knowing you, I'm not a bit surprised at that. Yup, prayers are going out for all in your group. Jehovah knows how much effort we exert to get our calls, Bible Students, and especially our family/extended family members to the congregation assemblies; prayer being perhaps the most visibly unnoticed. Satan would like to keep her away from the convention. Congrats for helping overcome obstacles. Y (standing in the back of the room doing jumping-jacks)S

My back is, “out”. Which means I can hardly get out of bed, and, there is no bending over. At all. And, pain.
Usually I know how it happened. Not this time. In service yesterday,, I was grateful to be put in a car with some bible studies.
This is the type of pain that no sort of pain numbing pill will work. I am hooked up to a TENS machine.
I got it because at the conventions, my back would hurt so bad, I wanted to cry. Again, pain pills will not work.
So, me and my little machine will be good friends until this is over.
(I always get scared that I’ve done something really bad to my back that will almost incapacitate myself.) So far...
Sorry for complaining.☹️

Back, still not 100%. (If ever!) But, it is better. I am forced to have wonderful posture, still bending...not good. But, I’m still moving around, doing what I do, just slower, and more careful.
Not too bad, actually. I need to be more methodical anyway. Give thought to what I am doing.

I spend hours on my PC and like to slouch. Doing my back no favors. Then I'm out most days taking public transport and slouch some more.
The back problem started decades ago when I got baptised in the sea while I was having a fever. Then with my wet clothes, waiting to be transported back to the hotel, I caught rheumatism. My life went downhill from then onwards. My bible study conductor and her older brother put a lot of pressure on me to get baptised. I blamed them for my back problems. Both of them are dead. The sister from cancer and her brother from heart problems. The Society only recently brought out the fact that we should not force people to get baptised. 40+ years too late.
Suffering all these while with an Aspies husband in tow, life has not been a bed of roses. Sigh. Sorry for venting.
Come to think of it, Jehovah has given me many blessings. Like the many humble brothers and sisters in my non-English congregation. My heart overflows with joy. Must meditate on my blessings. Write it out in a book. What priceless gifts from on High.
-
Can someone fix that double post. No, I do t know how it happened.
Thanks!

Okay. I’ve done it. We have a safe. (We don’t lock our doors when we leave. We figure if they got to the house, past the big, growly dogs, they are serious about getting in.)
We are so rural, that, well, come on in, don’t do damage, take what you desperately need, and, just go!
Among what we might loose, we don’t need to be repairing windows or doors.
Sooooo. Oh, we have a safe. A big one. We put things in there that really mean something to us.
Me? My jewelry. Some of it is worth a little, but most of it, well, I’d be hard pressed to replace it. Never mind what is gifts...
Anyway, I have a red, sparkly box, about 6x8 inches or so. It has a bow on it! It has the pieces that mean the most to me.
And, yes, I vaguely remember stashing it someplace, thinking, “I will remember”. Yep.
The house is not that big, but, my stashy places are numerous. From when we didn’t have the safe.
I got lazy, and am paying for it.
I will find it...I know I will.

I do this, then I say to myself, pretty soon it will be gone anyway...Actually, I have a talk, and I had to stop worrying about it. So, we shall see.
It’s just stuff, I tell myself. Then I start thinking about who has given me what. Then I start fretting again.
Today, the meeting, tomorrow, town, then...
At this point, all I can see myself doing is a, “we are going to move”, house cleaning. Ugh. I used to do that. Then I got old. And tired.
At times like this, I wonder why I am trusted to drive off of the property!
-
Where was it you lived again Bea ? LOL I am just kidding. I am slowly giving things of any value away ...purging and
down sizing. I am not that ancient but feel less and less attached to things because when the GT comes it may all be left behind so might as well let go and feel a sense of freeness. I have things no one wants ....tried giving to Grand Kids ...nope they are not in the least bit interested. I let go of my moms treadle Singer sewing machine not one of the Granddaughters wanted it so it went to a grandson.
-
Um, I found my stash place. I’ve been deep cleaning, and I found my stash in the top center drawer, my dresser, upstairs. I just sort of kept deep cleaning, and figured, sooner, or later.
I toddled downstairs, and put the found items in the safe.
The more you have, the more you worry about.
But, I started to think. A crystal necklace given to me by a dear, dear sister. She wore it in her younger days. A woven piece, that is unique, and beautiful. A green dentilliam necklace my husband gave me, a Klamath jade that I love. Me and rocks! It was made by a friend. Etc.
Stuff. I know. It’s the sentimental pieces that mean the most. One, day, I suspect, it will be just memories. But, for now...
-
It’s a sad day for me. My sister has died. She’s resting now at last. In Jehovah’s perfect memory.
I will find time for tears, but, I just made a salad, and, it is time for service.
I think I’m afraid to start crying.

My Dearest Bea,
I was sad to read the loss of your sister its difficult to loose a family member. Family's are like a tree although there are many branches going in different directions and perhaps not all producing the best results , none the less it's still family and it's blood. We are forever connected by the roots we share the same DNA and in effect they will always be part of us. Soon Jehovah will finish off death forever, resurrect our loved ones and those who need a fresh start will have the opportunity to know Jehovah's love and goodness. Hang in there Bea you are a trooper and we love you

We expect all community members to be active publishers in their congregations, therefore, please do not apply for membership if you are not currently one of Jehovah's Witnesses.
