I do have a smart tv. Phillips Roku TV 65 inch under 1;year old. Just can't figure it out. So much I can't figure out. Its embarrassing. Now I have 7 remotes in my living room and can never find the right one. FP remote, picture frame remote for Kincaid portrait, DVD , a remote for a faux tree, the music remote and the tv, Roku, and Xiaomi! I'm to the point I need to attach them with a string to each device!

I just bought the Xiaomi TV Box S off Amazon. I finally got it hooked up but can't figure out how to cast. Time to call a sharp minded brother to come help and bake him something special!

I have always thought this. Unfortunately I live in a very small seniors unit--total 550 sq ft with my two small companions. I have started prepping on a small scale but I have NO room to store. I go between buying some things I think will be necessary in order to share with friends. Then I think as I step over and move things around why am I doing this? Don't I believe Jehovah will provide for his people and recall the manna miraculously provided. Then I think well, we have been cautioned to have a few things ready because wouldn't we be short sighted not too? You can see this weighs terribly on my mind. I have no water saved. I live in a senior complex of 80 individual units and there are 9 of us that are witnesses. All the rest of witnesses here are in my neighboring shared hall. I think this will be my basement buddy scenerio. I have all ready shared special meals with them and am disappointed because no one has ever come by to see me. But I will be ready to share. I bought a sterno stove and 12 cans of sterno that will last 6 hrs each. I have life water straws and a hand crank radio, a solar phone and iPad charger . A back pack full of whatever came in it. I don't want to open it because I fear I won't get everything back inside. I am thinking about buying a bed tent. Google them. I lived in an RV which was very nice-FP, dishwasher , washer)dryer, etc for two years after Rick died. There was a whole winter I wish I knew about a bed tent. Propane does not last long, then everything would freeze. My hair on top of my head froze to the wall one night. Decided that would be the last winter I would stay in an RV. Not to mention living in tornado alley. I figure if I have no electric due to any number of possible reasons the tent on my comfy bed would hopefully allow my two furries and I an enclosed small shelter out of the weather and maybe we could possibly provide enough body heat to stay warm. Poppy is only three pounds so it is unlikely he will be much help but GOSH IS HE ADORABLE! MAGGIE MAE my 10 pound Boston Terrier well it just goes without saying. She is a snugglers delight . There are so many old hippies here I guess I could always open windows and breathe in the weed fortified air if I get to down and depressed. It's really eye opening to see three old codgers sitting around in camp chairs passing a joint around, they are honestly 12 feet from my kitchen window. I never imagined a senior complex looking like this! I have never smoked dope (except for two occasions when I was in my 30s) but I might be forced into changing that. If you ever want to check on me and I'm talking out if my mind just blame it on my neighbors.

MTV...my mom waiting for the premier of Dallas then the cliff hanger for Who shot JR. It was a whole summer of listening to people give their guess on who it might be. Then the commercials were on A LOT. The concluding episode of MASH was anticipated too.

Kennedy assassination. Age 7 Sick home from school and mom had fixed a pallet on the sofa for me to watch TV while she did ironing. I don't remember the TV as much as I remember her being in shock and crying. Moon landing My dad called me to the TV where we watched and he told me to remember this moment as history was being made. NASA SPACE CHALLENGER blew apart shortly after launch and 7 astronauts were lost. Then OKC bombing just dropped kids off at school. Then 9/11 tragedy. 3 births I remember but not as clearly as the 9/11 event. I suspect my next one will be GT realization possibly Armageddeon.

Yes. Two months ago. First one ever from a neighboring hall.

I am on a fixed income from SS benefits. We will get a small increase and the last 3 years since I started it only covers the increase of part B so I don't look for it to be different this year. May I ask how you are coping with the increase in fuel since most need it for work and service? It's mostly retired pioneers out in our hall during the week because the others are working and have families. I'm curious as to how fuel increase will effect our ministry? I always contribute to the gas fund because some are not able. We had an announcement a month ago re contributions being a little shy , you could tell it was an uncomfortable part the elder had to address.

I can't even choose an emoji because I feel so many of them

Diesel is 6.00 gal here and has been a week or two. I think we are in a state where it is on the low end. I can't imagine how the others are making ends meet. Preppers are sending me emails and texts and I don't know how they are linking me to that. My apartment is only 550 sq feet and I am crowded now.

Oklahoman here. Was living in California at the time. A study was still years ahead of my time. But oddly I felt 'extra grief', felt like I could identify more closely for some reason. Years later, having been baptized now 5 years I felt extremely close to the situation. I could recognize it was because of the world HQ being there and all our spiritual family. Now, wherever a disaster strikes that is the first feeling, how are the friends? I immediately pray for them. This closeness I fell now is due to Jehovah alone broadening my empathy for the brotherhood mostly then mankind in general.

I wish he would turn around where we could get a view of his backside. News media often highlights this saying the pants look 'full'. I don't know...it's just what I've heard many times.

Did you notice the man at the podium in the RED tie...

Couldn't the excitement of not knowing be part of the keeping awake?

Thank you. I understand now. I read the article we are to study in December (I guess it is October WT) . I'm heat fatigued. It's been 108 and about for 2 months here in the desert of Oklahoma. Lol. That's my story and I'm sticking to it.

I do not understand when you say it has not been released yet. I read the article at least 6 weeks ago and still can access the December study article. Please explain because I have FOMO. 😉
