    Wow, got the JWs at my door a few minutes ago. I'm taking a slow morning, doing my Christmas cards, drinking coffee, listening to Christmas music. I got on the computer for a minute to get an address and the doorbell rings! Well here I still am in my robe, hair not combed, etc., but I saw them out of the peephole in the door so I couldn't resist.

    I put on my very best smile (hope there were no cheerio's in my teeth), asked them to mark me down as apostate, and wished them both a very merry christmas. They continued smiling, said thank you, and scurried away.

    LOL

    Can I assume you were fully clothed?

    That's a sure way for them not to come knocking again. LOL Good for you. They must be out in droves today.

    Yes, fully clothed, although had I disrobed I would have really sent them into a panic! At my age!

    Funny thing is, I looked out the window about 15 minutes later and they were all men, about 6 of them. Thats pretty unusual. Wonder if the CO is with them.

    An offer of Wassal might have been appropriate at that point... afterall they were going door to door carrying the "message".... hee hee.

    I can image there conversation would have gone something like this after your door closed

    "You see sister how the world is, Look at the time she is still in her bedclothes!!! Disgusting.!!!! Brother elder told us on the platform only a few months ago How on rising from out beds, we should get dressed right away!! And did you hear the music she is playing...PAGAN!!!! But the house looks nice I might come back for this one after Armeggedon"

    roflmao! Yes Mouthy, I agree! I remember those types of conversations. Always either had to put a positive spin on it or find some way to feel better at their expense. You had to talk some kind of trash like that to make you feel better about going to doors where no one wanted to see you or house after house after house where no one was home.

    Personally I liked marking NH on my slip.

    Brenda, all sorts of things go through your mind after its all over. I don't know which would have sent them scurrying off faster, the paganness, the lesbianness, or the apostateness. I knew which one wouldn't make them feel entitled to come back and "cure" me!
