That sounds like it would be very exciting. How would you market your business(es) as you travel? I would think the biggest issue would be keeping a steady income stream going. Once the financial plan is reasonably solid, I would say go for it.

Would like all of your imput on this. Please
by Still Totally ADD inboth reopened mind and i are now in our early 60's and it seems our conversations lately have been on putting everything up for sale and buying a rv and travel until we can't anymore.
it has been a dream of ours for along time to see all the site's in the u.s. and canada.
we feel we could make money as we go by selling and teaching using herbs and gardening.

by EndofMysteries ini can't believe this was a gb approved event since it was for international convention people.

Another Family Escapes Their Clutches
by OnTheWayOut inmy coworker actually was involved in training me, and i used to be a quiet good little jw when he met me.
i first shared information about him on this forum 7 years ago when he was just starting to learn that i was no longer going to the kingdom hall.

I've tried the things mentioned above with some success.
However, either 1) a pinch of salt on the tongue or 2) yogurt and/or probiotics taken about 1/2 hr before bed is my all time fail proof favorite sleep aids. Make sure your room is as dark as possible. Some people have a very sensitive pineal gland and light can totally upset their clock.
And, of course, what works to calm some people can cause anxiety or problems in others. good luck!
My husband is like your wife. He can and does sleep under any and all conditions. It is absolutely maddening!!!

The CO visit this week he says" In August..."
by James Jackson inup until 5 years ago, the co used to work up their own parts for specfic congregations in their circuits.
everything is up to script, in other words, every co in the country are givings the same talks in the local congregations they visit.
what got me to cringe is when he said at the meeting, trying to encourage everyone to pioneer this august; he said :" you know this october it will be 100 years since gods kingdom began ruling, remember what happen when joshua told the israelites to march around jericho on the seventh day, and what happened when they let out a great war cry?

How Many Had Chronic fatigue syndrome?
by OnTheWayOut inchronic fatigue syndrome refers to severe, continued tiredness that is not relieved by rest and is not directly caused by other medical conditions.. did you have many congregation members, particularly pioneers, that said they had " chronic fatigue syndrome" ?.
that's their "get-out-of-jail-free card.
" they were free to cancel anything at anytime and it was their legitimate reason for not doing anything that didn't involve field recruiting.

LOL Freddo. The learned helplessness of the sickly JW is a hot mess for sure.

Speaking of burnout
During pioneer school one day the CO made a big to do about burnout. He went into the definition and causes of it and stated that the prevention and cure for burnout was the full-time ministry.
"How could you ever get burned out serving Jehovah?" were his exact words. He was absolutely serious.

Illness is the only way out for a JW. I knew quite a few Bethelites/pioneers/missionaries who developed CFS. Tons of food intolerances, digestive and repetitive stress issues for JWs serving fulltime also. One thing I noticed with JWs, common illnesses are very exaggerated. A simple cold can knock them out for several weeks. Allergies are another big one for the friends. And to their credit, it does get them out of a lot of jams. Don't want to go to the bookstudy (back in the day) at the stinky house, return visits and bible studies? Just blame your allergies!
One of my aunts has always claimed to be a diabetic. She's never been overweight and she always gets the symptoms backwards when complaining about it. She also gets out of the meetings/field service for at least 5 months a year starting around November when her annual cold turns into bronchitis. She discovered that combo worked wonders about 15 years ago. She never gets tired of the coughing and shortness of breath...lol
My uber righteous, judgemental, and very hypocritcal mother claims to have CFS and fibromyalgia and asthma (two other very popular JW illnesses). Whenever she doesn't want to do something, one of the three flares up instantly....roflmao
