has there been new info on associating with family?
by Mulan inmy husband's youngest jw brother sent him a note about two months ago, and included his email address.
he said he would like to start a line of communication.
my husband was very happy because he had not seen or heard from his brother in years, the only one of his family still alive.

My JW elderly aunt just called me..........
by Mulan inshe lives thousands of miles away from me, and called me now to tell me how much she loves me and misses me, and she started crying, and could hardly get out the words, about the wt study for tomorrow.
she begged me to go to the meeting and hear the information, so i compromised with her and told her i would get a copy of the magazine and read it.. i felt so badly for her.
we were always very close, and her daughter, my late cousin sharon, who died in 2001, was my closest friend in my life.

Princess' Polar Bear Swim
by Mulan inshe will probably kill me for posting these photos, but i can't resist.. last thursday, our rachel (princess here) and one of her friends decided to dive into a local lake and do a polar bear swim, despite the fact that the temperature was in the teens and there was fresh snow from the night before.. here are a few photos.
you can see the snow on the ground and notice everyone else is bundled up.. .
this is before she dove in.

Snow .................again.
by Mulan init snowed here at the end of december and i said then that it usually doesn't snow here in the seattle area until january or february.. well.............they predicted a big snowstorm last night, and it didn't happen, but it's snowing now, really hard.
not sure if it will last long, because the weather forecasters can't seem to predict much correctly, other than rain and wind.. i was hoping to take pictures but it's dark, so will have to wait until morning.
a cold front is supposedly going to last awhile here, so the snow should be around for a few days this time..

Comment on "The View" today
by Mulan ini had the view on tv while i was cleaning this morning, and the women started talking about pat robertson's prediction for 2007. the guest co host, sherri shepherd, said "i used to be in the religion that rang your doorbells on the weekends and sold pamplets, but they predicted the world would end in 1995 (i'm sure she meant 1975) and that didn't happen either.
" .
for those not in the u.s., the view is a daily morning tv talk show for women..
