FREELOADER PIONEER SISTER USING MY STUFF BUT I GET YELLED AT!

by stillAwitness in

my mom's got this pioneer sister friend who stays at our house every weekend (she stays in some remote town that's far away from the hall) and i go into my bathroom cabinet this morning and she used up half the bottle of daily oil control cream for my face i had in there.

i mean ladies, you already know how expensive those things are!

and i would always just use a pint size amount so the bottle was filled to capacity.

I am with Lady Lee & Jeannie: buy a cheep bottle - put her name on it.

She will get the message - and since you are not rude to her anyway, it would have the most impact.

You are civil and she ain't

i always was fascinated with cars and driving.

when i was a child going to school, often i sat in the front seat, just to look at the bus driver change gears, press on the clutch and just by looking at the way he did it helped me when i drove my first manual transmission car.. here is a picture of my first car.

an old 1974 volks wagen beetle.

18 when I got my car licence and 21 when I got my motor licence.

funny thing is that the theory part is the same for both, what would happen to my driverslicence (cars)should I fail the motor-theory exams ?

and Viv was'nt 17 the first time: she was 4 and sitting on my lap, while slowly driving in a safari-park.........

When something non-existent does something.

i was browsing around inside the 2004 library and run across an article that said this: "ever since its establishment in 1914, god's heavenly kingdom has been gathering and organizing its subjects from peoples around the world.

" i hate to read things like that in the publications, for two reasons:

1) because i know that the wts is wrong in thinking the kingdom has been established.

When something non-existent does something.

would suggest that it is existing

but the "doing something" could be the work of something quite differents.......

This activity has resulted in the most significant movement of modern times—an international brotherhood of over 6,000,000 Christians in more than 230 lands of the earth. At international conventions of Jehovah’s Witnesses, observers are often astounded to see the love, peace, and unity among the vast crowds of people, transcending barriers of nationality, culture, and language. (Acts 10:34, 35) Would you not agree that for a government to be able to bring hundreds of ethnic groups together in peace and harmony, it must be effective and stable—and real?

I remember that - on a bookstudy - they were telling us that we should know they have the True Religion, because they were a fast growing religion. On which I opposed that the Islam was( maybe is) the fasted growing religion (at that moment) thus that was'nt an argument at all.... Can't remember the answer.

i have a question or an issue if you will.......... .

this is about a friend, that i used to have.

now this has been all recent...... .

seems to be normal for some men...

When I divorced (25 years ago- he dumped me) our friends told me: we are not involved in your divorcing - we are friends of both of you - and will see both of you. which I accepted as normal. Since they were no party in it,

But my ex did'nt: he demanded them to not see me anymore. On which they decided (after a few intermezzo's) that they would'nt see him anymore. They are still my best friends........
