Just to add, we always had cats in our homes, and I now have a cat called Dusty who came from the SPCA. She's 3 years old now. She's a bit spoiled as she's the only cat, often we would have two or even three hanging around. So she doesn't share her food bowl with anyone else. She also...has her...

I have a fridge magnet that says - Home is where the cat is. I've lived in the same house since I was born. It definitely is home to me. I arrange my bedroom how I like, I do the garden. I clean and tidy it. Funny you should mention Garfield. For most of my childhood I was the biggest fan of...

Huh I see this thread is still going. I'm not in schools anymore but I do recall restraints being effective i.e the disruptive child is taken outside of the classroom and maybe given some time out before returning to class. They may require extra teaching time one-on-one. I am sure preschools...

You can potentially reach a lot more ppl on social media since it's the world-wide web, when things go viral. I mean look at Taylor Swift. She was very savvy in the way she interacted with fans on social media. She's a billionaire. She sells more music/concert tickets than anyone and she...

NZ economy isn't strong, and we only have 5 million people and can't compete against bigger countries. There is no tipping culture here. The bookstore I used to work in has closed down. The hairdresser where I got my dye job and cut closed down. Smith and Caughey, an almost 100 years old...

You say he doesn't like anyone in your family but there might be someone maybe not on your side of the family but the other (in-laws) that aren't into drugs and alcohol, and who aren't annoying (maybe that means...preachy) First loves are often just puppy loves.

Oh, that's sad, you need to pray for him and welcome him back when he repents. Yea drugs and alcohol aren't good things. How old is he? Peer pressure is a big thing, and he wants to fit in with the fast crowd. I don't have children or grandchildren but I would be worried as an aunty. I just...

Huh. Fantasy for me is a genre of fiction where theres dragons and elves and the odd Hobbit. I'm really not that into it, even though LOTR was filmed in my country, a stand in for Middle Earth. I think a lot of hipsters had this idea that they were saving the planet by recycling and going...

I think I've caught up on everything now. I wonder where this Steve guy went. Did he get banned or got married and is now frequenting the married peoples forum. I should check it out. I wonder what they talk about in there? Mortgages and taxes? Childcare? Date Nights? How not to kill each other?

Ruth's famous line in the Bible - I go where you go, your people shall be my people your God is my God, and I will die and be buried where you are buried. Excuse me for my paraphase, but note that she was saying this to NAOMI, not Boaz. Ruth was welcomed to the land of Israel, having...

I think with Esther it was because she was young and maybe a lot more submissive than King Xerxes first bride Vashti, who rebelled when she didn't want to be paraded around like a trophy wife. Note that, if Esther didn't do what the King wanted, he could kill her and nobody would bat an eye...

Interesting that advice to the Corinthians - who were sex mad, according to the letter was saying that if not having sex with each other they should be praying lol. I wonder if they could not do both at the same time. But yea, not good advice for a Christian single forum. Actually singles have...

Yea plus there are hormones in the food we eat, especially meat. Hormones are not entirely all in our control. For example, I can't say to my body..please let me ovulate at the right time, never have a miscarriage, and look youthful for my entire life. If I have a lot of money, maybe I can have...

I don't like the whole game. I feel like I'm in a meat market. Honestly. it felt like that from the age of 13 and it's still that way. Christians may claim they are more spiritual than others, but I would say for the most part, they are still in the flesh and want the flesh. The new testament...

Yea run a criminal check first. Then previous marriage register and the dates. Credit score? How much it will cost you to date/ get married How many children they have or want to have Honesty rating Religious affiliation Whether they will sleep on the right side or the left. Extended...

Imagine dragons? Are they like a Dinosaur Jr knock off. Dinosaurs are basically dragons that don't fly. I've been learning guitar and we are learning Somebody I used to know by Gotye and Kimbra. I like it, I'd never heard of it till 2 weeks ago. It's about a break up that ended horribly and...

I'm a librarian. We are supposed to read every single book. Or the titles at least. Otherwise how are we to know what we have in the library? However I don't have to read James Patterson, or Norah Roberts to know that every book they write is kinda the same. How else do they churn out 250...

my mum said to me, before she passed, that it was better to be happy and single than married and miserable. And I think she's right. One of my aunties married, and it was hell for her and her children when her husband threatened to kill her. Or the other aunty who's husband cheated on her.. and...

Oh I won't forget the guy in the wheelchair who can talk a hind leg off a donkey and has a house with a smelly dog. One of the church ladies thought he was the perfect match for me and even offered to hold like a party at her house where she would invite him and I'd be there to turn on the...
