Oh my goodness, I was talking about this today at lunch with my close friend who is also inactive/exmo. She said, "Have you ever thought that food from the bishop's storehouse is made to be gross so that people are more independent and won't ask for it. That shiz is NASTY!" Her mom eats it a lot and sometimes she gets the unfortunately chance of a meal with her. Yuck! Does anyone kn

He is still smoking? If they know about in, he will NEVER fit it, because this excludes him from being "temple worthy". My vts came after me as well, and it's only been 2 weeks. It's SO hard when your actual friends are in strong church positions. My close friend is 2nd counselor in the RS. Guilt is common to feel when you disappoint ANYONE, I wouldn't worry about that.

Well, I told you guys I'd update. Two members of the bishopric showed up at my house around 7:40pm last night. It was a horrible time to show up. I was downstairs working (I work from home), and my husband was upstairs bathing the kids. He did open the door, even though he was half dressed (lol) with only a pair of holey jeans on (no shirt or shoes). He just told them it was a bad time. They said

Hmm...if you're a believer in GOD (the christian God, not the LDS God), then you could say, "Maybe the REAL Holy Spirit is prompting you so that I can tell you the TRUTH about your so called "church". If you're not a believe in any God, then any reply will do, especially a witty, sarcastic one. ;)
