I assume dyslexia or a similar LD.
Could be. I have always felt sorry for her. Joy was supposed to be her buddy, but Jana got the job because Josie was so ill. How you could pass off a fragile newborn to a daughter to care for, even it is the oldest daughter, is beyond me.

I hadn't noticed that, so I went back and look. Yes, you're right--everyone read their own cards except Josie.
Josie was a micro premie. She may have some delays. We have seen her act much younger than her age. Being the youngest, I'm sure she has been babied. And I doubt "school" is being taught or of much importance anymore. Education has never been shown to be of much importance in this family. She will be courting in 3 or 4 years, so lack of educational skills won't matter too much. This is just so sad.

We know Jessa is living minimalist. Is her mattress still on the floor? Don't the kids only have 3 or 4 outfits each? We know she doesn't spend any money on wrapping paper. I guess she has to have something to post about.

I'm proud of Tim for showing interest and actually going to museums and other places of interest, and asking for other suggestions. And I am quite sure that he and Heidi won't be writing on walls or climbing buildings. I am also quite sure that they are going to these places during viewing times, and not after hours. This is a whole new world for Tim, and I'm happy he is participating and showing enjoyment. There is hope for him yet.

I get the kids confused. Was Gabe the one who did not want to move because he was going to be in a leadership position at school? Football captain, or something like that. Whoever it was, he desperately wanted to stay at his LV high school for this last year, and Janelle finally gave in to Kody because she wanted "the right to raise her son". I remember he was extremely upset, and I felt so bad for him. He had the option to live with a married sibling (Aspyn??), and they would not let him stay. These kids really have had a hard live that was caused by their parents.

I counted the fingers, too. That does look very strange.
I think it is really great that her severely injured shoulder and knee were not an issue on her trip. I wonder when the injuries will be brought up again. They seem to come and go as needed. One of my friends that I'm cruising with has to have a total shoulder replacement when we get back. Now THAT is a severely injured shoulder. Do we even know how Jill's "severely" injured shoulder happened?

What's up with her hand? It looks so much like an AI generated hand that I actually stopped to count the fingers. Somehow, it wasn't even clear that there were five of them at first glance.

That's strange. My Whirlpool side-by-side will be 4 this July and the door gaskets are just fine.
If you mean the new one between "fire" and "applause", that's the new "thanks". I don't really like it, it's ambiguous. If you hover over each of them with the mouse it will tell you what it is.
I was at a friend's house today, and her KitchenAide, which is the same age as my Whirlpool, is starting to have shreded gaskets, too. There must be something going on with Whirlpool. Ours are both double door bottom freezer models. Maybe that makes a difference.

I don't remember--when is Tim's and Heidi"s wedding? I know they have the dress, venue, and caterer.

Speaking of refrigerators, has anyone besides me had to replace door gaskets on a newer refrigerator? I have had Whirlpool/KitchenAide appliances for years. I bought a new Whirlpool refrigerator 3 years ago and had to replace the door gaskets last year. I noticed last week that they are starting to shred again. Am I just unlucky, or is this a known problem.

How about "Josh and Anna--there is nothing fun about them" (I'm joking)
I agree--"Josh and Anna" is fine.

The Josh and Anna thread isn't very fun. It deals with a convicted felon and his family. I personally think that thread should remain just Josh and Anna.

Jed!'s kids are closer together (though not quite Irish twins), but they didn't get pregnant with their first as quickly.
Jed!+Katey--> married 4/3/21, first kid born 5/2/22, second born 5/24/22
Jer+Hannah--> married 3/26/22, first kid born 12/25/22, second born 2/25?/24
I hope this was just a typo. Two kids born a week and a half apart would be unique.

I'd love to see that. I wonder if they still handout those "ads" to anyone who passes by on the sidewalk? If you have been there, you know what I mean. They do not discriminate who gets one. I would see people take them, thinking it was a cool freebie, see what it was and throw it away.
I wonder if Dave and Jill would be allowed to pass out their smilies to people on the sidewalk. Since the ones that are handed out pertain to specific establishments, I would doubt it. But I can see Jill trying. What time of year is the Plexus meeting? If it is in the summer they will almost have to stay inside out of the heat. They would have to hang around inside with all the gambling, and there is really no place to avoid the action. Even to get to the meeting rooms in the hotels you have to walk through the gamblers and drinkers. And I doubt they would appreciate the shows. Maybe she will be happy with qualifying and not attending this one. Las Vegas really is a different type of atmosphere.

I would bet that DW is his spiritual advisor. Maybe Joe is in training since Anna's family has a history of prison ministry. David being there does not surprise me at all. He and Josh appeared to be good friends in the past.

I researched sheets 3 years ago, and settled on these ones from JC Penney
They came highly rated from Wirecutter. I like them, and they are holding up well.
I really like my sheets from the Sleep Number store. They have held up very well, wash well, and are very soft. They have elastic all around, plus additional elastic straps on the corners, so they stay in place very well.

I Just came back from having my taxes done by AARP. In case you are unaware, AARP offers free tax preparation for seniors (I think you have to 50 or 55, I don't remember). You take your tax info and they prepare your taxes while you wait. It is sponsored by AARP, but you do not have to be an AARP member. Your taxes are double checked and they give you the form for your payment or refund. There is a website--AARP Tax services, or something like that, that has locations by state, and then by town. Here they start taking reservations mid January and start tax preps mid February. It is appointment only, and the site has the phone number to call. They have a few restrictions that they will tell you about when you make your appointment. The slots do fill fast, so you have to make a reservation early. I know a lot of people don't know about this service, and I hope it helps someone to get ready for next tax season. There was a lady there this morning that is almost blind, and they were very helpful and kind to her.

Our blizzard has finally past, and it is sunny today. Sunny but very cold. I live at altitude, so it is a very dry cold. I'm going to find out soon how the same temps feel at sea level----on a ship in the North Sea. I'm guessing it will feel much colder. I'm finding it is much, much harder to pack for a vacation in very a cold climate as opposed to a beach vacation. You don't need to figure out how to pack snow boots and a big jacket to go to the beach.

It makes me concerned for his mental health. I take it he now believes he made the chicken Nuggets appear? Now I believe God can preform miracles but I doubt this is one and I am sure this this not happen Amy had the Nuggets and cooked them. I am concerned about Dax being taught to lie so young how will he know what the truth is. Sorry about the rambling post...it all is just so wrong I do not know where to start.
This plus his fascination with throwing knives and annoying the cat makes me very worried.

I decided to ask for help with the titles for the locked threads.
I’m hoping it will be seen as a first step good faith gesture that we want to keep this forum and we’re willing to work towards turning it green. 💚
Thank you. I was hoping someone would know how to do this. At least we know have some documentation that we are willing to try.

Is it posting in real time though? I don't think I'd like that. I just like to read and post when I get around to it in my own sweet time. (But I'm sure that for those who want to chat in real time it would be a good place for them.)
I really have no idea. I had never heard of the site until yesterday. I would hope the posts are readable at any time, like this site. But you have a good point, and we need to find out more.

I downloaded the Discord App. Please tell me what to do next when our site is set up. I may need your help!

Discord sounds like what we need--a place to meet and post.
I don't really think that we are being red-lighted because of anything we did in particular. I think it was several people filing many complaints. I get the feeling that the person in charge reacts instead of investigating, and complainers have figured that out. We have not had the chance to explain the difference between a scripted show and a reality show. We have not been given a chance to show how respectful and diverse this group is. We have not been given any direction on how to "clean up our act". The complainers have finally figured out how to shut us down. Look at the Shopping Channel forum. It disappeared literally right before our eyes. On the Major Crimes forum, which is a green-light forum, NO COMPLAINTS was mentioned as one of the things that makes them a green forum.
Our personal feelings do not appear to count for anything. How is that following the guidelines or showing kindness to other posters?

If anyone wants to see a "green light" forum, to go Major Crimes. The new person in charge made a congratulatory post and told them all the things they are doing correctly. Apparently no complaints have been received about this forum.

Sweet Fellowship: Duggars and Friends (aka the Bates Family and Other Featured Families Thread)
in Counting On
Thanks. I thought they had said the wedding would be in September, but I only heard that once, and never an actual date. Now if they would just move farther away from Tim's home and closer to Heidi's home. I wonder if that will ever happen.
