queenanne February 3, 2018 Share February 3, 2018 6 hours ago, DragonFaerie said: Good grief. Neither, I nor my Mr. Dragon have ever had a job where you could just drop in on the other one. Many times, I wasn't even allowed to see his office because of the work he did. He would have to meet me in reception. I cannot fathom, gathering up 2 babies, getting them loaded into car seats, filling the diaper bags and driving somewhere, just to haul out the 2 small babies, load them into strollers, just to bring Mr. Dragon lunch and then reverse it all to bring them all back home. How much time does that take? Plus, you have breakfast and dinner together, I would assume, so I think you can just send him off with a lunch box in the mornings. Perhaps she's worried that he will follow in her brother Josh's footsteps and being out in the real world he'll cheat on her? To be fair, I don't think she had the two babies at the time. She might not even have had the one baby. He wasn't employed all that long, in the grand scheme of things. 4 Link to comment

Let me count the ways: * Disposable plates and silverware - I cannot fathom the amount of garbage this creates. They go on and on about being frugal. Would it not be cheaper to buy like 3 sets of dishes at Walmart or such and just wash them instead of buying the disposable ones constantly and the garbage bags? *There is a restaurant style soda machine in the kitchen - with more disposable cups and such. Perhaps this is a reason the Howlers are running around and jumping over furniture? *They live on like 20 acres? and with all the family members they do not have a garden. They also don't have chickens for eggs, or raising 3 or 4 cows a year for beef. *Their diet - it's horrific. It all seems to be frozen from the store, canned or pre-packaged. Nothing fresh or truly homemade. *They have a snack fridge. The kids seem to graze all day without regular meal times and just grab what they want. *5 year olds share a bedroom with sisters like 20 years older than them This is just the start. LOL I wonder if they feel like they are conserving water by avoiding using the dishwasher or sink. Of course there is still the issue with laundry... 1 Link to comment
Absolom February 3, 2018 Share February 3, 2018 They removed the soda machine a few years ago just for the sake of accuracy. Jana has a garden and it's quite lovely. Although they could easily quadruple its size to provide fresh vegetables at least half the year. 3 Link to comment

She had probably been so used to constant busyness by then that she needed a new outlet, and found the outdoors to be a more soothing environment than being inside the TTH.

Lady Edith February 5, 2018 Share February 5, 2018 Don’t let her sudden supposed “free time” fool you. She still requires constant accompaniment by SOMEONE in the house. Because don’t you know there are sex-starved menfolk lurking in the rutabagas just waiting to jump out. And you can’t leave a woman alone near that defrauding kale! Just to keep her safe she will be tending her garden with 10 littles trailing behind her. Omg the annoyance she must feel. Can’t even pull weeks without an entourage. 3 14 Link to comment

jennblevins June 1, 2018 Share June 1, 2018 (edited) I ate at Chick-Fil-A for the first time ever today. It was lunchtime, I was hungry, and it was there. It was, on the whole, a reasonable fast food experience. The whole time I was waiting for my food, though, I was mentally replaying scenes of Duggars and Duggar-adjacents eating at Chick-Fil-A. Anna and the M-kids dressing as cows. Pris and TFDW camping outside a newly-opened one. Jill and the Dillard boys walking a million miles uphill both ways in the snow to get to one in Colorado. (Or something like that.) And so forth. I’m not sure it quite reaches “infuriating,” as I try to reserve that for more important things, but it was definitely irritating to have my head filled with someone else’s memories of a restaurant I’d never been to. I realize that this is as much my fault as theirs, but even so. Edited June 1, 2018 by jennblevins Can’t spell. 9 Link to comment

For my money it's good enough to make a special trip, if you are, say, suffering from a cold too nasty or desperate to stand around juicing your own lemons, as/since they make it fresh. I can take or leave any types of the food (and in fact have only eaten there twice in my lifetime), but the lemonade is tops and goes down nicely on an irritated throat. 4 Link to comment
Popular Post questionfear June 1, 2018 Popular Post Share June 1, 2018 I never grew up eating CFA, and so the few times I've had it, I felt it sat somewhere between "better than Burger King" and "overrated". It's not bad, it's just not good. Also, I say this every time CFA comes up, but the big difference between CFA and the Duggars is that CFA actually tries to embody the socially responsible side of their "Christian" values. After the Pulse nightclub shooting, CFA opened (ON A SUNDAY) so they could provide free food to people lined up to donate blood. Yes, it was a publicity stunt to some extent, but still-CFA broke their own rules about being open on a Sunday to help the LGBT community, even though the CFA leadership is opposed to LGBT rights. Basically, it gives them a glimmer of "not so terrible" in my eyes, because they at least knew that no matter how much they can whine about sin and campaign against our rights, they also knew that at the end of the day you step up and help support people trying to save lives. Maybe I'm just a horrible person, but I can't see the Duggars taking even that step-I really doubt the Duggars would ever donate food or blood in a situation like that. 27 Link to comment

GeeGolly June 9, 2018 Share June 9, 2018 It's so true that the Duggars don't appear to be very charitable on a local level with the exception of politicians they want elected to push their own agenda. Another thing that bugs me about the Duggars is their use of the word friend. They use the word in a superficial manner and/or a patronizing manner. I cringe every time Michelle and Jill say my friend. 16 Link to comment

queenanne June 10, 2018 Share June 10, 2018 I assume it's because Christians are supposed to love one another and never have any bad feelings, thus loving everyone they meet; so no one is a foe, or a frenemy, or hostile in any way. Link to comment

These horse had been getting out for months and nothing was fixed or secured to insure safety to these pregnant large beautiful horses. The real kicker is, every other day there are 17 horse in the highway last week, 10 the next day and it is still not being addressed. Is there an advocate that can at least insure the horses have a person to protect them and in doing that our children, fathers,mothers, cousins, family and friends will be safer also. Please help get this what they deserve? Show the world what the locals know and see. Quit donating to these people and praising them in the name of God. This is the devils work not God. The community that this Camp is in, it does not have a football or a baseball field. The have a trailer for a library. Most kids go home hungry because there is no jobs and it is a poor rural area.

Zella June 11, 2019 Share June 11, 2019 Hi, @Rockycreekgirl, I don't think anyone on here is discussing it because we haven't heard it.

BitterApple June 11, 2019 Share June 11, 2019 This is the first time I've heard of this, although I'm not surprised. I've seen pictures of the horses via the camp website and social media and they looked mangy and poorly cared for. Has anyone local contacted Animal Control? If this is an ongoing issue, it should be reported. 5 Link to comment
Temperance June 12, 2019 Share June 12, 2019 I haven't seen it here or any other sites. I visit other snark sites and I haven't seen it. As far as I know, all of the Forsyth grandchildren are under 3. It's not unusual for children that age to be at home. I will say that what we've seen of Camp Fort Rock seems to be lax on safety percautions and standards. 3 Link to comment
