[18:58] [Owlhawk] hello [18:58] Warming up lol you? [18:58] We are chilling down. Might have snow on Friday [19:03] [Owlhawk] we have a snow squall watch that lasts into tomorrow afternoon or evening [19:03] Hubby went out the other night to call the kittens to come inside. He felt a cat rub up against his leg. He looked down and froze. The kitty hadd two wide white stripes. It casually walked off the porch and out into the yard. [19:04] SNow is normal for you. We haven't had snow here for over ten years. [19:04] [Owlhawk] lol [19:04] [Owlhawk] yes it is. good lluck if you get soe [19:04] [Owlhawk] some [19:04] Definitely would be an eye opener I'd imagine [19:06] It isn't a native species so we think she is a former pet. She and our cats get along well. [19:15] So what is on everyone's mind? [19:17] I;m just finally dusting off my neglected Lit 1 submission tonight [19:17] Youself/ [19:17] ? [19:18] I need to finish my Critical Thinking. Just need to evaluate any article and submit the course. [19:22] *** maurilee (Mibbit@sorcery-9u7of1.nj.comcast.net) has joined #adf [19:22] hello all, blessed Tuesday! [19:22] I think that was my least favorite part of that course. [19:22] Hello Maurilee [19:22] Hio [19:24] How are you all doing this night? [19:25] Doing well. [19:27] How are you doing? [19:28] I'm pretty tired today, blame the allergy meds I took to deal with a mild reaction. Needed a rest anyways though. I'm still waiting on news for my acceptance or not for Initiate [19:30] Good Luck. I'm working on that program myself. [19:31] I'm waiting on hearing if we get to go from protogrove to grove. [19:31] I'm sure that will be a night of good news when you receive the information back [19:32] Yes it will be. [19:33] Anything else you've been up too? [19:36] Redoing the filing system here at the house. Getting ready for World Religion Day. [19:37] When is that? [19:40] Every January there is a World Religion Day actually around the world. Ours is one of the largest in the US. In the gym, each faith tradition present has a table where they share their faith trafition. In the chapel, there are three panel discussions each on a different topic. [19:41] The panel had 4 different faith who discuss the question from their tradition. [19:42] We try to have one controversial topic. One year it was gay marriage. [19:42] oh lovely! I'm gonna look and see if there's any around New Jersey [19:44] The traditions we have include: ADF, Hindus, Muslims, UU, Catholics, Budhists, WIccans, LDS, and Baptist. [19:45] That's a good mix! I can't seem to find any around me, but I'm def gonna honor it. [19:47] This is our 20th year. I hate it when people tell me that there aren't any non-Christian religions in this area. [19:48] Oh I would hate that too [19:49] The worst part is that they usually believe what they are saying. [19:49] *** Magermax (Mibbit@sorcery-guiovg.dynamic.mtsallstream.net) has quit IRC [Quit: http://www.mibbit.com ajax IRC Client] [19:50] I've run into that on base [19:53] Understand that. I worked for a city government. [19:53] I've got a full moon planned for the night before so hopefully we can spread the word more again [19:54] I was running a base group but we shrunk too small [19:56] That can be a problem. Protogrove got down to just hubby and me several times but we were too stubborn to give up and there was no one to make us. [19:56] We are running about 6 people now. [19:56] that's a good number [19:56] I'd love to get back to that [19:57] I think we are three official and two repeat quests [19:57] (none military) [20:00] We have 4 paid members, 1 UU pagan, and 2 part-time attendees (one has chronic health issues and the other is current in a homeless shelter). [20:03] oh wow, I hope it turns around for your 2 part time attendees [20:05] The health one will always have problems due to being missing the sack around the heart so she is always at risk. [20:05] oh wow I didn't even know that was possible! [20:05] THe other thinks that his mother will be returning to the area and will move in with her. I give him rides to the meetings. [20:07] She just had her pacemaker battery surgerically replace in November so she is still recovering. SHe is a great person. [20:08] That's really nice of you to give him rides, I hope it all works out [20:09] It will be what is will be. [20:11] how long have you been waiting to find out about your protogrove? [20:12] We submitted the electronic copies on November 11th and mailed the notarized copy on November 12th. [20:13] About three weeks later another grove was announced and they consider one group at a time [20:13] A course we had TYhanksgiving, CHristmas, and New Year fall in there so I hope soon. [20:14] [Owlhawk] as fast as a speeding oak! [20:15] Aah, yes. But everyone is volunteer and have jobs and families so it is understandable. [20:16] you must be getting close [20:16] it shouldn't be too long for either of us now [20:18] Yes, I should think so [20:30] what kind of music do you all listen too? [20:32] Irish, Scottish, rock & roll, and jazz [20:34] [Owlhawk] various. pagan folk to heavy metal to my wife's gods awful country crap [20:34] [Owlhawk] owie [20:35] owie?
