Words that get on your nerves

Have we had Mindfullness ? Used by so many in association with Serenity and Relaxation but I'd say it was exactly the opposite......... a full mind is not relaxing.

 

Here we go again,
So which one is you @shiney?

 

Anxious, everybody is anxious these days, ask them why, and they dont know.
Just had a couple of Jehovah witnesses chatting at the door, very nice people but somehow disturbing.
We didn't get on, believe it or not, but they did like the plants in the front garden.

 

I'm fortunate to have a porch door. I smile, shake my head and shut the door.
However, it occurs to me that many people are lonely. They never get to speak to anyone. There's not even a milkman anymore to see if you haven't taken in the milk. Someone knocking at the door to speak to them would be a lifeline . Join the club whether you believe or not, there's human contact.

 

They liked my doormat.

 

Did they get to wipe their feet on it.

I could drop dead tomorrow and I often wonder how many days poor old Ben would be wandering around wondering what had happened before any one would find out.

Not sure the JWs are the answer though. About as welcome as the rent collector in the 50s.

 

Better than nothing, maybe. I like my own company but some don't

 

Brings to mind that old 70s joke,

What is the difference between a Jehovah witness and a Lada, ( it was a car in the 70s from Russia for those to young to remember).

Punchline, you can close the door on a Jehovah witness.
Sorry.

 

Not sure how to answer that one.

 

We used to get plagued by double glazing , fix her roof, spray stuff on your house to keep the rain out. I told them we were moving in a fortnight and they buggggrd off.

 

@pete are you suggesting some people wouldn't like my company?

 

The JWs come to my door about once a year and I smile and tell them I have my own powerful faith but thank them for coming by. Then as they walk away I, in a cheerful voice, say god bless them. It seems to rattle them a bit but

 

Apparently JW's can be put off their stride by:
-Greeting them naked
-cheerfully but determinedly attempting to convert them to satanism
