Good Morning Kim! Hope you and all anons have a great day!

I'm a bit of an outcast nowadays

He missed us! He knows we need his direction on what to do next! We have missed you VK! WELCOME BACK!

I wish!

I have read bits and pieces. My problem is that I have so many books that I want to read and I'm on the middle of literally 10 at least right now. But yes I have read a little bit, quite interesting to say the least!

I think it was more so on how the show was portraying him. I can't remember exactly. That night be a good thing to post and ask, maybe others know! I think there was also the thought that the LDS church was a big part of it, or that the directors were part of the LDS.

Yes I am not sure why it is controversial. Maybe because of the artistic elements of it, there was something someone said about Matthew helping him do the Sermon on the Mount. But I think it just makes one research things more. At least for me it does! I have been looking into getting a Geneva Bible that predates even the King James Bible. Supposedly the Ethiopian Bible is one of the earliest. I also try to read the books that are not in the Bible, like the gnostic gospels and the apocrypha. Lots of good stuff in there. Makes you wonder why they were not included!

I get sick of seeing all the ads, not only are they selling poison got your body, but they are putting highly inappropriate content in their shows and commercials, which obviously kids see. I try to stick to dvds of things that are decent. We have pureflix and the Angel app so we watch The Chosen, which I know is controversial. But we enjoy it and I don't take it for an exact account of what happened. I got really pissed with pureflix when they had a movie on there with Megan Fox and hid her name from the credits. I messaged them and they just dismissed it. You would think that a company like that would not show movies that had those types of people in it but I guess I'm wrong.

I feel burned out as well. Not enjoying things as much as I should. I'm not fully present like I need to be. I don't enjoy movies or shows like I used to. I suppose it's a good thing to not watch as much TV but I really do wish this show would get on the road so that we can have other things on our minds that we need to focus on. Not taking away from the importance of what's going on with this whole fight against evil. I realize that is also important too!

And people here are alot friendlier than other places as well!

Yes I feel the same way. I just can't unfollow. Maybe it's the fear of missing out! But I'm glad I posted this today so that I know I'm not alone!

Thank you for helping me figure all this out! Now I know who to go to for questions!

Sorry I got it wrong. It's called the American Community survey!

I will have to look into it more. I thought that the census was one every 10 years and it was only basic info. This one is asking how many bathrooms, are there any disabilities in your household, how much money you make etc. Stuff that I don't feel is any of their business!

They have sent an enormous amount of mail expecting me to fill it out and I'm unsure of how to handle it if they would show up to ask questions in person, which I think is the next step. Since I believe it is unconstitutional, what recourse do I have? Perhaps you don't know but I am hoping someone can point me in the right direction!

I have been getting things in the mail from the American Census Survey and have seen where people have filed complaints about how invasive it is and completely unnecessary. Have you had any experience with this?

Let's try to keep up with our conversations and encouragement for one another. It's definitely getting harder to deal with everything going on, esp with no support or understanding among family or friends.

I will try to keep that in mind! I would like to get back to conversing with like minded people. Alot of stuff gets lost in the shuffle of everything that is going on!

Many times I see the same people posting hundreds of memes or pictures in a row, which many times are good and helpful, but I think alot of other info gets lost in the clutter, for lack of a better word.

Ok, thank you for responding though. Now I know who to go to with questions!

Has anyone else encountered the American Census Survey?

Thank you for responding, so kind! I am having issues with the census that is being sent to random people. I am concerned that they will now show up to my house after ignoring all the requests by mail.

I have been trying to figure out what to do about the American Census survey that is supposedly being sent to "random" people. I keep getting notices in the mail, I think their next step is to send someone to make you answer their questions. Has anyone encountered any of this? I thought we were only required to compete basic census questions every 10 years.

Another reason I'm glad we homeschool! I love teaching my children all the basic skills that are being forgotten!

Every time the lights flicker or the internet is glitchy, I hope that we are there. But then it always seems to come back on. One day though!

Those were the days!

You and me both, I'm trying to make it happen! None of this trivial crap matters!

I'm so sorry Kris! I will keep you and your family in my thoughts and prayers! If there is anything we can do, just ask!

Thank you, I will pass on your birthday greetings to her! I love baking as well, when you find a recipe that works, there is nothing better! We should just start posting recipes that have worked for us, some extra comfort for the winter season!

I love winter baking! My daughter's birthday was yesterday so I made her German Chocolate Brownies and Orange White Chocolate cookies! The house smelled so good! Especially with that wood stove going..
