    Hi Jodie,

    Glad to hear that you have found a "new" family. Just goes to show the difference between the conditional "love" of the Witnesses and the real caring shown by those scary, nasty "worldlings" we were so often warned about. Looking forward to reading more of your posts!

    It sounds like you are doing really well at finding a good replacement network! Hey dont worry about being too intimate - I have shared some bizarrely personal things here - it comes from so many years of suppression where I couldnt even feel safe telling the truth to my diary because my mother would read it. A good parent would try and find out why their child felt they couldnt confide in them. The JW parent resorts to deceitful SAS tactics to get incriminating information on their kid. Everything about the dubs is upside down, arse over tit!

    So how are your brother and father? Do they suffer with depression? Would they join in here - oh maybe not now you told your uber embarassing period story! hehe!

    Good having you here - I have a feeling you are going to be very popular!

    So how old is your daughter? And are you married, fornicating regularly, or doing a good job as a single mum thank you very much!? feel free o ignore any questions if they are too personal!

    Hehehehhehehee !! It's all good...

    I havn't stayed up this late in ages - I'm going to be soooo tired tomorrow... Thank Christ I don't have to get up early in the morning, mark my Watch Tower & rush to the Sunday meeting in a dress to my ankles - yippee !!

    Someone should tell those whacko's that Sunday's are for sleeping in & sleeping in only !!

    We've just finished watching the Grammies - way to go Wolf Mother !!

    ;-P

    Crumpet - My Father actually told me this morning he was feeling a little down in the dumps - he worries a lot about my Little ( but much much taller than me ) Brother... My Brother lives a few hours from us - he's only 25 & has been married, divorced, a pot head, lost his licience for drink driving 3 times, gets drunk every day of the week & gambles away ALL his money... ATM he's just lost & I reckon it will take him another few years to get his life on track, I reckon he'll be like me & start doing something about it around age 28 but like me I think it will also take a while... I worry about him also... A few years back Dad & I found him in a drunken state in his shed, standing on a chair with a rope around his neck... I love them both so much !! My Daughter will be 4 in May - her name is Alaska & she's great !! I have a 10 year old Son as well named Cameron & he is almost as tall as me !! I also have a lovely Boy Friend named James, he's a shearer, he's a bit younger than me ( 25. ) We've been together about 2 & a half years & it's all good - mostly - hehehehe !! He still lives with his family & stays with us on the weekends which is nice - I get my space !!

    Ninja - Fishing is good !! We didn't end up taking the boat out today, too much to organise so we just took ourselves & our fishing rods & a few other odds & ends out to the lake & fished for a few hours... James caught a little Carp ( over here they are pests & arn't allowed to be put back into the water no matter what size ) & a Yellow Belly which wasn't legal so back in it went... I caught a big Carp but didn't quite land it - got it right to the shore, enough to see what it was then it got off - lucky Carp !! We Fish a lot, we fish whenever we can, we are fishing mad I tell you...

    I am so tired...

    Nite nite Jodie - I remember thinking it must be like 3 in the morning where you are. This site is very addictive but mostly its extremely good for you unlike drinking too much and gambling. Do you think your brother still believes in Armageddon and some of the crap you were raised on? Because he may be in the habit of taking such risks because he doesnt believe he has a future - I was like that for 29 years. But when I learnt actually the world isnt ending I realised I didnt have to do such harm to myself all the time and there was something worth salvaging. Okay it takes a long time to get out of certain habits and I still battle but I am better now than I ever was.

    Alaska is just the most beautiful name! Why did you choose it? It just makes me feel cool and refreshed to think it - small consolation in your hot summers though I guess?

    Maybe it would be worth inviting your bro and Dad here. You dad sounds like a really sweet man so far... Has he ever remarried?

    I'd love to try fishing - we have one enthusiastic fisherman on the board that I know of - Diamondblue here in the UK. He often posts with a pic of his latest catch - although his latest catch his a lovely girl from this board and hence he's a bit absent at the mo!

    Look forward to hearing more from you!

    I was right... I was so tired this morning I just did not want to get up altho I did...

    The phone rang, which is right next to my bed & then it rang again immediatly afterwards - it was my Dad, he's going to come over sometime, I'll show him how to use the mouse as I'm sure he'll be here for a long time reading & maybe even doing some typing - hehehhe I'm not even sure he knows how to type...

    I'm not sure what my Brother believes... It's like he's in self destruct mode altho he hasn't been a pot head for around 2 years so atleast thats one thing !! He's basically disowned everyone in our family but Dad & I & he no qualms in telling my Mother where to go or how much she f***ed ( scoos my french ) his life... Where as I always try to fit in her life somehow altho I've decided I am no longer going to bother... I wonder sometimes if she ever realises how much things have stunted our lives, realises how much grief it's caused us or if she hurts herself... Does she cry herself to sleep ?? I don't know if it's worth my while to ask her...

    As for my Daughter's name... My Son's friend has a little sister named Alaska & when I was pregnant with her he annoyed me the whole time to call her Alaska which by the time I had given birth it had grown on me that much that I did... She didn't look like any of the other names I had chosen !!.

    My Dad has never remarried altho he has a GF but I'll tell you about that some other time as it's a whole nutha story ;-P

    I think it's pretty kool that Diamondblue met a lovely girl from here !! I think it'd be wonderful to have that extra thing in common that nobody but us can quite understand... I look forward to checking messages here & I look forward to gaining friends that have that same extra thing in common - it's what I have been missing most in my life : )

    See you all

    You guys rock !!

    OMG, Jodie, what a sad and funny story about your period starting. Sorry you had such a messed-up mom! A lot of us had screwed up parents . . . and some of us are okay anyway! And those of us who are not, well, that's okay, too. We're all here for one reason or another! Glad to hear you have some alt-family!
