    Wow. Wow. Wow.

    Hello all.

    I used to post here LIFETIMES ago, and I just recently came back and read some of my old posts. Very interesting!

    I am Katie, I used to post as airwlk149... (I couldn't remember my old password or email used...)

    It's funny the curves life throws us, and sometimes how we make a full circle.

    I am now 23, I just moved back home to live with my parents after being in an AWFUL witness marriage. Looking back, I can't believe I was ever that young girl. I know I am speaking very vaguely, but if you were to know me then, and know me now- it's amazing the difference. And, yet, how I am so the same.

    I am not disfellowshipped. I have not been since I was at 16 and reinstated at 17. But, currently I am "reproved" and not "scriptually free" to re-marry, though my soon to be ex cheated on me, the elders need more proof than they have (they have enough, they just are being jerks...) I do not call myself a JW. There is so much hurt, anger and pain related to it.

    Well, enough of this babbling. If any of you remember me from 5 years ago, let me know. I am going to start posting here more.

    Oh, and if you have ever been wrongly DF'd, and have hurt and pain related to it, listen to that song, "Not ready to make nice" by the Dixie Chicks. That's my song to the elders.

    Hey welcome back Katie!

    Well, enough of this babbling. If any of you remember me from 5 years ago, let me know. I am going to start posting here more.

    I remember you! Funny story about you and me in chat here on JWD in my early days of the forum I used to go into chat just to get to know some of the people here. I was very scared to be here my first few months on the board so I wouldn't post I was afraid to be found out so I didn't post but would just go into chat. Then people started calling you Katie (which is my name too) and I freaked! I thought I was busted! LOL I left for a while but couldn't stay away then I figured out your name was the same as mine, whew!

    I have told this story to a few others one being my now husband who I met here on JWD and by then you had disappeared and all I could remember about your alias is that it was skateboard related, LOL. Now I don't feel so crazy.....you do exist!

    Glad you're back and I look forward to hearing more from you!
