    i am literally gobsmacked!
    and measurably relieved.....

    this is the day after the memorial
    (or as WTWizard would say:
    the reject jesus party!)

    going about mundane business
    i have run into 2 JWs, and not a
    peep out of either one, except for
    brief pleasantries.... none of that
    conversation killing pap about
    "we missed seeing you at memorial"
    yada yada ad nauseum....

    maybe it was the deliberately
    brief opportunity, as i barely
    stopped walking either time....
    but i have to tell you i was amazed
    to have gotten away so cleanly....

    oh, and as a PS....

    both times i know i was
    sporting a big smile as
    my youngest kid JUST
    got his temps (driving permit)
    this morning and it was just
    a good day... hope they get it
    that most of us are not languishing

    My husband was asked all week if he was going or not, he went. No One asked me if I was going. When my family finds out I missed my first ever since in utero, I think it will be a turning point and the shunning will begin. I hope you are out Scott free Chickpea.

    did they do some sort of mind control thing last night.... two out of three sets of dubs ignored me outright and the 3rd one smiled and waved but kept going...in the same restaraunt....

    guess if I miss one its not a big deal...two years in a row..I must be off the reservation....good riddance to them.

    no more kool-aid: it surely felt scot free....
    this was the 3rd year i was not at the KH,
    altho that first year i attended a KH in canada....
    and realized i could not do "this" anymore...
    sorry that things are looking bleak in your sector, mate

    snakes, i dont know what to tell you...
    i have missed 2 outright, including having
    said last year to the very woman i saw today,
    when she and her fleshly sister specifically
    invited me to last yrs waste of time.....
    "my family is doing so much better not
    marinatiing in that doom's day atmosphere"

    i suspect there is a change in the wind....
    ad if there is, i will post about it....
