well, not next to me. my sister, shunned, moved into her first house she bought last week.
Gwen and i helped her and her husband and 4 kids (yikes!) move their stuff from storage, and from my parents house.
as we pulled up we realized that the driveway was blocked across the street by a small suv (kia) and that we had to go door to door to find its owner to ask if they could move it. (or possibly i would get enraged and drive over it anyways )
we found the house but told, they wouldnt be back till noon. great.
so we started emptying the truck. i kept looking at the car. this house is in RI, but the car had masshole (massachsetts) plates (tags).
maybe its just me but i got a wierd feeling. about this.
sure enough an hour later here comes the car group. i recognized it for what it was, though i didnt recognized the people right away. someone said one was a preist. i said, oh no he ain't, he's so-and-so from such and such congregation.
and to confirm that i asked my dad, who was in his congregation. yup he said, thats him.
great. my sister moved in next to jw's, right next door. and judging by the fact they met their for service, means they meet there on tuesdays/thursdays for their bookstudy group.
i'm not worried about shunned, because she is not afraid of them and will blast them out if they cross her path even by one centimeter.
it was just one of those erie ghostly hard to explain feelings that i had that said i knew something wasnt quite right from the minute we got there.
cant' wait to hear her storys from now on about the goings on from the jw's next door.
