how do i know? my kids who've been warming up to me more, have all the sudden stopped taking my calls. cancelling plans with me because of " other plans"

it really irks me that the vomit spewed in the name of god at the assemblies interfere with natural affection and healing.

i'm in my early 40s, my kids range in ages from teens to 20s and i'm an evil influence on them because i'm an inactive jehovahs witness. so evil that the society uses it's power from the platform to demand its followers avoid inactive ones. protect yourself from them. put aside your own mother , put aside your own father, put aside your own children to keep the watchtower happy.

i'm just a mother who gave children life and who had those children ripped away in the NAME OF JEHOVAH.

if there IS a god, no offense to believers here but i find him unworthy of worship in any form. if there is a god i'd love the opportunity to say that to his face. i tried for many years to seperate my bitterness of the watchtower from god. i can no longer do that. if there is a god and i truly doubt his exsistence right now, if there is a god he's impotent and uncaring.

Cooking Style....

what is it that you and your family eat?.

do you have a certain cooking pattern, or ethnic preference?.

when i cook, i make many mexican dishes - such as quesadillas, enchiladas.

candidlynuts

well when i can afford FOOD ( i'm in a poor me mood today lol)

anyway, there are just 2 in our household at the moment so i cook light.

usually a meat and 2 veggies..

best meal we've had in a while was a big ole pot of white beans with onions and cornbread

i sometimes cook taco's or quesadillas.. sometimes have a bacon,cheese and onion quesadilla for breakfast

i love fresh veggies when i can get them. its almost sweet corn harvest time here in the south. i cannot wait!

nicky on hbo's big love last night asked her husband if he missed the commune, then said, "i left 100 in this place to live with 10 in the suburbs.

" (or something like that) her husband asked if she regretted it, and she said no, but began weeping.

i watched last night

the most JW'ish comment was Adeline who said she wanted the family picture because " jesus might come before labor day"

how many times have we heard a variation of that comment?

Apparently, I'm not just heartbroken because of my mother...

from http://www.jehovahs-witness.com/6/136861/1.ashx : .

variable angina.. its when the arteries in your chest randomly all squeeze up just to piss you off.. the doctor said that this isn't heart disease and it wasn't caused by high cholestoral (mine is right on the money) and it shouldn't happen again- this was a fluke.. the doctor was really kind and nice and said that with the amount of pain i felt there's no way i should have maintained consciousness, much less been able to drive 25 minutes and then go to sleep.. then we ended up talking about genital piercings and body modification in general (my xray was lol.

) he was really kind and said pretty much, let's hope it never happens again.. .

Stomach Cramps? Medical people?

about 10am this morning i was following my roommate down the interstate (helping him move a few things) and all of a sudden, i had the worst pain i've ever felt in my belly.. the pain was between my nipples and the middle of my belly, but it was all around my body- even that section of my back hurt.

it felt like someone had tied a very tight band around my torso and was pulling it tighter and tighter.. after being in pain for only about 5 minutes, i had to pull over.

i jumped out of my car and ran over to the gaurd rail, thinking that perhaps i would vomit.

candidlynuts

it could be your gall bladder.. stones get in tubes and it HURTS. it can ease when you change position and the stone goes back into the gall bladder..if its that it can be diagnosed pretty easily. i thought i was having heart attacks when it happened to me, i was in my early 20s at the time. regardless of what it is you DO need to go to a doc and get checked out. or even better, go to a ER next time it hurts, you get better and faster diagnostic tests than your family doc.

One of my daughters had an allergic reaction to food at a gathering

by MsMcDucket in

my daughter is allergic to peanuts.

she will have an anaphylactic reaction just from a small amount.

someone made a barbecue sauce with peanut butter.

candidlynuts

i'm glad she's ok!

pepcid is a histamine blocker similar to benadryl, i had to have it before when i had an allergic reaction.

as of august 1, mr.blackswan will join the ranks of the thousands of unemployed michiganders.. they are shipping his job, along with the rest of production to grand rapids, mi.

which is 2 hours away.. my response was tears.

fear is a big problem.. michigan is just not the place for jobs right now.. so, we are planning on having to look out of state.

candidlynuts

yikes! i'd be in tears too. i'm sorry your family is going thru this right now.

here is a data base of newspapers across the usa with websites . i hope it helps
