Here is a funny one..... My husband and I were 1st married...and I knew how to cook but not like one pot things!

Anyway he said how about I make Chili I was like ok thats easy. So I got everything and started to make it! Well some people make it with Noodles and some don't my husband said he wanted some noodles so I was like thats fine. Well I thought too myself this is easy as the Chili was done and I had to make the noodles and I would be done. Well I thought hey why don't I just throw the uncooked noodles in the the chili and not waste and dirty another pot. So I did! Anyone hear of Chili Caserol? Well thats what happened it sucked all the Chili sauce out. So then I was like I can't give him this. So I ran back to the store and got more sauce and extra stuff made that poured half of it into one pot and then had 2 huge pots of normal Chili. Well I said I will be nice and give some to my Mom and my Sister and my Brothers not knowing they all made Chili at the same time. We ate so much Chili it took a year before I ever made it again!

the holidays are coming, what will you be doing on those days?

thanksgiving..... xmas

whyamihere

In all honesty....This will be my first Holiday! My father and his soon to be wife our having my husband and my 2 kids over. My husband and I have only been out doing the whole "fade away thing." It has only been about 4 to 5 months now! However, we are very much against the JW religon and, will never ever be thinking of going back. My mother and my brothers and sister are very much in at this point but I say nothing. I love them and I don't want to loose them. Our choice is to give our kids happy and a great childhhod, and life ect... and being a JW is not doing that!

As of now I am in hiding but I want to give my kids Christmas and Thanksgiving and all other holiday's. I am not ready to come out of my own personal closet only a few people know of my true feelings....My in-laws whom left a few years ago(wonderful support) and my Dad(the best support I have) who also left about the sametime. I am trying to hold it together I might as well put a turley leg in my hand while I am doing it.

Lots and Lots of love to all Happy Thanksgiving and Merry Merry Christmas!

p.s. when I do come out I promise I will play the song by John Lennon War is Over during the Holiday Season!

the 2005 mustang:.

sooo cool !!.

whyamihere

My God ....I have been reading about the 2005 Mustang....and its about time they got there act together they have not made a great sport car in like EVER!

The body was great back in the late 60's I would say about 67 thats only style the body was like TIN and was horrible!

After that everything sucked about until now!

I always thought in the past they were for 40 year old women who want cheap speed nothing against 40 year old women because in 16 years I will be one!

I am just glad FORD aka Found On Road Dead got something together and made a great sport car for those who like a sport cars!

I still like the TA, Fire Hawk....also if you gert a sport car get a Stick come on please don't get an auto because it just takes it away!

Just got home from the dentist :(

by Princess in

jw
friends

i avoided the dentist for about six years.

no insurance and two small kids seemed like a really good excuse.

so i finally wenttoday.

whyamihere

I don't have any Dental horror stories!

However I will tell you this....if anyone I mean anyone thinks that went through pain come an talk to me....and if you who wants to say something about loosing a limb fine you beat me!

Well I did have a 60 hour labor with my first child 50 hours with no drugs...what is wrong with me!

But here is where it gets fun....almost a year later I was in Bath and body works and my eye sight for some damn reason was getting dark and I could hardly see out of it....it was like it was snowing dirty gray snow...thats what it looked like out of one of my eye balls! Seen Dante's Peek? Anywho I called up my eye Dr and the stupid nurse said Do you think this is an emergency???? I was like ummm no I think it can wait until next week!!!!!!!!!!!!! My husband grabbed the phone and said I need to talk to a DR with a MD after his name....So he got on the phone with him and I needed to come in right away...Well my Eye ball had a problem that needed further medical attention.....We drove 1 hour and a Half to see a eye surgeon and he said my retina from my eye is detaching which not uncommon to someone who is 80 but for me a 22year old at the time it was weird.

Well after surgery I was fine pain was horrible and it sucked. I went home the next day and I had one day to sleep. I then took care of our baby with no help because my Husband had to work and he went to school part time. Well anyway...blah blah blah! Anyway it was a few months had past everything seemed fine I was ok and my eye sight was not as good but I could see....Think again! it started doing it again...but this time I was 5 months pregnant....hello! I was pissed I went to the DR again they said by some 10% chance I had developed a cataract in that eye blocking my view....I was like alright get a lottery ticket...Well I thought and thought about surgey again they said they could do cataract surgery with me being pegnant but I could not have drugs(only one to relax me but still took a chance with a baby) I was like well if I wait it out I can't do anything I can't see to drive so I said ok lets do it. So they did numb up my eye ball as much as they could...Ha ha ha ha! I went in for 45 minutes with no I mean no drugs I had a knife god knows what else in my eye ball and I would say I will take 60 hour child birth again!

Well I hope that will help anyone with there paper cut or a cavity!

How Do You Help JWs Get Out of The Religion??

by minimus in

jw
friends

is helping people get out a goal of yours??

do you make any special effort to tell the truth about the "truth"?

whyamihere

Well as of right now I keep my mouth shut! There are so many times I want to say something to my family but I don't want to loose them at this point in time. I don't go to any meeting or service. I don't do anything that involves the JW's!

I am only 24 and I have 2 youngs kids and I do need my mom right now! I have my Dad and he has been out for a while now. Also I have my great in-laws and they have been out for as long as my Dad. And my husband and I lean on these people when it comes to the JW teaching and how we think everything is so wrong with it.

My 2 youngers Brothers at this point I think are leaning on to getting Baptized. I don't know when but I am sure someday day! I told one of them that there is something really wrong and maybe he should think about it and not just do it to be "in" or make the family happy. the 2nd I have said nothing too I know he is not stupid but right now I think he is so blind I have never seen him like this. He is a thinker I mean like a freak my god you are wasting time just say "Regular or Curly fries" kind of thinker. I hope and pray they look at it on how I do and not get baptized like I did. But those damn Elders are acting like there friends and giving them invites to there house for Dinner......by god I will say something to them before it is too late. They love our father as much as I do and I made the choice of being and talking and still have a loving relationship with him. And they must know if they want to get baptized and do what "they" want then they must Shun our Father! ....."Blood is thicker than water and Elders are like Piss and I don't want any pee on me" LOL...ok that was a little bit funny!

Right now I stay strong to what I believe in but I am not going down without letting my brothers know all facts!

old bad "wordly" habits creeping back in

by babygirl in

jw
friends

after being a jw for about 27 yrs and giving up old wordly habits...some still lurk at my door..how about you?

which is your choice of badness, i mean the serious df kind...marijuana, smoking, premarital sex, etc...anything creeping back???

?

whyamihere

You know whats funny?

I was a cool witness! I really was I did not judge people at all if they went to meetings or service or whatever I never cared about that and no should.

I didn't go to all of the meetings or out in service all the time. I was cool I had a ton of friends. JW's and Non JW's. Best JW out there was Nancy Drake and Briana. They were like me!

I guess I did judge some...those who needed a bath or gum or those who needed to get a life and stop looking at my boobs. God Dammit!

I did smoke some and I drank and I hung out with all sorts of people in school. I tried the hash. So what! I wasn't a mean or a bad person I was honest take that how you ever want it. But most of all I was fun and the party did not start until I got there!

However I was told that I should get baptized and I had my fun being a kid so I thought what the hell I guess I have nothing else to do. It will took me awhile for the fact the Elders did not like me nor thier wives but I got baptized! Blan blah blah en shit!

So as time went on my husband and I thought everyone is nuts and I went back to being me! Doing whatever and if they catch me then fine I am really not doing anything bad or what they want me to do and thats keeping my skirts lower, attend the meetings, and become stupid, go out in service all damn day, make my kids stupid, and cook and clean and say yes master to my husband, and take my lips and put it on thier ugly odd nasty saggy pale white asses! No Thanks I am full!

I am cool I don't care who you are and what you do!

by Triple A in

" for those that have not heard of the guideposts, from its own pages, "guideposts is a monthly inspirational, interfaith, nonprofit magazine written by people from all walks of life.

its articles help readers achieve their maximum personal and spiritual potential.

Serena Williams Looks like a Man!

That's all I have to say to that muscle tennis ball sport freak of a sheman!

When I look at her I think There is NO God!

She can thank Jehovah all she wants about her game...... but she need to thank a plastic surgeon who will fix her face!

Things that make you go blahhhhh(as I shiver)
