Call your local cable co. They have many different sizes you could chose from. They are glad to get rid of them or they will have to break them down.
They are called cable reels.

Hi you all.
by chrissy innew to the forum & simply introducing myself.
i've enjoyed reading some of the posts here.
it is so nice to know these forums exist for poor ex-jw girls that suffer from post tramatic sheltered-from-the-rest-of-the-free-world syndrome.

Good Morning and Welcome to the Board Chrissy.
Hang around here long enough and the Boogyman should be a thing of the past. I used to be afraid too, not anymore. It feels so good.

Angry,
copy and paste this link. There are 7 James Blankenships listed in South Carolina.
A Zabasearch.com pulls up 103 James Blankenships in MO, 27 in SC and 79 William Blankenships in MO. You would need to do the search to see if any may ring a bell. Good luck.

You could maybe start hanging out at a fun, friendly church that has a singles group. That could get you knowing people on a fun level and work you into a little bit of a social life. You would find females and males all in the same boat, a chance to work on your social skills first. You could gain some confidence. Everyone has a someone. You just haven't put yourself out there to find them. The more you do it the easier it gets. There are alot of people like you who want the same things you want, go find them girl.
I know thats easier said then done. I really do understand your loneliness. I've been married 25 years and some of those have been the most lonely years of my life, so having a partner doesn't always fix it.
No one will care for you more then you care for yourself. Take charge of you. Learn to be happy with you. Learn to love you for you. Use some kind of a group for practice, then narrow the field. What ever it is make it something you would like to do or already like to do.
Go get em.

The Awakening
by Cygnus inas many of you know, i have had some severe emotional issues the last couple of months.
repression from growing up jw and being so damned responsible for all my years and setting aside emotions....... now the emotions are finally kicking their way through the door and coming out with a vengeance.
i found a piece on a website devoted to anti-depressants and i normally don't do this but i thought i would share it with the board.

Thanks for posting that.
I have copied it to hang onto. I can feel the Awakening in myself, but have hit the snooze alarm a couple times.
