i'm thinking this morning at the enormous effort required to leave the witnesses.
that you all found your way here is amazing.
you are a select group of strong people, who will not allow life or any organization to knock you down.
Wow! Not only am I strong but I'm pretty darn smart! Frist time I could put a check after all the points brought up. Yay me! Some of it was darn hard but in hindsight I would do it all over again only one thing different....................I WOULD HAVE DONE IT 30 YEARS SOONER!
Thanks jgnat for the great reminder you are a real gem of a person I'm honored to know you! I'm honored to know all of you!
well, i'm sitting here on what should be a meeting night (how wonderful is freedom?
) with a stiff drink.
it's been a hell of a crappy couple of weeks and many tears have been shed but i'm feeling at peace tonight (even though brother in law yesterday informed us they only want emergency contact with us from now on - can you believe they want nothing to do with our two beautiful little ones, their nephews?!
If it weren't for all you lot I don't think I would be sitting here at peace right now and feeling confident that a happy successful life was possible outside the JW's.
Ditto that!
*clink*cheers y'all!
i'm sorry.. we've all been through alot.. .
Group hug
We all need lovin'!

wal-mart announced that, sometime in 2007, it will begin offering customers a new discount item ---- wal-mart's own brand of wine.
the world's largest retail chain is teaming up with ernest & julio gallo winery of california to produce the spirits at an affordable price, in the $2 - $5 range.
wine connoisseurs may not be inclined to put a bottle of wal-mart brand into their shopping carts, but "there is a market for inexpensive wine," said kathy micken, professor of marketing at university of arkansas, bentonville.

Wine connoisseurs may not be inclined to put a bottle of Wal-Mart brand into their shopping carts, but "there is a market for inexpensive wine," said Kathy Micken, professor of marketing at University of Arkansas, Bentonville.
"But the right name is important."
Customer surveys were conducted to determine the most attractive name for the Wal-Mart wine brand.
The top surveyed names in order of popularity were:
10. Chateau Traileur Parc
9. White Trashfindel
8. Big Red Gulp
7. World Championship Riesling
6. NASCARbernet
5. Chef Boyardeaux
4. Peanut Noir
3. I Can't Believe it's not Vinegar
2. Grape Expectations
1. Nasti Spumante
The beauty of Wal-Mart wine is that it can be served with either white meat (Possum), red meat (Squirrel) or Catfish.
P.S. Don't bother writing back saying that this is a hoax. I know possum is not a white meat.

"Is this your husband?" he nervously asks.
"No, silly," she replies, snuggling up to him.
"Your boyfriend, then?" he continues.
"No, not at all," she says, nibbling away at his ear.
"Is it your dad or your brother?" he inquires, hoping to be reassured.
"No, no, no! You are so hot when you're jealous!" she answers.
"Well, who in the hell is he, then?" he demands.
"That's me before the surgery."
i learned an interesting fact from my father's doctor when he was being treated for a stroke.
mom had mentioned that even though dad couldn't speak well enough to ask for a glass of water he could clearly say, "goddammit".
the dr. explained that epithets are from a different part of the brain and this area had not been affected by the stroke.. i found this very interesting.
Was my post altered?
You know, boys, a nuclear reactor is a lot like a woman. You just have to read the manual and press the right buttons.
