Arachnaphobia - I hate spiders

by ballistic in

anyone who does not the like killing any of god's creatures, please do not read this.. i just laid in bed for over an hour trying to sleep until i heard a faint noise which sounded like lots of feet scrabbling around.

for a minute i thought there were rats somewhere.

i laid there for a minute my eyes darting around in the dark and i could feel my pulse going.

I couldnt of flushed it down the loo, Id have a phobia about it crawling back up and biting me on the bum

LOL! This is me. I have terrible arachnophobia...always have for as long as I can remember. Spiders truly terrify me to the point where I've started hyperventilating. (That particular time, Mozz and I were canoeing on a lake in Oklahoma and we ran straight into a HUGE web.) I was so scared all I could do was gasp...I couldn't even scream.)

When Mozz and I got married, I told him he was the official spider killer of the household. He agreed politely with a smile. I thought, "Wow, what a great husband I have. My Knight in Shining Armor! He'll protect me." Little did I know, he was just as terrified of roaches as I am of spiders. The first time I found out was when we moved into our new home last summer. (We have HUGE roaches (waterbugs) in Dallas. They aren't an infestation, but occassionally, we'll get big ones...two inches long or more.) From the living room, I saw my husband jump on the kitchen counter and scream like a little girl. I couldn't figure out what was wrong...I was really alarmed. Until I saw a roach on the floor by where he was standing. LOL! So much for my "knight"...it was more like the Fair Maiden. LOL!

Andi- You have a jedi, kung fu san su, warlock wyckerman in your past. Damn girl! I thought I was alone in my stupidity!!

Oh no hon. You don't have the market on bad boyfriend choices. I might not have a jedi, kung fu san su, warlock wyckerman in my past, but I do have a couple "recovering" alcoholic, cocaine dealing, money squandering, gambling addict, identity stealing thieves in my past. It took me several tries to realize I was standing in the "stupid department". LOL!

That's what Mozz says about me. Now, I shave regularly and wear deodorant, but I'm all for not wearing make up when I can get away with it. Wish I never started, but now that I have, I feel like I have to stick with it.

here's my girl jocelyn, the only girl i will ever have.

she's turning 8 today and i'm baking her a cake.

my sister is sending her the complete set of the chronicles of narnia and my mother is sending her a box of mrs field's cookies (mom is such a good jw .

I think she's beautiful too. My husband told her just last night that he thought she was beautiful...I am so glad he thinks so too. I remember my father telling me that I wasnt pretty, I dont want my daughter to feel that her parents dont love her and think that she isnt special in our eyes. She special cuz she's mine.

Mrs. Jones you have a gorgeous little girl on your hands. And Kudos to you and Mr. Jones for realizing her beauty. I think that's what's wrong with many women today...the parents never really tell their child how beautiful they are...inside and out!

I really look forward to having a little girl someday. I can't wait to see her wrap her daddy around that baby finger.

I hope little Joycelyn had a great day!

We Have Wonderful People Here

by Sparkplug in

i have to tell a story.. yesterday i begged my boss to let me leave work to go to reunion arena and try to find a child or a mom and child to take in.

then i bugged the heck out of six of nine to go with me because i was not sure what i was getting into and did not want to go alone...though i would have.. so we went to the store and bought 100 dollars of items.

well i went over budget and six paid another 100 for the rest of the items.

Wow. I missed this thread originally. When I found Dooty's (actually Doo-da's) mom, I told her if she didn't come up quick to take her baby, she was gonna have a fight on her hands. Between Mozz, Six, Sparky and I, we were gonna have a leg-wrestling match over who got to keep the little girl. LOL! She was a doll baby to say the least. And smart! Smart as a whip. My MIL gave us a little hand carved children's bench, which we donated to Dooda. When we went to visit a few days later, she pulled Mozz across the room by his hand and MADE him sit down and color with her. You can tell she's used to lots of love...she loved to hug and kiss and be loved on. When you held her, if you tried to put her down, she'd latch her little legs around your waist and wouldn't let go. LOL. I miss that little kiddo. But at least she's with her momma and daddy again down in Beaumont, where she belongs.

The other sad story behind this, is Dooda is the third child her momma has had. Her first two daughters (still little) died in a fire in 2002 in New Orleans, the year before Dooda was born. Can you imagine? Having lost two children to a fire and then not know where your baby is at during an evacuation process like this? When I finally talked to the mom, she was in hysterics knowing her baby was okay. It broke my heart.

I actually just spoke to the couple about an hour ago. They're doing okay for now. There was a job fair at their apartment complex and they applied for a couple jobs today. They don't have the baby anymore, so it'll be easier for her to get a job. They're still having a hard time emotionally I think...she was real teary on the phone. FEMA said it will take them 5 - 6 weeks before they get their emergency aid check cut, so they're stressing about lack of funds. The couple is finding that a lot of people don't want to hire evacuees as they have no ID or SS# to do a check on. Sad. I wish I could help more, but this one is a little out of my league and financial pocket. We take groceries when we can, but I can only imagine the depression I'd be in.

Keep them and all the other evacuees in your thoughts. (Marla, Dee, Bryan, Bigboi and thousands of others we don't know.) Even if their immediate needs are covered, there is still a lot of recuperation financially and emotionally, that needs to take place.

Should I get Disfellowshipped? (sorry, it's excommunicated, now)

my mother and i have been baptised, and we both faded.

without a try from anyone, elder or other to get us back.

the thing is, my father is still in.

I know, but it hurts me so much to see him part of this religion, he's messing up not only his life, but his wife's, his two grown up daughter's and two young son's. If it was only affecting him, I wouldn't object....

It is getting very frustrating to hear the same parroted answers again and again...that's why we came to the conclusion that what he needed was something that would really rock his whole concept of good and bad.

Is he really "messing" things up in y'all's lives? Everyone in the family knows he sticking his head in the sand and not researching...just let him believe what he wants. Why rock his world when he's not ready? As much as I hate seeing anyone stick to the JW beliefs, I think it more cruel to do what you're suggesting. It's his life. Let him live it. Nobody handles things well when they're FORCED to see something they aren't ready to see. I imagine it doing more damage than leaving him be. Why not take a a different approach? Love him, love him, love him! Accept him for what he is, spend time with him, talk to him, snuggle with him, take him to family dinners, movies, walks in the park, etc. Eventually, he'll realize his "worldly" family life is so much richer than the dull JW life. Who would want to pass that up? Give him an ultimatum? May just drive him further into the JW life.

VITAMIN C TRANSFUSIONS

by badboy in

jw
friends

.

i understand that vitamin c intravious transfusion into a cancer sufferer's bloodvessels may improve a cancer sufferer's condition(it may not cure them).

what would the wt position be on this treatment?.

Billygoat

My first thought, Vitamin C transfusions would be hell on the kidneys.

But you can't overdose on Vitamin C can you? Doesn't the extra just "wash out"?

Losing My Mind

by joelbear in

jw
friends

i feel like i have been slowly losing my mind since the age of 10 or so, maybe before that.

the process seems to be speeding up.

it may just be an inevitable fact of my existence.

Billygoat

Just think of yourself as a tough exotic nut like me ... a Macadamia Nut! Mmmm. Tough on the outside - it takes 300 pounds to crack the shell; but oh so Yummy on the inside, and only grows in the tropics and sub-tropics! Primary plantations are in Australia and Hawaii! Pure heaven.

I like that! I'm a nut too!

I just had a bit of an epiphany on the elevator.
I am extremely claustrophobic. I do not like being closed in.
I think this exists for my mental and emotional states as well as my physical state.
This exchange is helping me a lot. Please keep it coming.

Joel, I'm not claustrophobic, but this reminded me of my latest epiphany - emotionally I can be claustrophobic. I have a really hard time with abusive authority figures. I can handle authority figures when they've garnered my respect, but when someone is controlling, selfish, two-faced, abusive, and expects everyone to respect them without them earning it...I harbor resentment until it boils over. (Reminds me of my father, so of course I have an issue with it!) I have a tendency to lash out at that point. Never to my benefit. I'm trying to see now where my "triggers" are with certain people and be very careful about my reactions. I can't control them, but I can control ME.
