I just realized I was having a blonde moment. I had to delete what I posted. Wrong thread!!

hello all.... sat around the campfire this weekend and laughed our butts off coming up with jeff foxworthy type humor.
it was so funny we thought it would be fun to run a thread here... i'll start.... "if your only yearly vacation is a "trip" to the district convention...you might be a jw.".

for those in the usa and canada, today is labor day!
have a good one and lets not forget those who worked hard to change the laws to enable us to have this time off!
for those in most other parts of the world, this is equal to your international workers day.
YeeHaaaaaaa!!!!
And gonna stay in my pj's all day! While doing laundry, cleaning, etc!!
so i told you of my mom...she thinks she has mange.
chuckle here.
i get home last night and am torn up.
I'm sorry you had such a bad day, but you made me spew my coffee on the monitor!! I can picture my mother doing the same!!
Hope your hangover is better. I think, though, by now, another drink might be in order! Just kidding!

if this has already been asked, sorrry.
it seems everyday you present a different topic.
don't get me wrong, some are really good.
If this has already been asked, sorrry. It seems everyday you present a different topic. Don't get me wrong, some are really good. But, why? Are you researching something? Gathering information?Looking at your topic posts, just makes me wonder. You have only posted in a couple that weren't your own topics.

"if your first christmas ornamate at age 39 says: "baby's 1st christmas"...you might be an apostate!".
l.l.
Going along with the Santa on top of the roof, If you decorate a kingdom hall with battery operated christmas lights and LOTS of tinsel, you are an apostate! (Did that once!)
If you have the HLC thrown out of a hospital- twice, you are an apostate! (DID that, too!)
it's a long weekend so it's time to bring out a big issue, death.
i know it's something most ex-jws (at least for a while) struggle with when they exit the organization.
i think a weird moment for me was yesterday when my boyfriend's parents called.
Windchime-I'm sorry to hear about the loss of your grandmother!
Being a nurse for so long, I've had to deal with every kind of death there is. I thought I had accepted death as part of the cycle of life. But when my dad died last month, it really hit. I mean I still know it's just part of life's circle- birth, living, dying......But, that made me look at myself. I've tried to get along better with my mother. Yea, she's a jw, and gets under my skin, but I love her.
Everyone has their own take on what happens after death.
Like Tim McGraw says "gonna live until I die!"

hey all...
so many of you have given me a great big welcome to the board.
do any of you have pictures you wouldn't mind posting so i can match some faces to your name?
okay, here is the very first thing i've written striking back at the watchtower.
in no way do i claim to be a scholar or professional, just a jaded fool.
all watchtower bible and tract society quotes are in boxes and are copyright watchtower bible and tract society of pennsylvania and can be verified.
wut i don't understand about you guys is if you don't believe in the jehovah's witness teachings why the hell are you all so concerned? honestly your like a bunch of old women in a tea shop! saving bits of articles and stuff! you really need to get a life I'm not a jws but i have friends that are! they are kind and not hateful and that's all that matters!
1. Why are you on this site?
2. You don't know your friends very well-yet.
Do some of your own research on jehovah's witnesses and see what you find lurking.
you men, now that you're out of the witnesses do you still find yourself wearing neckties?
are you keeping them?
how about suits, do you ever wear them anywhere?.
The only dresses I've worn was to my wedding and my stepmom's funeral!! I don't even oen one anymore!!

an informal discussion
there was a brother who, quite honestly, was very well educated and received.
exceptional grades while in school.
I lost my childhood and innocence. I lost my family for many years that cannot be replaced. I lost my self-repect, my soul.
No one taught me about credit, and how it works. Didn't realize I needed a higher education until I had my daughter. Had no clue how to be a stable person, much less a good mother. Had no idea how to have a "normal" relationship with a friend or boyfriend/husband. Trust in myself, and others, is something I'm still battling with.
Need I go on...?
