my hubby is turning 40 next year.
this apparently is nagging at him pretty bad.
(not too sure why, i mean he looks the exact same as he did the day i met him!.....
I'll be 35 next year. My friend decided to have her wedding on my 35 birthday. I decided to pretend the party is just for me. I really wanted a birthday party for my 35 birthday. A real one with presents and cake and dancing and everything. I'm going to get it too. It'll just be at her wedding.
As far as turning 40 is concerned who cares. Age is how you feel. I still feel 16. I'm told I look 24.
considering that my christmas present was alive and couldn't be wrapped, i got her last friday.
the funniest thing is that she has taken up a spot under the christmas tree to sleep!
it's like she knows she's a christmas present!
Your kitty is very cute. I love kittys. I have 4 of them. Mine are all street rescues.
i just have to tell this story.
it's too sad not to.. so, this morning, i'm packing lunches and my jw hubby is standing next to me making his breakfast.
he starts sining "oh tannenbaum, oh tannenbaum" then hums the rest.
I got in trouble for singing that song. It was from Treasure Island.
BTW my last name is Holderbaum It means Elderberry tree. Weird because as far as I know berry's don't grow on trees.

red roses or leonidas belgian chocolates.
choose....
I think it's the thought that counts. I love it when someone thinks of me and shows me. It doesn't matter what it actually is.
what do you prefer bout being single than being hitched?.
(why have so many married people looked at this thread?).
mtsgrad.
I'm single. I like being alone most of the time. Being in a relationship is a lot of work. I like the sex and the companionship from time to time. Other than that I feel no need to pair off.
one of the police officers here is a transplanted new yorker who was raised as a jw by his g'ma.. he and i talk a lot about his jw experience, his g'ma, and his children (boy age 18, girl age 11).. his kids are both talented athletes (tennis) and the son won a tennis scholarship to university.
he hopes the daughter will follow in her brother's footsteps.. mr. officer mentioned that one saturday, after a particularly strenuous workout, he gave his daughter a bottle of red gatorade to drink.
he said she resisted drinking it at first, but he put his foot down and made her do it.. well, come sunday, he got an urgent message at work that he was to call home immediately.
I got my Aunt Flow at the age of 12. My mom called my grandmother and told her I was a women now. I wanted to kill her. I knew what it was and I knew it was coming. MY mom believed in talking openly and honestly about sex and sex organs. I had no confusion about anything.
I once got my period at a DC ( not my first). My parents had driven back to Cleveland from South Bend Indianna when I was about 13 or 14 to pick up my dad's paycheck to pay for the room. I got my period and I wanted to go swimming. I has my male cousin drive me to the drug store so I could buy tampons I had to ask a lady which ones to buy (my mom used super) and I was of course not informed about the diffrent sizes they came in. I had never used them before that. My Aunt found out and was mad at both him and me. She was mad at me for using them because I wasn't a virgin anymore according to her and she was mad at my cousin for driving me to the store and giving me the money to buy them ( my mom paid him back later). My mom told her off when she got back later that night. My mom was a real rebel when it came to sex ed. She told me everything from the age of 5. Mostly because I was raped at 5 and because I used childish words to describe my private parts. She insited we use proper terms. I knew how babies got born and everything.
recently i got back in touch with a da'd friend that i grew up with.
i'm going to focus on one part of her email because i think it's relevant to this board.
when i mentioned that i had been on an ex-jw website, she writes:.
I have lots of Ex JW friends who never feel the need to come to these boards at all. People I grew up with and know now as an adult ex jw. I mention these boards and they don't even feel like looking. I think some people need these boards and most do not. I'm one of the few I know who have left and come to the boards. I do it because I feel accepted here. There was a time in my life when I needed these boards for support. I came here after I was out for 7 years already. Had I not had the experiance I had with an elder on my uncles death bed I would never have found these boards. My life would have kept on going.
actually one is just a faded ragin apostate...i used my real picture on the site...so could that be trouble?
one of these babe/friends begged me to join...as she has a blast on facebook...and said it a great way to make new friends...esp with some of hers....well anyhoo...her cousin is a model/actress i know a bit who also has a burlesque show she produces and performs in....so life is good!.....oompa.

I got a message for you yesterday. I didn't know who you were till I came here and read this thread. I added you as a friend.Nice to put a face to a name on this board.
have posted this on the other thread but just making this one as well:
i need to let you know that dad passed away this morning at 8am.
he fought so hard but in the end they could not get his blood pressure to rise and he died of heart failure.
I'm so very sorry for your loss.
Oreo of course. I used to work at a chocolate factory when I was younger. They made hand dippied chocolate covered Oreos. OMG they were heaven. I loved that job because we could have all the free samples we wanted as long as we ate them while on company time. We couldn't have any for lunch but before and after were fair game.
