this april will mark our 25th wedding anniversary.
music has always been a part of our relationship.
back in the day, my hubby spent a lot of time in the back room because of being a dj both at witness parties and in clubs around nyc.
I personally love this song:
Artist: Sade
Song: By your side
Album: Lovers Rock
[" Lovers Rock " CD]
You think I'd leave your side baby?
You know me better than that
Think I'd leave you down
When you're down on your knees?
I wouldn't do that
I'll tell you you're right when you're wrong
Ah, ah, ah, oh, oh, oh, oh
And if only you could see into me
Ohh, when you're cold
I'll be there
Hold you tight to me
When you're on the outside
Baby, and you can't get in
I would show you
You're so much better than you know
When you're lost, you're alone
Can't get back again
I will find you
Darlin' and I'll bring you home
And if you want to cry
I am here to dry your eyes (ooh)
You know time
You'll be fine
You think I'd leave your side baby?

I'll tell you you're right when you're wrong
Ah, ah, ah, ah, oh, oh, oh
And if only you could see into me
Ohh, when you're cold
I'll be there
Hold you tight to me (to me, yeah)
Ohh, when you're alone
I'll be there
By your side, baby
Ohh, when you're cold
I'll be there
Hold you tight to me (to me, yeah)
Ohh, when you're alone
I'll be there
By your side, baby
Or this one:
At Last Lyrics by Etta James
At last, my love has come along My lonely days are over And life is like a song Oh, yeah, at last The skies above are blue My heart was wrapped up in clovers The night I looked at you I found a dream that I could speak to A dream that I can call my own I found a thrill to rest my cheek to A thrill that I have never known Oh, yeah when you smile, you smile Oh, and then the spell was cast And here we are in heaven For you are mine At last
Of course you could alway go with a song that would excite you husband
and there is a song by NIN that would probably do that. Though, it
isn't very romantic.
dear released-from-care,.
it's a chilly 45 degrees fahrenheit outdoors and i do not wish to risk pneumonia.
i'm under the weather and brand-new sheets and feeling quite indulgent.
Oh, to sleep in on Saturday and Sunday mornings. That is an indulgence we enjoy on a regular basis. No more service on holidays. Woohoo.
We buy the occansional lottery ticket. I swear some, it still makes me feel guilty but I am not letting the guilt stop me. And we watch rated R movies without the slightest pang of guilt.

the co visit during those meetings you guys go to.
Like others have stated they really were just pep talks. However, I do remember the last pioneer meeting I went to. It was the one that they have on Friday before the Circuit Assembly. The Circuit Overseer conducting the meeting actually told all the pioneers there that we were better than the rest of the witnesses. I was horrified. After the meeting we were having dinner with my pioneer mother-in-law and elder father-in-law. We were discussing the meeting and I said that I thought that they were wrong in saying that we were better than everyone else. My father-in-law said that I was wrong and that those that made the self sacrafice to pioneer were better than everyone else. Needless to say, that was my last ever meeting. I quit shortly afterwards. It still makes me sick to my stomach when I think about it.

they have turned to the world (aka darkside ) and will end up becoming terrible horrible people !?????
well that is what one jw told a fellow workmate of my husbands .
a couple of days ago my hubby and i were looking at toys in the store when a jw( former friend of ours) stopped to chat with us .we said nothing about the gifts being for xmas (unless she over heard our personal conversation ).
How incredibly sad that they think that buying gifts for the people you love is such a sick state. I am glad that the other work mate saw the grossness of the JW behavior and was disgusted by it.
when you will have been an exjw for as long as you were a jw?.
i was raised in the jws from before the age of 10, and stopped going to the kh at the age of 31. i was involved with the jws for a total of 23 years.
i will be 54 years old by the time i have spent more of my life as an exjw than i did as a jw..
I will be 62 but that really isn't all that bad when you consider that my mom will be 118.
blondie will probably hit me with a pie for posting this, but she hasn't been feeling well for a few days and i just thought we would let her know we are hoping she feels better soon!
(could you make that blueberry?).
and to all the friends out there that are not feeling well.
Sorry you are not feeling well Blondie. I hope that you are feeling better real soon.
Loruhamah
hey all.
hope everyone is well.
we are doing great, kaia is growing up so fast already.
She is absolutely beautiful. And you are looking really great yourself.

i was reading on a jw message board and one witness posted this:.
when she comes to visit she stays at his house which is on the same street as our kh.
our brother has offensive signs about the witnesses in his front yard and every year goes all out with holloween and christmas decorations.
I received a fatal error message, so I coulndn't see the picture. But I can imagine and I wish it was me
Loruhamah
i used nice quality card-stock.
taped pleasantly to the door to greet the morning door knock crowd.
wonder if they used it for the 'daily text'?.
This is just beautiful.
