Welcome BM

Ah gee, THANKS doofdaddy! You make me sound like a big poo-poo! Obviously, you have never worked in a nursing home!
Thank you for the welcome anyway!

VCR?!
I remember what a creepy feeling I got when I first logged on to Freeminds. LOL! The hair was standing up on my arms!
It all seems so silly now.

Wake up and start thinking for herself and making her own decisions. Join JWD and start posting her opinions.
Nah, not my Mom. She's 74 (I think). Doesn't own a computer and probably never will. I've tried to buy her one. She's probably afraid that APOSTATES will come out of the speakers or something.

I'd love to see some big a$$ sea monster crawl out of the Atlantic Ocean and take a bite of Bethel. Preferrably the part where the gov bod and all their henchman reside.
OMG! What would my mother do without all those old farts telling her what to do in EVERY aspect of her life?!

Thank you Legolas! Yes, I'm still in California. I miss Missouri A LOT, but I'm stuck here.
Momofmany, How many do you have? I have three.

Gretchen... thanks! I use the term "bite me" quite often. It was all I could think of when I registered.
Stillaex... thank you for the welcome!
Confused... Yeah, It was like a big weight lifted off of me when I realized that I wasn't going to die at the big "A" just because I wasn't a JW. Then I realized that I WAS going to die eventually... still working on what I'm going to do about that. Been thinging about Christianity for a long time. Just don't know... I'm a realist.

Rising gas prices, field service, meetings

i recalled the other day how several years ago my wife tacked on over 60k miles in about a year and a half on one of our cars while pioneering.

it still makes me ill thinking about it.

then i began to wonder how the recent gas price surge is affecting normal field service activities and meeting attendance.

I wish I had a nickle for every hour that I counted as "service" when I was really banging away at my regular-pioneer girlfriend.

Holy crap!
And I thought I was bad!

I grew up in a "divided household" in Missouri. I suspect my mother had post partum depression when JWs knocked on her door. She fell for it hook, line, and sinker. I was raised having to go to EVERY meeting. I remember my parents fighting over religion when I was little. My dad finally just gave up and let her have her way. My mom was ALWAYS trying to get me to study the "publications" more. They just bored me. She started reading them outloud when I was in the room. It drove me NUTS.
I was baptized at 16. Pioneered at 18. Moved to Arkansas in search of a "mate". Stepped down at 20 because my roommate found a letter that I wrote to my "worldly" boyfriend. Moved back to Missouri... then moved to California (still in search of a "mate"). Got df'd at 22, because I couldn't find a "mate" (THANK NED!).
I still believed it was "the truth" for the next 12 years. Then came 9-11-01. I thought it was Armageddon. I went on the internet the next day. I finally figured out that it was all a lie and started my deprogramming. I look back now and wonder how ppl can live that way with all that control and no freedom what so ever. There is no way I could EVER live that way again.
I've been a regular on "Tishie's board" ever since.

And so I found out...
Carla, there are other ways besides bicycle pumps.

And it'd be the most "fun" many sisters would ever have...trust me.

Oh, HECK yeah!
I used to be one of those "Lonely Sisters".
