it appears we will be visiting nyc from about the 16th of dec. for a week or so.

we are going to see some long lost friends of my husband in queens and i'm sure they'll show us around, but there's also going to be alot of drinking and catching up between them and i'll have quite a bit of free time on my hands.

i don't know if we're going to stay with them or not, i've been checking on craigslist for an apt or something we could rent.

Self-rightous witnesses? no......

i was thinking about how i left "the truth" yesterday and got to wondering about the couple of sisters who were directly involved in the beginning of the end for me.

i know it was because of things they personally did to me that led me to believe witnesses were not "a lovable brotherhood".

and i know, they know of the things they did as well.. so here's the thing, i bet they don't feel the least bit guilty or even bad about it.

it's been alot of fun looking for something and decorating the house.

my family was not witnesses so growing up we celebrated everything...i remember it always as good times.

i thought this was too funny.... marines are taught:.

1) keep your priorities in order, and.

2) know when to act without hesitation.. a marine was attending a college course between missions in iraq and afganistan.

Restart your life?

this is geared more to you guys who found the truth later in life...unless ya'll can remember those happy times back in the womb.. i've been thinking alot lately about where i was and what i was doing before i became a witness.

granted it was one of the most horrible times of my life, but i could have figured out a better way to deal than become a baptised dub.. i had been planning on hiking the appalachain trail, had some of my gear, plans, etc.

and dropped it for the promise the paradise.
