I am finally doing what I like for a living.
I draw.
Will never make me rich...but it pays the bills, and I'm happy.

When JW parents shun their df'd children...and grandchildren
by Paisley inthis seems the epitome of "lacking natural affection".
can you imagine being a parent and not being interested in how your own children are doing?
and what about carrying it even further, having nothing to do with your grandchildren, just because the parents are disfellowshipped?

No...I can't imagine anything that my children can/would do that would make me 'shun' them...and then extend that attitude to their children.
My parents have 'shunned' us for the past 3 and a half years, and they have extended that to our children...as a result they have never even seen our last 3. Would not even recognize the 2 they have seen, now. And it's all our 'fault'...if anyone asks them why...they say that we have refused to let them have any contact with them! Totally not true...although now I would not let them within 10 feet of my kids!
My hubby's parents shunning of us is only relatively recent, as we officially 'dissassociated' ourselves 3 weeks ago! But they have limited their association with us for the past 5 years...and this includes the children...even to the extent of only seeing our 'new' addition twice in 4 1\2 months.
And something really strange...at least I thought so...was that when we told brother-in-law we were dissassociating ourselves due to numerous family reasons, he said: "But your childrens photo's are still on their (hubby's parents) walls!" ?????
No doubt they will all be removed now...as they equate religious beliefs with the privilege of gracing their walls!!! Have you ever heard of anything so stupid???

I have no idea. I have to be the world's worst cook! Even I won't eat my cooking!
(sigh... I have good intentions, but always manage to *@#$ it up! So it's cheaper for me not to try!)
Lucky for me, my hubby does all the cooking here! I think he's doing a lamb roast.

Jane Austen's "Pride and Prejudice" and "Emma."
I have these. Both were good, as were the movies.
My favourite shows are comedy shows, such as Kenny v Spenny/Balls of Steel etc. I know it's stupid, but hey...my sense of humour!
I also collect movies like 'The Notebook'...my favourite movie at moment. A real 'box of tissues' movie.

What REALLY Gets You Ticked Off???

People who go to the meetings and put a show on, then come here and bash what they themselves are involved in. Sorta hypocritical, why not just be who you are around everyone? Why not be true to themselves?
Careful now...last time I started a thread on this very topic...I got trashed!!!
