  Totally understand that! I just had to tell you how I chuckled while reading the last sentence about your aunt. I read it "moron" instead of "mormon". I had to do a double take. I guess it's too early for me to be on here! Kitten Whiskers

  a 1st grade school teacher had twenty-six students in her class.

  she presented each child in her classroom the 1st half of a well-known proverb and asked them to come up with the remainder of the proverb.

  it's hard to believe these were actually done by first graders.

  A horrible scary thing happened to my daughter. You won't believe this

  my daughter was on her way to work last week and stopped for a milkshake at a fast food restaurant.

  they were caught on tape using the slop bucket they used for cleaning bathrooms etc.

  to empty out the milkshake machine while they cleaned it, and then pour the milkshake mix (in the contaminated slop bucket) back into the machine.. apparently there was also a group of kids from an after school program that had a party there that same day.

  I am thankful she seems well now and can proceed from here to better health. I am scared to death for the other kids though and any little ones exposed to this! Kids with any problem could be having severe reactions. Did her doctor contact the hospitals or whatever needs to be done so that diagnosis can made for others who might wonder what in the world is happening to them? Of course the company doesn't want her to say anything! This is the kind of story that belongs on the 6 o'clock news to alert the general public!!!!! Anyone could be poisoned by this! I swear more and more I try not to think what is going on in the kitchen when I eat out. It is so scary! I love it, yet I wonder what I am risking. You know they don't handle food as carefully as you do at home. And as my kids say...The most important ingredient is love!!! Edited to add: oops! I read this so fast and just went back to reread the story. It was on the news. The public WAS warned. Sorry. It is just so upsetting when these things happen. I should take a minute before I comment! (Add embarrassed face here!)

  So sorry honey! You are so sweet and you have had it so hard with your mom. She sounds like she's about to lose it and go bonkers! That's how I felt right before making my break from jws. Fear is a major factor in the whole mind game of this cult. That is hard to conquer. I wish you and her all the best. You need sanity and so does she. I hope she finds her place and you are at peace when she does.

  what is the deal with this?

  it seems i hear more and more about some jw woman who is a massage therapist.

  i can't think of a more unseemly occupation for a jw woman that is legal.

  I understand what you're getting at with this question. I've wondered why one woman "sister" in my old hall took up the profession, and why in the world her husband let her! She had been disfellowshipped at least twice for adultery, had split personalities and had made her poor husband have to go to the mental hospital for a nervous breakdown. With her history, it sure didn't seem like a smart position to put herself in.

  You rant and rave all you want! I don't think I could handle what you do. You are still sane and sound very sweet in how much you do to take care of them! You are a wonderful person, and to me, that dinner you made sounds pretty fancy! Maybe your dad would like to cook you dinner for a change?
  
  I loved "it's bs tonight" too! That is so funny! Sit down, take a breath, and enjoy the hour of peace you'll get! Hugs to you!

  That was awesome Dave! Thanks for the mini-vacation from my computer! It sounds gorgeous. They say vacation is spending a lot of money to see what rain looks like somewhere else! LOL!

  I am dying to see the pics and hear anything your Beck has to say!

  Thanks for posting this. My moms cousin was just diagnosed with this type of cancer. Basically, by the time you find out about it, there's nothing to stop it.
  I am trying to send her a card, I haven't spoken to her since I was a kid (she lives far, far away) and I want to send positive vibes. I found a card that plays "I'm a survivor". It says "You're spirited, you're strong, you're a survivor" I figure it would work well. She is taking the chemo to prolong her life as long as possible. It is a hard thing to wrap your head around. To try on their shoes for a moment, and know you will not have the chance to live long. We all live a second away from death. Every car ride is a chance. But this is different. There is no putting off living today to the fullest. There is no substitute for positive thinking. I wish them both all the peace and comfort in the world as they stare this rival in the eye. God be with them.

  Thank you for sharing! I watched the first the three, I will have to finish up later....but I am struck at the similarities and how true your words rang as I listened. It was like we were awakened in the same way (reading the surrounding scripture and seeing how it just didn't apply as the "bro" read and applied it from the platform). It was nice to "meet" you up close and personal!
