FLUFF: Richie's Beach Trip Photos

by RichieRich in

friends

i went to the beach last weekend, and it was a rather enjoyable time.

naturally i took tons of pictures, and went with friends who have the same inclination.. so, for your viewing pleasure and enjoyment, here's richie's beach trip.. driving down took about 4 hours, and after about 2, we had listened to every song we've ever liked, and played every road game we could remember.. .

after arriving, we got straight to the business of enjoying ourselves, and cameras stayed packed for the duration of the evening.

Looks like you had a good time, where was my invite? Thanks for sharing the pics.

well i have moved, for real, i lived with my husband of 25 years only 3 miles from my mother and father.

it seems that most of the witnesses they preferred to associate with, have all been disfellowshipped or divorced, or separated.

they have not called me or tried to visit me for over 2 years.

Welcome to the board Dogon. Vent all you like, and thank you for sharing your story.

I have spoke once to my parents..

by mrsjones5 in

friends

in the last year.

some of you may remember a little bit of what happened last year when my family and i went to visit my parents - big fiasco, cops were called and we were thrown out - so i just had no desire to have any interaction with my parental units.

i don't call, they've called a few times to speak to the kids (they called it checking on them like i'm some deranged person).

free2think

I agree, let them do some grovelling. I think that's so cheeky ringing to talk to your children and saying they're just checking on them.

while i was in new york i walked by two men and one looked like the comedian jackie mason whom i adore.

i looked at him and said, "i just wanted to say how much i enjoy your shows.

i've seen you perform a number of times".

free2think

I've seen Jude Law and Sadie Frost quite a few times, and I spoke to him once, he wanted a chair from my table at a cafe..

I've also see Dustin Hoffman as an open air theater, he was there with his family.

Positive changes in your life since leaving WBTS

by Mrs Smith in

jw
friends

for me it's the friendships i have made with people that would have been considered too wordly to be friends with while i was still a jw.

leaving behind the guilt of never been good enough or doing enough.

celebrating the birthday of my precious children making them feel like king and queen for the day.

free2think

I feel so free, and when i do things that the dubs said were wrong i feel no guilt, which is so liberating. I can go out without feeling guilty and enjoy myself, it feels so good.
