my biological family has been shunning me ever since i daed back in 1998.. my mom opened by saying that she's been thinking about me lately and then we chatted a bit to catch up on news.
i told her about my toilet training my two cats, my recent nose surgery, my running and how things are going well at work.
she told me about how my dad had a medical issue come up in july and how it was treated.. normally my biological family will only contact me when someone dies.
That's good at least she had a decent conversation with you without the Jdub party line. I really hope she missed you and will keep in touch, I think that's all we really want is to be able to keep in touch with our Jdub families.
Keep your guard up, just in case!

a few months ago i noticed that my mum had put her house up for sale, she doesn't live far from me and i had occasion to drive past her house.. well i've had a funny unsettled feeling all week, and i drove along the back of her house yesterday, and all the curtains were gone, she'd obviously left.
feeling brave i drove round the front, and yes its empty, doesnt look like she's been gone long.
i got out and went in the back garden, and looked through the windows.
((((((((((((((((((shell)))))))))))))))))

"my girlfriend was raised jw she was'nt allowed to use the phone, and was brought up very strict to say the least.
she has a 4 year old daughter, and recently moved back home with her family were she lives in their living room.
she can't call me and our only communication is through emails, when she can sneak to the computer.
Welcome to JWD, sorry I'm gonna be no help on this one but I'm sure there will be others coming along any time now, maybe even someone that has been or is still in your same situation.
She is 33 and can't call me
This kinda of crap pisses me off, she's a grown a$$ woman not a 13 year old!

i bought one of those new fangled devices, by cuisenart...pour the stuff into a prefrozen container and watch it turn into your dream homemade icecream....not!.
it comes out soft and soupy.
if you put it into the freezer it hardens into 1000 year old glacier like material.. it tastes good, but the texture is never where you want it.
We had this crank machine with used dry ice. I've never tasted better stuff!
We had one of these when I was a kid! My dad made the best ice cream

my diehard, hardcore, zealous, door knocking ex-wife has been disfellowshipped three times and reproved twice.
i think that is a lot of suffering for one life.
if it happens again, at least they don't have a name for it......oompa

dear friends,.
much of what we do on a daily basis is routine and of no particular, earth-shaking importance.
however, after reviewing letters of family going back to wwii, it is fascinating to read what dad was doing on board the aircraft carrier in the pacific on any old day, what mom was cooking on her ever-steaming range, how i was dealing with the roller coaster of emotion at bethel [mom saved all my letters], how nana wrote that she would not study with the witnesses [per my request] but 'here are some mittens i knitted for you when you canvass new york with your magazines.
BB,
Hopefully you are on your way to VA!!! You guys have a safe trip and can't wait to see ya tomorrow.
My day is going ok, very slow.....
Have a good weekend and for those coming to the Apostafest - drive carefull

in portland maine, all you have to do is see the nurse and you can get birth control pills.
we're not talking about high school.
we're talking abot middle school!
If I were the mother of an 11 year old girl and I found out she was sexually active, I would take her to a GYN have a pap test as well as all other STD checks. I would have her put on some form of birth control that I could track to make sure she is using it properly and I would also make her aware that birth control does not prevent STD's only pregnancy!
I would not want a school nurse giving out BC to any child, that is the responsibility of a licenced MD. There are certain health problems associated with any medication and should be followed and prescribed by a physician only!
I don't think birth control encourages sexual activity; I know we don't like to think about it but kids will find a way to do all the things a parent doesn't want them to do. I did! Just a little tid bit you guys may or may not have heard - some kids now think that as long as they don't have intercourse, that it is penis to vagina intercourse they are still technically a virgin. Therefore the big thing now is oral and anal sex. There have also been reports of high numbers of STD in the mouth and throat because the don't think they can get an STD unless they have actual intercourse. Another reason parents should talk to their kids and give them the straight up on every form of sex otherwise they will be misinformed by their peers!
