The first time I tried to leave, I left a long letter. I thought I had let everyone down, but I just did not want to carry on. I returned to get more stuff the next day, and he persuaded me to stay. He had no idea how unhappy I was, I had to give him a chance to make things right.
A year went by, nothing changed. More miserable than ever.
He went to the TMS and service meeting. I said I felt ill, stayed at home. Packed my bags, went to the phone box and called a taxi. Shut the front door behind me and never went back.
I still paid the mortgage for two months though........mug.
My parents were not impressed to find out 4 days after I left that he had no idea where I was, and had not bothered to tell anyone. I was only 22 then.
Still have the nightmares, but I think I have turned a corner. The last time I had a bad dream, I remembered in my dream that I was married to someone new and wonderful. Maybe I'll get to the point when I can dream my new husband in to kick his ass!

There is Christmas music blaring out in every shopping centre now, it started in mid-November. It works a treat, reminds everyone to get spending. Most of it is rubbish, I feel so sorry for shopworkers having to listen to that for 7 weeks. However, there are a few tunes that evoke a really "Christmassy" feeling.
Mine are:
Fairytale of New York / Pogues w. Kirsty MacColl
Last Christmas / Wham
Simply having a wonderful Christmastime / Wings
Walking in a Winter Wonderland / Cocteau Twins (from the "Snow" EP)
and the one I hate the most is that Chris de Burgh dirge.
What are your favourites/most hated Christmas tunes?

NAME THAT CHRISTMAS CAROL
by outnfree infound this in some of my son's old school papers.
though it's quite early to be thinking of christmas, i figured most here might be somewhat christmas carol challenged and thus a long lead time for some solutions might be necessary.. the following words are alternate titles for several well known christmas carols.
fill the actual title in the space provided.

"I'm dreaming of a White Christmas" is not a carol. Good brain teaser though.

Curious about organic food? Ask Prince Charles
by IronGland inlol.
i was at the watchtower website reading the article on organic food.
under the heading of how it might be dangerous they say that prince charles of england thinks we might be overstepping our bounds into god's territory.

Oh yeah, Prince Charles of England (what happened to the rest of Britain? Scotland, Wales and N.Ireland will be delighted to learn they have been released from the monarchy). Well, you can ask him about almost anything, because he uses his status to spout off about all sorts of things he has ABSOLUTELY NO QUALIFICATION TO COMMENT ON.
Yeah, and his personal life is exemplary too.
PFFFT!

Top Five Forbidden Watchtower Subjects
by metatron inif you are an 'old timer' and wonder why the watchtower and awake.
magazines are so bland and lacking in content, it may come as no surprize.
to you that it's often because a number of topics are 'off limits'.. that is, certain subjects are so troublesome to the watchtower leadership.

The long and varied list of "demonised" things reminded me......
I knew a family who had family links in another part of Europe. One member of the family came back from a trip there and threw out all of their ABBA records, because "ABBA are demonised".
