I am, I am!! Are adults dressing in costume as well? Please let me know. Looking forward to meeting everyone. But I'm shy around groups of people and tend to over drink to hide my inadequacies. So forgive me if I wind up with a lamp shade on my head!

hello this is my first post and i wanted to introduce myself so here goes.. my name is lainey, and i have not been to the meetings for about 4 years now.. i am 28 and work as a doctor in a big city university hospital as a sho.. also for my sins, i am cassies little sis, and i am staying with him for a little while, as i am signed off sick for the next month with a stress related disorder.. after the death of my older bro and my dad within the past few months, i started suffering from terrible nightmares, most of them connected in some way to my witness upbringing.. me and cassie have talked for some length and he suggested that i spend some time having a look on this site and meeting others who have had similar issues to face in life.. i hope you are all are better listeners than cassie, who tends to fall asleep when i am in the middle of talking to him.
(brothers!!!
) btw he hates being called cassie lol.. anyway i am not a big talker, so i probably wont post a lot, however i am going to scout around for a while.. thanks .
Welcome, Lainey

i am a long time lurker who is finally ready to talk.i am not dfd or da but just walked out on a meeting back in 1981?
?what caused it???.
it was the flip flop in the disfellowshipping rules regarding family.
Welcome to the board.
a couple of years ago i was part of an on-line writers group.
a few of us got together and wrote an anthology of xmas stories called tales of christmas.. i wrote a story about my first xmas after leaving the dubs.
the book is being published.
CONGRATULATIONS
Now you're officially a "Publisher of the "good news!" Way to go! and good luck with your new shoes.

today i helped bury a friend, and in a few minutes i'll be leaving to attend the wake of another, who died yesterday.. i have less than a handful of friends from pre-exjw days (nothing new there - we're all in a similar boat, i'm sure), so my more recently acquired friends are precious to me.. for those that i count as friends (which obviously includes a number on this board), please let it be known that you are precious to me.. i've helped bury about six, during this last year (i hope that doesn't put anyone off from befriending me).
every one has been like a hammerblow .
regardless of beliefs, or lack thereof, death is still an enemy to the living and the dead (imho).. with that sombre note, i must away....
((((((LT)))))))
I'm sorry for your losses. Death sucks.

i have a pre-op appointment for lasik eye surgery on thursday.
assuming everything checks out ok my surgery will be on the following tuesday.
woo hoo!!.
In our area, there is a doctor who does surgery for presbyopia, near sightedness, etc, all in one operation. It sounds much like cataract surgery, where the entire lens is replaced with an artificial one. Is anyone familiar with this ?

what are you doing for halloween?
since leaving the jw's, has anyone gone out to halloween parties?
do you dress up in a costume?
I'm going to Joy and Steve's party also, can't wait. Haven't been to a Halloween party in over 40 years, and feeling just a bit wicked!?
Anyway, I'm going as Queen of the PLUS SIZED Celtic elves. So if you are approached by a big green blob with hair, it's only me!
