  NEVER being able to sleep in!!!!!

  gawd I hated those bells.

  Head of the table keeping count how many mornings you missed. (I just wanted to sleep in once in awhile).

  Force reading the bible to say you got it done during entrance school.

  Hour or more commute to KH, missing dinner to get to meetings on time. Coming home after midnight and getting up early again!!!!

  NEVER getting to sleep in!!! (Who wants to sleep in on a saturday when your hubby has to get up and go to work! ppphhhhfff)

  The smug, self-rightous attitude of "elite" bethelites. (you know who they are, sat "in front" of you, according to senority)

  The out right propaganda from the GB..."the best place to be in the world" "cream of the crop"

  The only good thing was that Bethel was in NYC!!! I LOVE NYC. .....Broadway, Bloomindales, Time Square, etc, etc, etc.

  our eldest son (40) and his wife (37) are expecting their third baby in september (a "surprise" pregnancy.

  they got the results of their amnio yesterday and it is another boy.

  they have two boys, 10 and almost 4. the ultrasound had given them hope it was a girl, but had an amnio to be sure.. they were disappointed, but my dil had a feeling it was a boy all along, so wasn't too excited about a girl yet.

  congratulations Mulan's kids!!!

  *sheeeeeeeesh* now we'll never be able to put up with Mulan!

  "You don't look 40 yourself!"

  I put that in big letters so Mulan doesn't have to have her reading glasses on to see it! lolololol

  I hope the little one has red hair, too. I just love Princess' kids.

  2. family

  i have been an in the closet reader of this form for 3 months now.

  my husband posts and i vicariously live through his posts.

  i will not bore you with the details of how i became a jw's and how i left but right from the beginning, i wondered if you stopped going to meetings would the brainwashing stop or would it really be satan sinking in.

  so, how's this long weekend going for you?

  not too many out witnessing, eh?.

  i think most people take the opportunity of visiting family, but, of course, for some of us that's not possible thanks to the borg, so what've you been doing?.

  1., 2., 3., 8. & 10.

  The last time we were caught in public during the national anthem was at the Houston Astrodome, during a monster truck rally! (can you say rednecks???)

  We were hassled the whole evening after sitting through the national athem. Those redneck boys sure know how to drink loudy.

  I'm soooo glad that I will never be put in that situation again. I sing along now!

  Do you know of ANYONE who has "seen the light" simply because someone told them the WTS is full of crap?

  Nope.

  I think we are all here trying to figure out how to crack the JW shell. They are hard nuts to crack.

  And I want to live in the New System.

  ahhhh, thus the dangling carrot!

  Read True Believer

  by Eric Hoffer and you'll understand.

  Mad is good. It is one of phases we go through when we wake up to the Truth?
