  i am not posting this to justify my actions, i am doing so for the benifit of any witnesses who are unsure about there feelings toward the "truth".

  i was a reguler pioneer for about 8 yrs, back when it was 100 hours a month, befor thet i did a couple of yrs as a vacation pioneer, they later changed the name to auxilery pioneer, and during the following 20 yrs i had a few intermitant spells as an auxilery when i had time to.

  during my pioneer years i have given talks at circuit assemblies and had assignments at district assemblies .

  Welcome Londoner,

  you summarized what we all have gone through as we pass on in our life:

  I feel my life has been wasted, taken from me, yes I am bitter, I still lose sleep over it often, but I am slowly starting to feel a heavy weight has been lifted from my back.

  Give yourself time to grieve, heal and move on. Someone first suggested to me when I came here that it will take at least 2 years before you really feel "deprogrammed". So take your time, start looking at what really interests you and your wife. There is no hurry for anything anymore and don't be anxious to live all the things you think you missed out on. Just learn to love the life you have and who you are now. It will be ever changing.

  Looking forward to hearing from you again.

  Glad to hear you have a job interview set up, Inkie.

  Nothing throws like being fired. Keep remembering how long you have worked and that you are a good worker. Don't let one a$$hole cloud your opinion of yourself. Remember he's an a$$hole.

  btw, you didn't answer my question.

  jon and i need a vacation.

  we got married in vegas and that was the last time we got away from everything and had fun (3 1/2 years ago).

  we live in orlando, so i suppose at any time we could do vacationy things, but i'm thinking i want to do something or go somewhere out-of-state or at least out-of-city.
