  I've entered the embarrassing stage of pregnancy - let's have a laugh :)

  so as you get farther along in your pregnancy and you get bigger and bigger, certain bodily functions are hard to control.

  the other day my husband, son and i went out for a nice lunch.

  we were dressed up and really enjoying ourselves, when it happened.

  "Amish - Out of Order"...Have you watched this show???

  by freshstart in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  it comes on the national geographic channel and it's about young people who choose to leave the amish faith/way of life, the backlash from their families, and their adjustment to the "outside" world.

  it's fascinating for me to watch.

  some of the experiences are unique to amish, but so much of it is similar to what people feel when they decide they no longer want to be witnesses.

  Science and the supernatural - thoughts and opinions wanted

  i definitely support science, i think that the entire field is fascinating.

  the things that have been discovered and that will be discovered in the future is mind-boggling.

  i do wonder, however, if there is some things that science can't explain.

  i was just thinking about all the fear i had when i was a kid that i would be attacked by demons if i wasn't careful.

  i mean i lived in absolute terror over it, so i'm going to reminisce about the things i was told were demonized and you can add to the list if you'd like:.

  What the hell was I thinking?! Stupid me!!

  by freshstart in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  so my husband and i have a son who will be 2 years old next month and i really wanted him to be socialized more.

  ever since we stopped going to meetings, we have been pretty much shunned even though there has never been an "official" reason for it (df, da..).

  i am terribly introverted, so it's difficult for me to get out there and talk to people but our son is a people-person and i wanted him to have more peers to be around.

  Why the hell do I feel like this suddenly?!?!

  by freshstart in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  today i saw a friend that is still a hardcore jw.

  she knows we're not going to meetings, but seemed pretty cool with it and was willing to have lunch with me, so i thought why not?

  she mentioned something about the convention coming up in a couple of weeks, and all of the sudden i got so nostalgic and felt like maybe i wanted to go.
