  How Many are Single? How Many are Looking?

  i find myself finally becoming accustomed to the fact that i am single again.

  i am no longer thinking in couple terms and i now cook to please only me.

  it's fun and scary all at the same time.

  Single, not actively looking, but would not be upset if I met someone. I get tired of doing things alone. But with my youngest son's problems having a relationship could be hard. Most men I know would not be able to handle some of the things my son does. Especially in the mornings before his meds kick in. (had a really bad morning today, this is only the third day of school. And he really woke up in the wrong universe this morning.) So I am not real hopeful, but would like to meet someone. Pam

  on bank holiday monday just gone, a dear kind older couple in the cong decided to take me and my good lady out for a slap up meal, to try to cheer us up after the recent upheaval in our life.

  somehow i ended up with the bill.. anyway, this was the local italian trattoria were we often go, and are on first names terms with the staff and quite a few of the other regulars.

  big mistake!!.

  I never prayed before meals. Neither did my mother. But when we were at family events, and especially if our non jw relatives were there my mom made a big deal about getting my bil to pray. It was always so dumb. My parent support worker (someone to talk to about my son) prayers silently in resturants all the time. We went to burger king to just for a snack, and she had to pray before she ate her apple pie. I always feel funny, because ususally we are having a conversation and then she has to pause and bow her head. Does any remember going to jw picnics and things and the long prayers they would give, it was always so hard to keep my oldest son away from the food. We would stand there and wait impatiently for the prayer to get over, while the flies were having fun on the food. Pam

  When I was a kid, (1970's) women were told to stay. My mom did even though my step father abused her children. The elders told her to be a better wife. Later in the early 90's it was announced at an assembly that a woman could leave if she was in phyical danger. I was so mad. I pointed out to my mom on the way home that if they had said that years ago we would have been happier. This is so sad. It seems so easy for jws to kill themselves and their families. I guess they figure the family will be brought back in the 'new world', and as for them being dead is probably easier to stand than being alive. Pam

  My oldest son was the same way when I decided not to go back. He was 11 then. I remember him saying "I never listened anyway." To this day that is what he says. He is 20 now. My youngest son was only 3 when I quit going. My mom has dragged him to a few meetings but he says they are boring, and as he can not sit still she always leaves early because of him. She finally gave up taking him behind my back. I was difinately harder on me than it was on my son. He is very smart and always seems to know what is going on before I do.

  just curious.

  i went to the 3rd church that i've ever stepped foot into after leaving the borg 3 years ago.

  so, as i'm standing there (in the front row, i might add) for the musical worship portion of the service.. i felt like a big idiot.

  The only thing I really loved about the church I used to go to was the music. The pastor used to be in a rock band. They were loud and it was great. But I don't miss the KM, they are sad little songs that never got to grow up.

  Alert: Women and Men who Care!!

  this is part of a fundamentalist "war" on women's rights, in my opinion.

  i'm trying to get the word out to as many people as i can.

  this just came across my screen.

  Why does non of this surprise me? I used to like Bush, but lately I am becoming sorry that I voted for him. He seems bent on dragging the country backwards.

  would you have any sorrow for being wrong???.

  i, personally would not.

  Who would want to spend forever with narrowminded, mean spirited people like my sister. I would rather be nothing than have to look at her forever. In fact when I was a jw, I used to think that dying and not feeling anything would be better than not being good enough.
