after mass he asked the monsignor how he had done.
the monsignor replied, "when i am worried about getting nervous on the pulpit, i put a glass of vodka next to the water glass.

What a shame. As if accepting a little gift from your parents would in some way be condoning their actions. She must be a good little witness.
I know it hurts, it would make me angry too. But you guys will do what you think is best. That's all any of us can do.

Hi Jessi
Glad you're here. Wow, your mom kicked you out when you were 16? That's terrible. What did your father think about that? Weren't they still together then?
I'm glad you are still able to be with your family, that helps. Stick around and get to know us all a little better. We're not as crazy as we seem.

Good fruits from this forum
by Yadira Angelini infew weeks ago, i invited my jws daughter for a formal dinner.
i asked her to bring her closest jws friends, including an elder from her kh.. i let her know that i didn't have any hidden agenda on my part.. that i just wanted to have a good time with her and that i wanted to honor her friends.. she asked me how many she could invite; i said no more than six.. she invited three.
like i said, including an elder.. my husband cooked a delicious meal for them... but just two days before the event, i started to get 'cold feet'.

What a nice post, thank you for sharing it with us. I am glad you were able to overcome your nervousness. I would have been nervous also. But many times, love does prevail. Good luck to you with this other daughter. If she is half the person BlueSapphire is, she will come around eventually. I think you're a great mom.

Do You Love Telemarketers???
by LB inok, i'm getting worn out from these guys.
i always tell them to never call again and some do take me off the list.
it seems they are getting more agressive.

Hi LB,
Yes it is annoying to keep receiving those calls. There is a "Do Not Call" list that your state should have available that telemarketers are supposed to check before they call. It doesn't keep all of them from calling, but it should stop some. I'm not sure exactly who you would contact to get your name put on that list, but call your local phone company and they should be able to tell you.
Some people even put this on their answering machines, to warn telemarketers that they are calling a do not call list. If they still call, you can report them to the agency that handles it and they can actually be fined.
Another option, one we use, is a privacy service from our local phone company. It costs about $4.50 a month, but it routes any unknown callers (which are usually telemarketers) to a message that tells them you are not accepting unknown calls. When the phone rings, if you are home, it shows you the privacy feature is activated, and when you pick up, it gives you the option of accepting the call, after you hear the name, or rejecting it, or sending it to voice mail!
I absolutely love it. Telemarketers take us off the list because of course they aren't going to leave their name and number, and they know they can't get through.It also works for blocking annoying, hell-bitch ex-wives from calling.

family, tragedy, and life thereafter(PLEASE READ)
by nappybomber inhello everone who clicked into this message.. well, my story is pretty much about "shaken faith".
to keep this short, my mother died in 1990, leaving behind 5 children.
therefore, my aunt marilyn waldron took all 5 of us into her home, and together with her son, raymond, we became her 6 children.

What an incredible story. It seems like something that should have happened in the dark ages...not now. I had my own trials in childhood, but nothing like yours.
I am glad you are going to school and still in touch with some family. I hope you stay here for awhile and that your life just gets better and better.

REUNION WITH JW SIS AFTER 20 YRS OF SHUNNING
by California Sunshine intoday is mar 25th.
ive decided to write about this and post it when im done.
dont know when that will be.

Wow Sunny
What a great story...thank you so much for sharing it with us. Yes, it's a pity those 20 yrs are lost, but if you can re-establish a connection, that would be something!
I'm glad you're proceeding with a little caution. When you've been burned as badly as you have, you don't just jump whole heartedly back into a relationship with them...wait and see how it goes.
Drloss, it was great to hear your story too. I don't really want to re-connect with my parents, but there are a few cousins who, if they called me, I'd meet up with them in a heartbeat.

Well of course we didn't go...you didn't expect us to miss "Survivor" for that now did you?
Actually, I just realized...I didn't even rate a phone call from my Mom asking me if I was going. Guess my eternal salvation wasn't all that important to her after all.

My Crazy Mother!
by Ranchette inhere i thought i was going to get through the memorial season in peace this year.. how wrong i was!.
was this supposed to be a memorial invitation?.
yesterday i got an unexpected phone call from my mom.. i said hi and asked her how she was.. she said not very good.. i told her i was sorry to hear that and that i was concerned about her health problems and asked if she had had any tests done or gotten results.. she said no thats not why she wasnt doing well.. i could tell from the tone of her voice that this wasnt going to be pretty.. she told me that the reason she wasnt doing well is because the memorial was coming up,.

Good for you Ranchette
Nothing wrong with telling your grandparents the truth...and nothing wrong with refusing to be your mom's emotional hostage.
You go girl.
My mom doesn't get all psycho on me like that...we just agree to not discuss religion. Of course, in her mind then, that leaves us with nothing to talk about. I guess how her daughter and grandkids are doing in life isn't important, you know? Anyway, we're down to an obligatory twice a year call just to see if we're still alive I guess. I like it that way.
