good morning folks.
before i get into contention with anyone today i wanted to wish you all a wonderful day, week, month, and year.. after being pretty depressed this weekend, and into this morning i'm feeling better.
two things lay behind this; i went to mass this morning, which is almost always a pick-me-up; and i start instructing a new class today.. the depression was just as a result of dealing with my wife and her mental illness.
Good morning to you and have a great day.
I feel great too, I went on a diet last week (the popular cabbage soup diet, I wanted to lose quickly, as I put on a little over the holiday season, too much drink and food) I lost 9 pounds and my dress pants are fitting marvelously on me today. So I feel great too.

there is always some celebrity out to prove that no amount of money, hired image consultants, and famous designers dying to give you free stuff, can buy you good tastes.
i submit the following.. .
THAT WAS JUST DOWNRIGHT GROSS! WHAT THE HELL WAS SHE THINKING? I sure hope she's the laughing stalk of hollywood.
I had better looking tutu's when I was young and in ballet.
YUCK!

hello......so this is my first time here......i have been inactive for about 6 years now.....i was disfellowshipped about 11 years ago......but lucky me they let me back in......but i slowly just "fell away" and now i guess i am just an outsider who no one really wants anything to do with......mine is actually a sad story of rejection.....some one very close to me actually killed themselves while disfellowshipped......i am very bitter towards the whole thing and how he was treated.....and how i am still treated.....i guess now i am just a closet anarchist (hope that is spelt right) who secretly wishes the whole damn organization would just fall apart and disappear......anyway.....i just wanted to say hi......i am interested in everyones comments and theories in here......i have one of my own on how god is either falible or screwed the whole planet up on purpose......but that is probably not the kind of thing discussed here......i hope to check in regular and get involved in the discussions......thanks
Welcome to the board. You'll enjoy this site, find comfort and be able to blow off steam, if you need to.
Calamityjane.
P.S. My husband would welcome you too, he's xjw_b12. but he's gone to bed and I have the computer to myself, hehehe.

Welcome to the forum Jacqueline. You are here amongst friends.
You say
No one ever would include or invite me in any activities outside the Hall. (In either hall...the first hall that introduced me to the truth nor the second hall we are still in.) The sisters tell me of the wonderful time they all had at such and such baby shower, wedding shower, anniversary party, etc. Not one sister in over 2 years has ever stopped by my home to say "hi." (Other than when they are out in service and happen to be knocking on my neighbors door.)
I 'm sorry, but this is so typical of their mentality.
You say you are very happy married to the jw brother. Well I hope that continues and you have a long life together. Maybe your hubby will see "the light" and join you in time.

Welcome to the board, as if.
Much to my husband's dismay I refused to lurk. But when he sent me an interesting post from the board, I was amazed. So I finally registered, and jumped in with both feet and loving every minute of it. It's like an addiction at first. I have truly found new friends here.

Hey Dick.
As far as us not having a life. I did respond to you earlier. Got off the computer. made some lunch went shopping with my daughter, now I just got back home, I'll put putting on a big pot of soup. I've made fresh bread. Done laundry, folded and put away. Gee sounds like I DON'T HAVE A LIFE
I SURE HOPE YOUR NOT COUNTING FIELD SERVICE TIME FOR THIS.
