SLOAN, I actually do like him, just wondered what he got into. I have a 16 year old cat that doesn't do much of anything and about a week ago this little orange kitten got dropped off here. He's kinda like your cat and we keep saying "What the hell is that crazy cat doing now?" The old one hates him. els

Randy, I think your email is great. My parents don't have a computer so I have been thinking of sending them a postcard every week with just one question or comment on it. Just some little thing to make them think. it might make them angry but they aren't having anything to do with me anyway so what difference would it make.
For some reason your name sounds familar to me. I grew up in Granville, NY which is just over the border from Vermont, about half an hour from Rutland. We usually had our assemblies in Vermont. My maiden name was Elsie Shaw. I was born in 1960 and was a witness till 85 or so. Sound familar? els -

I AM SAD AND NEED SUPPORT
by Scarlet inmy family has decided to shun me.
last week my brother and my husband got in a heated debate and finally my brother asked him why he doesn't believe in the jw's and he said because there religion is based on a lie.
well my parents found out and now have decided the best thing to do is shun me.

Scarlet, I totally understand how you are feeling. My entire family started shunning me at the end of June. I haven't seen or heard from any one for over 4 months. The first two months I cried all the time. I didn't want to get out of bed in the mornings and nothing seemed right in my whole world. It has gotten better though. This place has been wonderful. It helps so much to know others are going through the same thing. Most days now I'm OK, I actually enjoy life again, although I still have times when I'm extremely angry or sad. I was driving home tonight after a long and busy shift at the restaurant and I thought "I'm so tired" and just for a split second I thought about calling my mom and whining a little. Then I remembered and I cried the rest of the way home. Then I got on here and and started reading posts and some are sad but others are happy or goofy or something else and I have forgotten about being so sad. Hang in there, email me if you want, my address is in my profile. ((((((Scarlet)))))) ,els

Metatron, I totally agree with you, you get back what you show your children. I won't say mine are perfect but they were not raised as witnesses and they are pretty incredible. What's interesting is that just before things happened this summer and they started shunning me, my mother and my sister (both avid JWs) told me that my kids were the kindest and most respectful of all the grandchildren. I was actully amazed that they would admit that. I remember when my kids were little and my brother was criticizing how I was raising them, I told him to wait till they were grown and and then we would see. Well he hasn't seen or heard from his son in two years and his daughter just moved away to be with a wordly guy. I guess we can't compare notes though cause no one is speaking to me. els

I'm a waitress at a Italian restaurant/pizzeria. I was the headwaitress till I had a huge blowup with the owner this summer and told him I wasn't going to do it anymore. My job is much easier now but I'm still working on my top ten waitresses pet peeves list. els

gumby, Thanks so much, but really you shouldn't have. No, really, you're too kind. Thanks anyway, but I'm sure someone else could use it more than me. els
