  My Christmas wish for Y'all....

  i wish everyone here a holiday filled with love, happiness, warm memories and good times.

  so many of us have gone through really rough times with things that have happened in our lives, and i hope that everyone here can one day be fully healed from our pasts, so that we can go into the future happily, with full, rewarding lives, with our pasts and obstacles we have faced only being distant memories of days gone by.. i wish for a time when families join together, and not become separated or influenced by an organization, or anyone else.

  this is a season of hope, and all things are possible.. wishing everyone the bestest of the best!!!.

  Gee thanks Ohiocowboy.

  I always enjoy reading your posts. I truly like your avatar picture of you with your dog. Very nice picture. I love dogs and have a West Highland Terrier,Cookie, who is my constant companion. We have a very curious kitty named TOBY.. I too love country music, however..the rest of my family all 4 of them don't..SOOO I don't get to listen to that great music as much as I want to.

  I noticed your favourite Christmas albums... and OOHHHH, I wish, I wish, I wish that I could have those albums with Garth brooks, Vince gill etc.

  You have a great Christmas Mr. Cowboy because, well.. because you deserve to be merry and bright.

  Christmas hug

  WElcome to the forum, Faolan..alias Gadget's girl.

  Yes, tis a crazy religious cult this J.W. stuff. It's very hard to explain it to outsiders. I hope some of the information on this site can help to inform you of just how weird we J.W.'s used to be. Mind boggling..ain't it. I'm glad I'm out of the J.W.'s. but it does leave a lasting impression.

  You summed it up in this one line Franklin

  we can only hug them and grieve with them

  Sometimes that is all we can do..grieve with them.

  It is truly a tragedy when ones child dies before the parents. It's an unnatural order of events in ones life.

  big friend hug franklin,

  well, it's getting near to the time that i determined to begin a weight loss program again.

  (after the holidays).

  i am really sick of diets, and hate the idea of it all, but i have to do something.

  I just heard that someone in my neighbourhood had a stomach staple done.. but sounds really drastic to me, unless her health was so compromised that it became necessary.

  I guess then your not buying another 42 inch plasma screen T.V. LOL I mistakenly thought the T.V. was your families Christmas present.

  Actually, that sure has to be a sh...weet T.V. Very cool! The first Christmas I had after leaving the J.W.s' I made a Christmas tree out of rolled up newspaper and the kids and I cut out coloured craft paper ornaments. We were looking at the pictures just the other night. It sure was a great memory.

  The second year we moved on to a small real tree and one small gift for each of us. plus the Turkey and all the trimmings on Christmas day... That's another great memory of Christmas for me.

  I like Christmas and the days off from school with the kids and hubby. It's a being together time of year for us.

  Kick back, relax.. and enjoy your first Christmas red hot chili pepper!

  Hope you buy yourself a nice pre Christmas CD. I like Kenny G's Wishes Holiday Christmas CD, myself. Very relaxing.

  sincerely

  Now that's just cruel. but .. if you would have went to the reception they would have made you feel awful with the shunning.

  Sounds like you had your own reception. showing love, respect and reminising about your mom and the times you spent with her. That's good.
