Funny story
by troubled mind inthis morning i attended church again really enjoyed the service .felt pretty happy .
then i went to the grocery store at noon to get things for lunch in the produce section i see pioneer sister fresh from the kingdon hell .
she actually is very nice waves and says hi thing is the woman standing right in front of her is the woman i sat by in church , and when i wave back she thinks i'm waving at her so she says, " hi , boy it didn't take us long to change out of our church clothes " (as we were both in shorts now ) wonder what conversation will be in the car groups this week my husband and son laughed their butts off when i told them .

Visit from JW relatives went better than expected
by troubled mind inwow miracles never cease to amaze me .
i was not bombarded by mil like i thought i was going to be .
thought they were going to pry into why we are no longer going to meetings , they went by themselves while here and didn't even ask us if we wanted to go too .

Husband has a sense of humor
by troubled mind ini've been a bit on edge with his jw parents visiting in town (not staying at our house at least ) .so tonight ( while i'm out ) his mom calls after the meeting to talk to me about plans tomorrow.
he tells me he told her i was up at the bar getting wasted and singing karaokee !
( which was only partly true ) .....then he says he is just kidding he really just ignored her when she asked where i was .sheeez sometime for him to get a sense of humor.

Curious how Witnesses continue to think they can control your opinions
by troubled mind ini made a comment on facebook a few months ago after attending a witness funeral .
i said i wished the memorail had been more about the deceased and less of a sunday public talk .......well that went over like a lead balloon ......a jw messaged me that she couldn't believe i said that !
i should know better and that those in attendance needed the witness of the resurrection(even though they were all witnesses there) but what amazes me is the lack of respect for someone elses opinion .
