Princess Roller Skates!
by RisingEagle inthere was no way today was going to be a good day.
our little girl was experiencing separation issues with her bio family and spoke them non-stop from the time the car pulled out of the driveway, to my wife's work to the front door of her school.
"my momma has my...my momma gives me...my momma took me to...my daddy showed me...my daddy gave me...my daddy did..." i tried distracting her with eye-spy games which led to, "my momma saw a.." i couldn't seem to take her mind off what was bothering her and when i left her at the door to her classroom she was weeping.

Confessions of a hungry insomniac
by RisingEagle ini started thinking about this earlier this evening while reading the 'what's for dinner' thread.
then around midnight i posted on the 'did we land on the moon' thread about a 24 hour restaurant and it hit me: i'm hungry.. i'm a late night eater.
i rarely go to bed before 2 or 3 most nights and then it's up at 6 and out the door to start the new day.

Well, I'm a dad for the first time all over again
by RisingEagle inwhen i found this site i considered myself a fader with family still in the cult.
i thought that i should limit personal information so that any lurking scumbag wts reps couldn't track me and jeopardize the relationships i walk on eggshells to maintain with my family.
but something happened last night that caused me to suddenly not give a rats anal orifice what jw's think.. i got called 'daddy'.. my wife and i went through the court system in the early 90's to get her 2nd cousin who was 11 at the time, out of protective services (which was a group home for abused children).

All right, which one of you guys did it?
by RisingEagle in(j/k but i do wish to subscribe to your newsletter).
i had an interesting dinner conversation a few evenings ago with my staunch jw 'rental unit.
it started out with the usual small talk that eventually led to them bringing up the plane crash with the rbc members.
