I wasn't born in TX but moved here when I was 4.....so most Texans consider me a native.
I love the state of TX and didn't realize how much pride I had from coming from TX untill I left it and stayed in Louisiana for a while............I love LA..........but TX will always have my heart!!!!!
Love,
Jes
BTW we are called the "friendly state" for a damn good reason.......didn't know it untill I visited relatives up north...........god our customer service here is OUT OF THIS WORLD!!!!!!!!!!
well, my disfellowshipped friend was seeking out an older, non-jw relative who he had wanted to invite to a monumental event in his life.
he wasn't able to reach her at her home so he eventually gave up and sought out his jw parents.
in doing so, he learned that the elderly relative had died a little less than a year earlier (a few months after he had been disfellowshipped).
Thanx Ray!!!!!
Love ya bro,
Jes
howdy from tx, its been a while since i posted just thought id say hell-o, oh and by the way im vails's brother
Welcome back sweety!!!!!!!!!!!
Jes
i admit to it (as i'm spraying on my chanel christalle and putting on my make up.
spent last night tearing through vogue; my mani/pedi appointment is tonight.....).
no, "admit to it" isn't the correct sentiment.
I don't consider myself a 'girly girl' at all!!
I played football and hockey and other sports when I was growing up.......even now I love throwing the football around with my son (he is 9).
I can go without makeup.......but if I am going out I prefer to wear some.....but I dont wear base and powder unless something needs covering.
My woredrobe consists of jeans, shorts, and baby doll/tank top type shirts and tennis shoes or ankle (dock martin type) boots.
I have wash and go hair so spend little time with my hair at all.
I prefer to shower then to take a bath unless I need to soak a sore muscle or something.
I have a fowel mouth (can make a sailor blush...done it), and love to drink beer and eat pizza while watching the game.
I hate to shop!!!!!!!!!!!! It takes me literally 10mins to pick out three complete outfits if I have to shop for myself.
From showering and shaving..........to putting on makeup (if I do), in all takes me 30mins (if I take my time) to be ready to have a nite on the town.
ONE THING I HATE...........IS a man that takes longer to get ready then I do!!!!
I get my nails done every once in a while in order to keep from biting them........and I do paint my toe nails cause I hate the way they look without nail polish.....but if the nail polish cracks.......oh well........I will wait untill I have shoes that show my toes before I paint OVER them instead of removing and repainting.
Tomboy till I die!!!!!!!!!! and proud of it.......although I find the older I am getting the more "female" I act.....or at least so my son says.
Love.......the tomboy,
Jes

click here and you'll see why .
... i know i'm going to get lynched for this one !
VEEEEEEEEEEEERY FUNNY!!!!!!!!
I HATE parallel parking!!!!!!! When I took my drivers test..........the guy who gave me the test had a girlfriend that worked in a club I worked in..........so shortly into the test........we got on the topic of where I worked (stripping at that time).......he asked so I told him.......and since he had a girlfriend in the "business"...........he NEVER tested me on parallel parking.......he just wrote me down as passing. Fine with me!!!!!!!!! I scored over 90!!!!!!!
(and no there was no "funny business" in getting that 90% just a mutual understanding that I had only been awake for maybe an hr when I was taking the test since I worked nites then ).
Jes

i haven't been on this board for a while.
i've been on a conservative ezboard trying to see if we can't do something about political issues.
i've also got a new job, had to get the car fixed, been best man in a wedding, and watched the two towers on vhs.
Well..........I too was a "raised in"...........I got myself df'd at age 15 on purpose.....I just wanted out, but alot of it had to do with abuse issues or how abuse issues were "handled" while a JW.
To be honest........I had tried to NOT let the JW stuff get to me........and for 12yrs didn't talk about it much and accepted my family was gone forever.
Now at the age of 27.........I came online last yr for the first time..........and I found this place and silentlambs.org which is what led me here actually.
I never thought in a million yrs I would find soooooooooooooooo many that can "feel my pain', and from being here I have grown alot, and feel a sense of "acknowledgement" for how I felt and feel.
I wish I would have had this kind of resource soooooooooo many yrs ago.......I felt so alone.....cause I was alone.
I am back on track as far as counseling is concernd and am looking forward to "dealing" with the JW stuff in my past. The therapist I found knows about JW's and similar religions.........she even knows the "lingo", so I will have to spend little time explaining the dinamics of it all, which is a relief.
Honestly though..........I really do think since it was something ingrained in me since birth.......I will never be fully rid of it..........but it wasnt all bad........I am really good at talking in frount of large crowds for instance.
Love,
Jes

I am sorry to hear about this!! Yes..........they talk all about christian love, but don't show it!
I had something similiar happen to me not long ago...........I will summerize............
There was an elderly sister in my cong that used to give candy to all the kids and she was like everyone's grandma. I was very close to her.
I grew up in this cong since I was 4 untill my df'ing at 15.
I am 27 now and neither one of my parents or my sister or anyone else told me she had passed away.....BACK IN 96!!!!!!!! I only heard of this from 2 posters here who I have been reunited with after many yrs.
I did find out where she was buried and went to her grave alone...........just to say goodbye.......I brought some candy with me to give to her........she always gave us kids so much..........It was my way of "giving a little back", sounds corny but it brought some kind of closure to the situation for me.
If I may suggest telling your friend about this and maybe they can fine a sense of closure as well........but we all mourn in our own ways.
My mother is no longer a JW and when I found out..........I called her very hurt and angry........but I am used to the JW mentality from my family then and now........still hurts though.
Thought I would share and maybe give your friend a way to "close" a chapter in his/her life.
Love,
Jes
