so today was my first sunday meeting that i didn't go with my wife.
as an update she has decided not to move out right now...because she doesn't have anywhere to go.
but she is giving me the silent treatment.
Oh my goodness I have just come on tonight and read the threads, I am so sorry my dear brother Dan I think we are all crying now, I can see just how many care so much about you on here, please don't give up. I have been praying for you, and I know many others are.
Please keep talking to us. RosePetal xxxxxx

back in the early 80's right after i was married the main driving point i kept hearing at the meetings was "do more,,, pioneer ".. well being the young impressionable jw couple that we were, .
my wife is a speech therapist, so working pt was no problem, but i ended up working construction, cleaning carpets, and shoveling snow at all hours with the brothers, and i worked like a d*** fool at all hours.. funny how there was so much support for me to work with the witnesses, but once the decision was made work could be very iffy at times.. and the main thing that just causes me to cringe now is how so many of the witnesses in charge of the congregation thought that we did not need insurance, my wife had a policy with her school district, but my son and i did not.
granted medical expenses were not as bad then, but just the idea of thinking that we did not need it that god would watch over us just embarasses me to no end now.
My hubby just said "yeah I joined them" SHUDDER

to the household of god, israel, and those who go with... may you have peace!.
i have a very sincere question to ask because of some recent comments i've received regarding postings on the board.
the subject is on my mind... and heart... because of two similar incidents that occurred in my life since my journey began, which i would like to relate to you.
Yes I agree with watersprout, I love learning and enjoy the conversations and discussions of people and picking up on their knowledge, tips and if I don't understand or know I ask them, and they love explaining what they know. Broadening our knowledge is the spice of life. I loved going back to college it made me work hard as I don't have a great memory but now I am finding it easier.
Also I think it is polite in company to talk about things others want to talk about and to share conversation being aware we could be leaving someone out. I try to adapt to who I am with and not make them feel uncomfortable, this has helped me broaden my friends and acquaintances.

to cut very long story short , my inlaws have not seen my child for 18months we left the area they live 2 years ago after a ex min servant was sent to prison for abusing kids including my eldest child , understandably i wanted a fresh start !
today my jw motherinlaw tried to give her disfellowshipped son ten pounds for our child (her granchild she hasnt seen for 18 months ) he asked her why ?
she told him i told her it was best if they didnt see our child anymore just before i left town (half hour drive away from our new home ) this is not true at all !
LooLoo I am sorry you are so upset, don't let them take away your peace, you have your little family you are together, don't let them take your happiness away from you. Put all your energy hopes and dreams to your family. Let everyone see that you are happy being angry you will only hurt yourself. Don't let the org. split your family, let the grandparents see that you are happy, and continue to let them know that you want them to see their grandchild, your daughter could write a card to them telling them she would love to see them.
Turn the situation around. I will be praying for you and your family, you can pm me or phone me any time.

the question is this;.
because you are members of this apostate site, yet are still willing to serve the wt soc as elders,.
do you still hope to .
I recommend reading 'The amazing story of Jay walters' on freeminds, about an elders story waking up and his journey out of the org.

I have often watched American shows and people are eating a meal they pass round a plate of what they call biscuits, they eat them with the meal and look like scones. Can anyone tell me what they are, and what they are made of, are they like yorshire puddings or very different ?

greetings, egg eaters:.
it's about 3:30 a.m., my usual hour up and writing.
eggs and onions are on the range, even as we speak.. i'm thinking of one of my favorite actresses, margaret rutherford, and her husband, stringer davis, who had the custom of a midnight repast of bacon and eggs.. do you down cackleberries with relish?
Snowbird I have had that with rice included in the recipe it was scrumtious. mmmm yummy.
