20 years ago today

I hate the holiday season, just hate it. I used to love it, but 20 years ago today the police came to our door to make the worst notification they are tasked with. Our daughter was just 21.

We do Christmas, we have had little kids for the past 17 years, so we have to do Christmas, but I just wish I could go to bed Thanksgiving night and wake up mid January.

I remember reading about your daughter in one of the JRod threads, I believe. Such awful, awful news to hear, and just before Christmas too. So sorry for your loss.

I remember too, and my heart broke for you when I read that. I hope this isn't too painful to share with you, but we were on a road trip last weekend and I looked back and saw my daughter slouched across the back seat. I told her to sit up because her seatbelt wouldn't work properly that way. A whole disagreement between her, my husband and I ensued but I remembered your story and insist that she (and I) sit properly in the car from now on. I am so sorry for your loss, but you have shared with us a valuable lesson. I hope you had a nice holiday in spite of everything.

Blackberry, so much love being sent to you as well on this day.  I have never forgotten after you shared and like Puma reminded my son to sit up properly in the car on the way home from our outing yesterday.

      The fundies with one letter for boys and one for girls are only 3 families I can think of off the top of my head. 
       

      The Pecans

      The Holts

      The Swansons

      Are there any others?

      Yep. Fundies have all kinds of nonsensical disputes and pre-marriage questionnaires about “theological differences” and “scripture”, so the parents may very well have objected the marriage due to some random difference in religious doctrine with the other family.

      I think the Whites are awful in many ways, but I'm kinda hoping that their objection was that the Bowers are a bunch of Insurrectionists who want to overthrow the government.

      Like Pelaiah, my dad was career military, and he sure as hell would have objected to me marrying into someone whose into treason.

      I'm going to be total BEC right now and point out that this is what Haley apparently wore out to dinner at a  Texas Roadhouse  a night or two ago. I don't know about y'all but I always wear a floor length satin gown to eat ribs at my local mid-market chain steakhouse.

      I guess I pulled a Braggie and put wall paper on my bathroom built in cupboard. It was super cheap though. I didn’t spend hundreds of dollars on designer Anthro paper. I spent like 8 or 9 bucks on a roll of this to brighten up the space:

      There’s pictures of Ilsa’s funeral on Jill’s Instagram page. My heart breaks for her, I hope she has the support she needs through this time. 

      My heart breaks for her too. Losing a much wanted pregnancy is terrible. I hope she is able to conceive again and to carry a baby to term and to have a safe delivery.

      That's my bad. I didn't realize that they had a theme going.

      And honestly, there's no reason why you should. It's not like anybody here is under any kind of obligation to keep up with fundie logic :). I just have that weird type of brain that remembers such stuff.
