It sounds like it's going to be unschooling this time.

I also noticed that she's added a few words (Quiverfull, Pro-life, conservative) to her twitter bio... it used to read:

"Sinner saved by His Grace. Stay at home wife and homeschooling mom. Finally comfortable in my own skin."

which I actually thought was rather sweet, and showed that she was getting it all together.

Now it says:

"Sinner saved by His Grace. Stay at home wife and homeschooling mom. Quiverfull. Pro-life. Conservative. Book lover. Finally comfortable in my own skin."

ETA: For completeness, here's her husband's blog: thecormierfamily.org/Jason/

If memory serves, I believe the next phase will be either

1) no or majorly limited television

2) wifely submission

3) some whack-ass new diet system.

It's like a bad movie of the week being replayed over, and over, and over....

She does denounce the Pearls' book as "borderline abuse" and said she

threw it in the trash. Good for her! At least in that area, she listened to her own good sense and did not blindly follow those creeps.

Whats the point of covering up the hair again?? I'm sorta new to all this fundie stuff. Is it just part of the whole modesty thing?

There's a passage in the Bible (1 Corinthians 11:2-16) that talks about women having their head covered to pray. There are many interpretations of it, but some people read it as requiring women to wear a cloth covering over their head when they pray (others say the covering is long or uncut hair). There is another verse that says we should "pray without ceasing", so some people take that to mean the covering should be worn all the time, not just in church.

It's not really connected with modesty in the Bible, but is somewhat with headship and order (God->man->women as parallel to God->Christ->church). Most of the people who do wear headcoverings also really focus on "modesty" in the form of covering up or wearing dresses only, so there is a lot of crossover with people involved in both and with shops selling both headcovering and Amish-type or very old-fashioned styles of dresses. Some women do claim that having the hair down is immodest, but I think that idea is more borrowed from pop culture perceptions of Islamic modesty than from Christianity.

I'm not sure how long Brandy covered for, although I get she's had a lot of off and on phases, but it really is sort of weird and uncomfortable not wearing a covering once you get used to one. I don't cover full-time anymore, but I wear one around the house a lot just to keep my hair back and because I feel more like me. I also wore a scarf to church once that was really slippy and decided to just take it off rather than fuss with it during the service, and I felt really, really "off".

Defrauding, you've made my week with that graph.

I really think you need to do one for Zsu Zsu and Candy.

That would make my MONTH.

      Stupid loneliness!
      Kid 1 went back to college (yeah! But sad foe me, she stayed with me all summer. It was nice to start a new phase in our mother/daughter relationship)
      Zero prospects on dates. (Not that I have tried online dating, scared of that but I have reached put to a new group at church, etc.
      I asked a friend to go to dinner the other night so I wasn't eating alone, again. The friend had plans, all my friends always have plans. I see stuff on social media, I'm never invited. I'm single, I'm the 3rd or 5th wheel.
      My one parent friend at kid 2's fall sport won't be there because their daughter made varsity (Yeah for her!!! Seriously happy for her. Sad for me for another sport I basically sit alone, did that majority of spring and summer sporting events.)
      And now I'm crying as my mom told me 2 different funny stores that former teachers remembered about my twin. Both stories were about how they got a crack out of my twin's antics (my parents went to a funeral today and saw former colleagues). Teachers remember me (after all I was a twin and teachers' kid) but none would have memorable stories of me. 
      I feel invisible. 
      Don't worry, this will pass,  it always does. I just need a pity party for a few days. I'm not in anyway going to harm myself. As lonely as I am, I have a very full life I (usually) love. I just needed to vent and cry for a moment. 
      If you are still reading this, thanks Fjer. 😊

      Absolutely awful about the fires on Maui. In 2019, I stayed in Lahaina. I liked to sit on the sea wall, which is the only structure left now, and watch the water. People are receiving help, but many had to leave pets. Please donate to the Maui Humane Society, which is leading efforts to find, treat, and reunite pets.

      Nebraska’s new football coach, who is involved in an organization called Man Up Ministries, labels certain players “Alphas” and sometimes “extreme Alphas” and the local paper has a nice piece on why people objecting to the term “alpha male” are wrong and it has a “nice ring”. 🤮🤮🤮🤮
