Never a Dull Moment in ExMormondom

Image
Back when I was a Mormon life was a pretty dull ride. Thank goodness I've shifted gears as an ExMormon. Now there's never even a dull moment. Like this weekend when Mark and I headed up to Sacramento for the last of Jerry the Aspousetate's annual summer parties. The following crappy photos are courtesy of the slightly buzzed blog owner: Among the attendees were several members of the newly formed Sacramento chapter of  Mormon Spectrum . Interesting folks with interesting stories - from a young man who is struggling to raise his kids alongside his believing ex, to a middle-aged woman who had married into Mormon royalty (with disastrous results), to an eighty-year-old who still endures the snubs and rebukes from her believing siblings some  60 years  after leaving the faith. Also we got to meet Mike, who is famous for his  YouTube temple videos . He reminisced about those wholesome, bygone days when we got to pantomime our own deaths in the LDS temple. Ah...memori...

I've been off the grid lately, thanks to a wonderful visit from our son, daughter-in-law, and grandkids! Mark, Meera, and adorable offspring Since I understand the Mormon-themed media is obsessing over Joseph Smith's phony seer stone while the mainstream media is obsessing over the Republican phony, Donald Trump, I'm not suffering from any separation anxiety. In fact I'm having a blast! Keya Maya and Max! So, as you can see, Gentle Readers, I've no time left for the seer stone or the Donald. But I will be back soon.
