Lady M
I'm probably far from you. I live in northern Ontario in Canada. Sault Ste. Marie which borders with upper Michigan and our sister city by the same name.
So unless your in upper MI or upper lower MI your going to have a loooooooong drive.
Meetings are to start on Sept. 3 at their home, which is beside a store so there is plenty of parking plus people could just think we are at the store. This is good as I don't want too many people to know I'm peeking my head out of the closet.
As it was an old friend from Habitat for Humanity was sitting near us in the coffee shop and I'm sure he overheard most of the conversation as he didn't stop to say hello, which he always does. He's very Christian so I think this may have put him off me. I hope not and that it's just my own paranoia.
I find lately I have gotten a bit bolder at home and have my altar set up, but when a ton of family was coming for my birthday party earlier this month my son and I packed everything up, to avoid the grandkids getting into things and other relatives asking too many questions. But it's set up again now. I did find yesterday when a friend stopped by and asked for something which was on my bed, I said so then ran to get it for him myself. I didn't want him noticing things and asking too many questions.
So I still am a bit nervous about others knowing.
Are any of you like this? Or are you open with your different than the norm beliefs?
