The One With Day 24
Current Mood: Elated 
Current Music: CHRISTMAS MUSIC!!!!!!!
Okay, it is now officially okay to listen to Christmas music!!!! This post is a little confusing...see, i was going to post last night to tell you about Thanksgiving (HAPPY THANKSGIVING, by the way!), but I really wanted to put my little dancing Christmas tree up...so I did it today. Anyway, about Day 24. Mostly uneventful. Thanksgiving at our house is pretty much about how much food we can digest in one day. It's a blast! The REAL fun came last night. I would love to put details on here, but I don't want anyone to feel embarrassed.
Here, let me be vague...last night was interesting because it let me see how faithful God is to those who pray to him. In the middle of a huge fight between family members, I found myself becoming frustrated with one of them (we'll call them Pat) because Pat refused to deal with the situation in an adult, rational manner. More than that, Pat admitted that Pat was selfish and didn't care about anyone, and was fine with that. Suddenly, the thought popped into my head..."You can't make Pat think differently. Leave that part to God. You should be praying." Oh my goodness, you would have thought Mr. Pat had shifted back to Dr. Jekyl. Anyway, it was a big lesson. Not that God answers prayer, I knew that, but that I have to take everything to Him. The instant I stop my conversation with God, I falter.
Okay, new topic. Go CHRISTMAS! I have added two special Christmas bonuses for you. The first is the Post Link, and the second is this---->KSBJ (#1 listener supported Christian station in the COUNTRY!) is playing 100% Christmas music from now until Christmas Day. Go to www.godlistens.com to partake! Enjoy and Happy Christmas Season to you!

Ok, sorry. I like the real Christmas. Being at home with my family. And our tree and our traditions. And what Christmas is really about. I love doing Advent and all that. But I hate the comercialized mall Christmas that starts in October. This Christmas is the 4th Christmas that I have worked in a mall. It makes in hard to enjoy Christmas when you are forced to listen to Christmas music from the 3rd week in November to the 3rd week in January! So really I don't hate the real Christmas.
