I have post-traumatic-thanksgiving-stress-disorder..
Tuesday, 27 November 2007

Hello my little bloggeronis..

 

What is the dizzle?  Sitting here in my studio office and my head is feeling a lil' swimmy...  not sure why but I just took some advil so hopefully it will kick in.... oh and btw my son is still up awake @ 1030pm!!! (i think he's somehow connected to all this..hmmm.. not sure).  Had a glorious few days off .. t-day was lovely and full of plates of food combined w/ family .. extended and otherwise.

 This was the first thanksgiving we've had since the baby came some the best thing about that was being able to pass the baby around like some mashed potatoes (which meant that we had a break for @ least a few hrs..) etc.  We kind of did the buffet style thanksgiving set up w/ everyone bringing something (we got stuck w/ the brownies and ham.. which smell terrible when they are combined in the back of your car) but as usual the food was great...combined w/ football... combined w/ the traditional thanksgiving evening go-out-with-relatives movie trip.

 So while wiping off the brownie crumbs from my shirt here is my thanksgiving/weekly observations..

 

Holidays:

 What is it about this time of the year that absolutely drains me completly?  I have such a love/hate relationship w/ this time of the year that I find myself running toward and away from it.. I love the family aspects/the food/the gifts/vibe/the meaning and hate the shopping/crowds/insanity/commericalism aspects of it... Can someone just shop for me this year and wake me when it's January?

 

Saying grace:

Is there anything more stressfull than being the designated grace sayer for all things holidays?  I'm not a long grace sayer (mainly cause I'm impatient and hungry) but when it comes time to say the public grace... I feel like ben stiller in "meet the parents' :)  I mean would God bless the food anyless if I reduced it to "rub and dub dub thanks for the grub?"... ok maybe not... either way...I think...ah nevermind.

 

Happy holidays vs. merry xmas vs. Merry Christmas vs. Happy merry Christmas vs... 

In my opinion Happy Holidays is lame pc/ non offensice silliness...  however the other funny thing to me is when people think xmas is taking Christ out of Christmas ... ok heres a bit of a Greek language lesson  for everyone ... the reason we have xmas is because X is first letter in the Greek useage for Chirst (translated xristos in the greek... ) so people have used xmas for years (actually it's also where we get the fish symbol from which sometimes spells ixoye in it) point being I understand to some degree why people feel that way... but realistically all it is just an abbreviation... trust me people will take Jesus out of xmas whether you use a x or a Christ.... is it worth getting mad over?  I think that anger could better directed @ the people who steal my parking space in the mall (im kidding people...) 

Black Friday Shopping: 

I love a good deal as much as the next guy but there is NO WAY im camping out @ 6am for a deal on socks... I'm sorry.. thats TOOOOO early....  however an iphone for 40 bucks?  maaaybeee...  ok neither is really gonna  happen but black friday shopping I try to avoid all together...  I'll wait till dec. 24th.. thats when shopping is the funnest!!! yeah!

Christmas/decorations etc:

is there anything more stressfull than a xmas tree?  The stand? Digging the lights out your musty dusty garage...  oh and I think my wife is gonna make me stick those dogone reindeer out in our front yard again..   Can someone wake me when it's January?  I'm gonna hibernate this winter like a bear... and grow a beard too...

 

MERRY JesusChrist bday to you all...

 

I love you Lord.. sorry for making the observation of your birth soooo complicated w/ other stuff....

 

-tweezy

grace
written by Monique, November 27, 2007

first off i need to tell you that your music lifts me up when i am going through hard bad things, so thank you for that.
second- i think grace is fine except for when we go around saying what we are thankful for because everyone in my extended family says dumb things like turkey and desert. they are good things but thats kind of disrespectful.
God Bless smilies/cool.gif

grace
written by Cadeau/Juragirl, December 01, 2007

I don't like saying grace either.
I don't like it when people TELL me to pray.
Then I have to worry about what to say. And it shouldn't be that way.
I prefer to pray in my head where I can talk to God however I want and not be judged lol.

the beard thing? I'm not so sure...lol
(and I liked the shades. it's kinda sad they're gone...smilies/smiley.gif )

Christmas is CRAZY
written by JesusFollower, December 01, 2007

Hey KJ,
I agree. Christmas is too commercialized. I walked into Lowes the Saturday after Thanksgiving and I looked around at all the holiday displays and decorations and I felt sick to my stomach. This is not the reason to celebrate Christmas.

So, we can all go and spend hours upon hours putting up all these decorations and lights and what not? Yes, they are pretty, but are they necessary? We need to all remember the real reason for the season... which is Christ. True he was born around Easter time, but we celebrate His birth on Christmas.

I dislike shopping during the holidays also.

I pray that you have a blessed Christmas with your wife and son!

Blessings,
Kim

#1 Fan song
written by JesusFollower, December 01, 2007

KJ,
I forgot one thing I wanted to say. I just want to thank you for what you are doing for the youth of today. Your music is very inspiring to these young teenagers today, so much so that they are making life changes from listening to it.

I started listening to your music a year or so ago when my now 19 year old daughter let me listen to one of your CD's. Ever since then I listen to your music daily. I love it! You and Toby are my favorite Christian artists. Keep up the awesome work KJ, you ARE making a huge difference for the Lord!

Your song #1 fan gives me chills everytime I listen to it. I know that song has got to be helpig some kids out there.

Blessings,
Kim

loved your Christmas tour show in Indy
written by Valerie Becktell, December 08, 2007

Hey, we went to your Christmas tour show with Superchic[k], at our church and your show was great! Our kids loved it, (ages 15 and 11), and so did my husband and I. We got to talk to you and got your CD(love it) and you were so nice and signed your pic for our kids. This was honestly the first time I had heard of you (sorry!) and I loooved your show! It was so fun(Yep, this middle aged mom was "Puttin up 5 and puttin up 2", that's right!!!) and it was a really great family night for us. Thanks for letting our kids know, being a Christian is not boring! It is fun and you can have great music and be a Christian. We are praying for your ministry and your continued success as you spread the gospel of Jesus Christ! God bless you!!!! (Whoop, whoop!)
