Holidays - November 2006

The holidays use to be fun until my uncle was murdered two days before Thanksgiving in '91, my grandmother on mom's side died two days after New Years in '98 then my grandfather on dad's side died on Christmas Day in '99, and now my grandfather on mom's side is doing pretty bad it could be any day now for him. I just don't feel happy during the holidays especially when I see families out together it just brings me down. Now I have to take my baby to see his dad's side of the family and I really don't feel up to it at all. Does anyone know how I feel or have any suggestions and I've already done counseling. I'm very sad not depressed I just don't like to be around families should I force myself to feel better?

This year we have no money to spend on anybody. My husband has been out of work for way to long and we are trying to keep our heads above water. However, I do like people to know that we are thinking of them. Any ideas on christmas gifts without spending any money?

My boyfriend and I have been together for almost 2 years and he invited me to go to his family's thanksgiving. Do I bring cookies or wine or anything?

I hope everyone has a safe & happy thanksgiving. Remember to say a prayer for our troops overseas who can't be with their famililes, and say a prayer for their families also. This time of year has to be especially tough for them, and I think prayer is one of the best things we can do for them.

Some stores sell Christmas trees that are made to be displayed upside down. Does anyone know a store in Indianapolis, Indiana that would sell them?

My boyfriend is Jewish and I am Christian (non-practicing Catholic to be precise). I know that Hanukkah is not as important to Jews as Christmas is to Christians, but I'm wondering if I should buy him a Hanukkah present? If so, on which night of Hanukkah should I give him a present? Does it really matter or is it more of the thought that counts? I'm not expecting a Christmas present (although if he wants to give me a gift, I would appreciate it), and I'm not wanting to give him a gift simply in the hopes that he will reciprocate. Any advice?

I remember a song when I was younger that was called " The Day Before The Night Before Christmas". Nobody seem's to remember this song. I tried to "google" it but I didn't come up with what I wanted. I remember he had a 33 record with this song on it. I don't remember what the title of the album was or who the artist(s) were either. I don't even know what year this record came out. I was born in '73 by the way.

We celebrate Kwanzaa every year and invite guests over on the last day, Imani (purpose). I would love to have some ideas on some festive and earthy ways to decorate the house. Thanks!

(Matthew 2:1-9,16) After Jesus had been born in Beth´le·hem of Ju·de´a in the days of Herod the king, look! astrologers from eastern parts came to Jerusalem, 2 saying: “Where is the one born king of the Jews? For we saw his star [when we were] in the east, and we have come to do him obeisance.” 3 At hearing this King Herod was agitated, and all Jerusalem along with him; 4 and on gathering together all the chief priests and scribes of the people he began to inquire of them where the Christ was to be born. 5 They said to him: “In Beth´le·hem of Ju·de´a; for this is how it has been written through the prophet, 6 ‘And you, O Beth´le·hem of the land of Judah, are by no means the most insignificant [city] among the governors of Judah; for out of you will come forth a governing one, who will shepherd my people, Israel.’” 7 Then Herod secretly summoned the astrologers and carefully ascertained from them the time of the star’s appearing; 8 and, when sending them to Beth´le·hem, he said: “Go make a careful search for the young child, and when YOU have found it report back to me, that I too may go and do it obeisance.” 9 When they had heard the king, they went their way; and, look! the star they had seen [when they were] in the east went ahead of them, until it came to a stop above where the young child was. .......................16 Then Herod, seeing he had been outwitted by the astrologers, fell into a great rage, and he sent out and had all the boys in Beth´le·hem and in all its districts done away with, from two years of age and under, according to the time that he had carefully ascertained from the astrologers.

I'm certainly not. I got up at 6 in the morning to go to the mall, add the fact that I had to push about 8 people out of the way to get what I was looking for simply to save a couple dollars.
