Why I don't like Halloween

This Friday is one of the largest holidays in the US and it's the only one I don't celebrate. I hate Halloween. The reason? It's the devil's holiday. It's not a Christian holiday at all, it's roots are not Christian, it's a pagan holiday. Besides I have heard a demon talk from a girl who said himself that "...on our Hallows Eve..." That right there convinced me that it's not "just a fun holiday" for dressing up. If you want so bad to dress up, then do a human scavenger hunt in a mall, very fun! Americans spend a lot of money on Halloween decorations, and to me they're all very eerie and I don't like them. To me, if it's not Godly, I don't want it hanging on my porch. The skeletons, jack-o-lanterns, and ghosts are creepy and some of them are demon like.  Fall decorations on the other hand, I love, gourds, straw, etc.  One thing I thought of when it comes to Halloween is "is this something Jesus would celebrate?" I'm going to say that he wouldn't, therefore neither am I, because I want to be more like Jesus!

I'm Mrs Sniffles

It's starting to get really cold out here in NY! Two nights ago it was like 29 degrees! I'm not looking forward to snow and ice at all, although I really haven't ever been fond of it since Dec 2, 2006. Anyway, I've been sniffily the past couple of days and I'm not sure exactly why, it could be the weather or it could be something else, who knows. We won't get into that right now. 

This weekend David and I are going to his parents for the weekend, I'm very excited because I get to meet cousins that I haven't met yet. Erin and Cory. Cory is a great artist and we have his two books The Ballad of Matthew's Begats and Ticket. He actually only illustrated the first one. The second is a wordless book, really neat! On Saturday I think David, Dawn (my darling sister in law), and I are going to the mall shopping and then we're going to a friend's party for their niece or something, not sure who the people are but, they want to meet me. I'm actually getting ready to head out the door, a friend is coming to pick me up to go to calling hours for our high school math teacher Mr. Stein, he passed away on Saturday :(
