20 Year Reunion

We got an email the other day informing us that Joe's 20-year high school reunion is being planned!! One of our high school friends sent the email, and said "I guess it's time to start working out!" HAHA! Another friend said "I guess I better break out the Rogaine." HAHA! Since Joe and I went to the same high school, I'm excited and interested to see what people look like now and what things they're doing in their lives. Joe could care care less, can you believe that?! He says he already sees the people he wants to see from high school. My response is "then we'll go have a fun night with those people!" Plus, I hope there's dancing, because I always love a chance to dance with my husband. The thing I don't think he realizes is, is that a lot of people will probably want to see HIM. He was voted class clown, and was well-liked. I think most people knew him. Anyway, I think at least I'M going to enjoy his reunion! Even then, I enjoyed his class more than mine. I probably won't go to my reunion next year.....Maybe if there's dancing....:)

Baptists vs. Pentecostals? What's the Deal?

So, what's the deal between Baptists and Pentecostals/Charismatics? Why is it that these two groups allow the non-essentials (non-essentials to salvation, that is) to divide them? I grew up in a conservative, Baptist church. Certain "things" that Pentecostals did, were basically mocked and considered "evil/of the devil." Raising hands during worship? Forget it. Praying in tongues? ABsolutely NOT. As a kid, I remember watching African-American church services on TV, and being mesmerized by their enthusiasm in worshipping God. I wanted to worship like that - to fully express my emotion and love toward the Lord with other believers. After all, I LOVED Him! He was my closest Friend since I was about four years old. I WANTED to express my love to Him. Frankly, I found my church growing up to be very BORING. Grab a hymnal. Stand up. Sing a song. Sit down. Yawn.... When I turned 18, I was invited by Joe's mom, to attend a Foursquare church where I lived. Now, havin...

It's Thanksgiving again - yay

I have become less fond of Thanksgiving the last ten years. First of all, me, Joe and our kids usually end up doing it alone. No big event. No warm, large, extended family gathering. We used to have them. And, sadly, we had more when we lived states away from our extended family, because we would always be invited to share the holiday with friends or families from church. I have tried to invite people over (who might not have a place to go), and create a gathering, but that has never worked out. I have tried something out of the norm, and went to Old Country Buffet. Read last year's entry about Thanksgiving, and you'll see what a fiasco THAT was. This year, Joe's parents are still living in another state, my side of the family is somewhat estranged etc., and no one has invited us to join their extended family gathering. I thought about going and serving a meal at a homeless shelter or something. It's still a thought, but we'll probably just be alone again. We do, ho...
