The Athiest’s Holiday
April 1st, 2008 | Posted by Nichole | Category: HolidaysNo Comments
In Florida , an atheist became incensed over the preparation of Easter and Passover holidays. He decided to contact his lawyer about the discrimination inflicted on atheists by the constant celebrations afforded to Christians and Jews with all their holidays while atheists had no holiday to celebrate.
The case was brought before a judge. After listening to the long passionate presentation by the lawyer, the Judge banged his gavel and declared, ‘Case dismissed!’ The lawyer immediately stood and objected to the ruling and said, ‘Your honor, how can you possibly dismiss this case? The Christians have Christmas, Easter and many other observances. Jews have Passover, Yom Kippur and Hanukkah… yet my client and all other atheists have no such holiday!’ The judge leaned forward in his chair and simply said, ‘Obviously your client is too confused to even know about them, much less celebrate his own atheists’ holiday!’ The lawyer pompously said, ‘Your Honor, we are unaware of any such holiday for atheists. Just when might that holiday be, your Honor?’ The judge said, ‘Well it comes every year on exactly the same date–April 1st!

President’s Day Shopping
February 18th, 2008 | Posted by Nichole | Category: Holidays, ShoppingNo Comments
Happy President’s Day everyone! We of course had to go and do a bit of shopping today. We certainly picked a cold day to go. A high of 5 degrees not counting the wind chill. But we still had fun. I picked up some great fabric at Hobby Lobby and got some good deals at Savers.
My favorite purchase of the day would have to be these shoes which look super cute with a pair of jeans. Only $4! Everything at Savers was half off and I found some cute sweaters and a couple bed sheets for quilting. And it wasn’t even that busy. No waiting in line for the dressing rooms.
Happy Valentine’s Day

1. First and foremost, Happy Valentine’s Day! Hope you are having a great one. I am thankful for the love of my family and friends today.
2. Secondly, I’m thankful for my group of Sparks kids that remind me that Valentine’s day is a fun holiday. They remind me to be a kid again.
3. I’m also thankful for this season of singleness in which I am able to focus solely on Christ. I want to be married, but I also don’t want to waste my single years.
4. While I am not in a relationship at the moment, I am thankful for my past relationships with guys and the friends I have made and the things I have learned through those relationships.
5. I also thank God for the man God is preparing for me. I know he is going to be someone pretty special.
