MONDAY, MONDAY, MONDAY! that means it's time for...Monday Mission 2.50 by PromoGuy

1. So, what do you want for Christmas this year that you probably won't get?
hmmmm... I really haven't asked for anything for Christmas... I'll be thrilled with anything I get.

2. What do you know you will be receiving for Christmas this year?
hmmm... I don't know of anything I will be receiving...

3. If you had the means to do so, what presents would you get some of your fellow bloggers? Be specific, it's more fun that way!
I would make each and every one of them a hand painted box made especially for them.

4. Do you support any organizations that provide for the less fortunate during the holidays? Or do any volunteer work?
I used to buy presents for a couple of kids and sponsor a family off of the tree at church and sponsor a family through the American Legion, but in the past couple of years I haven't had the money to help at all. I do make donations to different organizations regularly throughout the year as well.

5. Each year about this time, I notice Church attendance seems to spike, then drops off sharply after Christmas. It tickles me that these folks think they are pulling a fast one on the Big Guy. What is the most recent thing guilt has motivated you to do?
That used to bother me so much at the church I attended for 8 years, the twice a year Christians. The Church we attend now doesn't really have that problem, it's really small. And now I really feel like a twice a year Christian myself because I don't get to go to church on Sundays because of my work schedule. Hmmmm.. unfortunately I can be motivated by guilt, but I can't remember my most recent guilt motivated action.

6. According to the commercials, the only way to truly tell someone you love them on Christmas day is to let them "Unwrap a Jaguar" automobile. Are there any examples of excessive commercialism and/or blatant disregard for the "Christmas Spirit" that really get under your skin?
Well all of them really.

7. I remember a song where the singers wished they could teach the world to sing, in perfect harmony. What would you like to teach the world?
Unconditional love

BONUS: Do they know it's Christmas time at all?
how could they miss it with all the commercials, etc?
