Do You Know What Today Is?

           It occurs to me that we need more holidays. We can trade in the dumb ones and have days that actually lift our spirits. See what you think of my ideas:

          Elastic Waistband Day – Pretty self-explanatory, but I think some gratitude is in order.

          Hat Day – On this day, everyone wears a hat. I can see this getting ridiculously elaborate, and the more Seussian, the better.

          Library Day – Off you go to the library and borrow at least one book. Libraries are an endangered species, so let’s keep them going.

          Old Person Day – On this day you visit someone older than you are. You remember that they have more experience and you honor that. (Plus, it’s a good reminder that somebody is older than you are.) Wait. Now that I think about it, I might be the one who gets visited! Forget this one.

          Drawers Day – No, this is not about underwear. It’s a day to clean out a drawer. This can be a desk drawer, the infamous kitchen “junk drawer” or even your underwear drawer. Okay, so it is about underwear.

          Rocky and Bullwinkle Day – Self explanatory.

          I was going to suggest Chocolate Day, but it already exists (July 7).

          Pajama Day seems to be every day now, at least for teenagers.

          And January 27^th is Bubble Wrap Appreciation Day, so I’m posting a photo from a year ago, when we gave two of our boys bubble wrap suits for Christmas:

          May you celebrate to your heart’s content, and even take time out to watch one of my Youtube Mom videos!
