more days of the year

So as recently mentioned, I like celebrating the more obscure holidays as I find on Days of Year.com.  So here is a little update on my celebrations.


On February 11th I did wear white.  I did spill the milk without crying about it.  I did make new friends, Daysi and Rebel.   I gave out guitar picks to my co workers.  And I was satisfied staying single for that day as well.

On February 13th to celebrate "Get a New Name" day, I gave myself a new name for the day.  Indigo Blu (Indie for short).  But I was home alone most of the day so I am the only one that called me that.

Monday February 15th was Single Awareness Day.  I had planned my second annual SAD party to take place at a local Mexican restaurant however due to expected bad weather (that never happened by the way) I postponed it.  So I spent the evening crafting and watching movies. 

Tuesday February 16th was "Do a Grouch a Favor" day.  I didn't give Peter any chores that day.  I figured that counted.

On Wednesday February 17th I celebrated "Random Acts of Kindness Day."  I did an act so random that I am not sure who benefited. Someone out there got a $20 bill when unknown to me it fell out of my pocket.  When discovered I decided that counted for my random act of kindness.  Can't get much more random than that.

Thursday February 18th was "Eat Ice Cream for Breakfast." Since it was also my co-worker's birthday, it was a convenient way for our preschool kids and I to celebrate her while having ice cream for breakfast. 

Though not found on the Days of the Year website, Friday marked mine and Peter's 13th anniversary of when we became family by his coming to live with me.  I bought Chinese take out to celebrate.

Today is Sticky Bun day so I baked a can of cinnamon rolls that I had in the fridge.  I bought and baked them for Peter yet managed to eat two already.

Looking ahead . . .
Tomorrow the 22nd  is Margarita Day.

Tuesday the 23rd is International Dog Biscuit Day.  I don't have a dog but recently found some "Scooby Snacks" that are graham crackers shaped like dog biscuits.  Seems like Tuesday will be a good day to share with the kids at the preschool.

The 24th is Tortilla Chip Day.  That is Peter's staple food!  And since the fourth Wednesday in February is also "Inconvenience Yourself Day" maybe I will do so and go buy Peter a bag of tortilla chips and throw in some salsa.

This one wasn't on the website either but Thursday the 25th is my friend Debbie's birthday!

Friday is my favorite this week.  It is "For Pete's Sake Day."  And since I have a Pete(r) in my life, I am sure I can find something to do for his sake that day.  Maybe more Chinese take out.

Saturday is Kahlua Day.  I have a good Kahlua cake recipe - hmmmm. 

Sunday is Floral design day.

Monday February 29th is Leap Day.  When I canceled the Single Awareness Day party I rescheduled it for Monday February 29th making it a "Leap for Joy, We're Single" party. I was amused to recently discover that on Days of the Year it is marked as Bachelor Day.  I guess I wasn't that far off.

May all your days be a celebration.
