September is full of holidays and special events.We’ve already celebrated Labor Day. This past Saturday would have been my Mom’s 87th Birthday.
I’m sure she is much happier now that she has moved on and is getting a well-deserved rest.
And, I am happier for her. She was a good woman.
This Friday, September 12th, marks the 1 Year Blogiversary of Dana’s site, Amid Life’s Crises.
I know; the excitement for that momentous event is palpable…or something.
I’m kidding…I kid because I love. I’m hyped up about it. I am even sending Dana something special to celebrate her special day.
Maybe she will let you know what it is after she receives it. Hee Hee.
September is also National Library Card Sign-Up Month. If you haven’t yet, get a Library card and go explore the wonder that is the Dewey Decimal System. Fascinating.
Yesterday was Grandparent’s Day. I just can’t get excited about that.
You see, my mom was 43 when she had me. By the time I came around, my G-Parents were old…or dead. I have only vague memories of one of my Grandmothers.
I’d like to think that if I was older when my Grandmothers were still around, either or both, would have looked and said something like this:
Yeah, I like that, Grammy…Yum-Oh!!
In a related note…This week I am giving a big shout out to GOP Presidential Candidate, Senator John McCain. Why you ask?
Johnny Mac is gonna be celebrating like a fool because this week is National Assisted Living Week. Lift those arms and raise the roof Senator…oops sorry pal.
Um, just have fun.
I can see Johnny Mac gettin' it on in da Nursin’ Hizzy:
So you think you can dance?
They’re so cute when they’re old.
Lastly, September 22nd marks the second time of the year that the sun will be beating directly down upon the Equator.
Physics, astronomical nuttiness, and infinite mathematical equations make this day what most thinking people refer to as, the Autumnal Equinox.
Evangelicals refer to this day as, “Intelligent Big Blue Marble Balancing Day”.
So folks, enjoy your September. There are big things going on. In fact, I think I will do the following later this month…
September 28th is National Good Neighbor Day. I am gonna walk down to Apt. 3 and hose the hot, new chick who just moved in.
After all, what’s more neighborly than that?
Cheers!!
