Happy April!

Okay - I have stated before that fall is my favorite time of year, but I do admit that Spring is awesome!!  I just love watching the flowers bloom.  It kicks my painting craze into full bore.  :)

Last week I was soo busy.  You would have thought that I'd have time to stick a thought out there, but I didn't.  And, when there was days to glance, there wasn't really anything worth sharing in the holiday department.  I did write a long rant about Black Panther, but then deleted it.  It just wasn't worth the possible repercussions.  lol

Soo...  here we are - new week, new month - a load of possibilities!  There are a couple of fun things, but I have loads to get done, so won't take a lot of time on it.  :)  And - remember to check out Brownielocks.com...she has all the holidays!!  (except food, lol)


Free Cone Day (Ben & Jerry's) - so - apparently they have been doing this for a while.  I'm not a big Ben and Jerry fan, but ya know, free ice cream is free ice cream.  Here's a list of available stores...unfortunately there isn't one by me...  oh well. 

National Be Kind To Lawyers Day -  This means I can send my sister flowers!! lol  She's a lawyer, and we tell lawyer jokes all the time.  (She knows some good ones!)  Anyway - hey, if we didn't have lawyers, who would you have to do all the divorces and adoptions???  sad state, people...sad.


National Library Workers Day -  Shout out to all of those who work in libraries!!  My favorite place in (well, second favorite place) the world!!  One of my good friends works at the local one and it's fun to run in there and say hi.  I almost got a job in a library...  sigh.

National Library Day -  Celebrate your library!!  Go to the library and camp out in a corner reading.  I love libraries - I could spend hours in there.  Have you seen some of the huge ones??  This one in italy looks cool - I never would have thought of a library on the beach!!  Wouldn't that be awesome??  Talk about a day at the beach!!  there are some pretty cool libraries around the world, but I still didn't find one that looks like it has comfy seats.  I think there should be one in the trees with hamocks that you can lay in to read.  Don't you think that would be cool?  There are a couple of awesome children's libraries though...I would have LOVED these ones when I was a kid.  I still would.

Awesome stuff.









National Sibling Day -  And so, after all the years of fighting with your siblings...it's a day to be thankful for them.  Remember all the times when your sister stole your clothes or shoes?  Or your brother kept punching you in the back when mom wasn't looking?  Or let the air out of your bike tires...threw water balloons off the roof at you and your friends?  You would miss them if they were gone.  You love them, you know it.  Make sure you tell them today.  I sure love my siblings - they are the best.

National Cinnamon Cressent Day - who would have thought??  Sounds good to me though... the Nibble has a recipe for them. Looks yummy...


And lastly... Safety Pin Day - apparently this is the day in 1849 that the patent for the safety pin was given.  Rumor is the guy owed a friend money and invented something to be able to pay him back.  Whoever or however or why - I know the world is a better place for the safety pin!!  although...those of us who have had them pop open on you...they aren't always so safe, lol.  :)

Well, have a lovely spring day - you deserve it!

Wow... really??

so - I didn't realize it has been that long since my last post.  I think I kind of gave up on it, knowing I don't have many follower...
