Happy Friday!

Well...all of a sudden the week is over!!  I don't know what happened to it, other than it was CRAZY.  Although, I have to say, my life has pretty much been like that since summer started...so I guess it's not going to end too soon, though the end is in sight!  :)

Last night we did a booth at the Stroll Kaysville.  We had a different location, and it seemed to go a little better, but I only sold one small print.  :(   Plenty of people comment on my art, say it's beautiful, yada yada, but no one buys anything.  It's pretty discouraging sometimes.  Well...we can only go up if we're at the bottom, right??  So - onward and upward!! 

There are a few fun things for today - and a whole boatload for tomorrow that I'll share because I know I'm not gonna want to write anything on the first Saturday we don't have anything planned since June!!!  :)

Hug Your Boss Day - Well, in today's world, this doesn't go over very well, unless you're female and your boss is female - us women hug all the time.  :)  But if you can get away without a sexual harrassement suit, it's the day to do it!  :)
 
Live Creative Day - Live, laugh, love!  Isn't that creative?  have you thought of a creative part to your life?  I feel like I'm having to be creative much of my life, so I don't need encouragement for this, but perhaps you do.  Creativity helps the brain to live wiser longer, and keeps those debilitating deseases at bay.  Be creative, fill your life with joy and color!  If you're a teacher, however, you usually are having to be creative every day!  :)


National Kreme Filled Donut Day - What a day to celebrate!!  I love me a kreme filled doughnut.  Gonna have to go visit Bowmans bakery on the way home so everyone can celebrate it.  Wish I'd had time to go by last night when they were half price, lol.  You all know that their doughnuts are half price after 7, right?  ya, that's right.  :)

National Eat a Hoagie Day - Well, I glanced through the link the Nibble had with this day, and it's quite the history.  Pretty much all the different sandwiches you know about...subway (sub's) grinders, hoagies, they're all the same thing - created to be a sandwich for Italian workers way back when. Go figure.  I always figured there was a specific reason they all had different names.  The hoagie kind of morphed from the 'hero' sandwich...'cause you had to be a hero to finish off ' lol.  Just a bit of trivia...

Saturday -  so here's the list for tomorrow...some of them are silly, some a bit less so, but ya know.  It's fun!

Big Whopper Liar Day - I guess if you always wanted to tell a big fib, today would be the day you could get away with it.  Thing is...if someone finds out, I don't think it would make anyone else very happy...I mean, that's kind of what April Fools is like, right?  And no one gets upset at that...but if no one knows it's big liar day...then you're gonna be in hot water... just sayin'.

have to put something from Liar Liar


Felt Hat Day -  I don't like felt hats, but if you like getting the ones with your name on it at Disneyland, then this day is for you... lol
  Greenpeace Day - I'm sorry, I know I should be more admiring of organizations that want to keep the plant green, but every time I hear about greenpeace I think of Two Weeks Notice and the scene where she's mad because her boyfriend won't come home from his Greenpeace boat...  I wanted to post a video clip of her slamming down the stapler as she's talking to George about it and saying, "how can I love him when he's half the world away on his boat?" but the only thing that came up was when he gets her drunk on his boat.  So...if you have the movie, go watch it and enjoy.  Think of Greenpeace, lol.
 
International Eat An Apple Day - eat an apple a day, keep the doctor away!  Well, I guess this is definitely the day to do it.  Everyone enjoy a good apple.  It's funny, I don't like to eat them without slicing them up anymore.  I guess I don't like getting apple juice all over my face...lol

Locate An Old Friend Day - this is where Facebook comes in real handy!  I had two old friends find me on Facebook, and it's been so much fun to reconnect with them!  I still can't find a couple that I think of every once in a while, but since the whole world is NOT on Facebook, oh well... 

National 8-Track Tape Day - Okay, show of hands (LOL)  how many of you remember 8-track tapes??  I used to hate them!!  They would always change track in the middle of a song.  UGH.  
 
National Cheese Toast Day - good day to celebrate!  How about just toasted cheese sandwiches??  I don't know ...but cheese and toast is always good...   (It's not on The Nibble site, but Brownielinks liked it)

National Clean Up Day - good thing - clean up everything.  The house, the yard, the world, lol.  My son does his part...he picks up garbage as he's walking places.  We've finally managed to get him no to throw it away in random garbage cans...and sort of got him stopped from going into people's yards to pick up random garbage.  Did I tell you about the time he cleaning up the fireworks the neighbor left in front of his house in their PRIVATE driveway and knocked on their door at 7 in the morning to let them know??  sigh.  Good thing they like us...

National Gymnastics Day - Gymnastics!  I used to LOVE this sport.  I still like some of it, but it's changed over the years, and the Olympics has soured it a little for me.  No longer can you get a perfect score because of all the hoopla that has happened.  Remember when Nadia Comaneci got a perfect score??  Those were amazing days.  I love the movie Stick It...it's an awesome statement about the world of gymnastics.



National Linguini Day - pasta - doesn't matter too much what type, though linguini is good.  I think my favorite is angel hair...  but go ahead and enjoy yourself some pasta tonight!  er...tomorrow night.  ;)

I know she's not eating linguini, but you can pretend...lol


have a great weekend!!
