January 2014 Celebrations

Posted on Updated on

January 1st brings a new year for us and new opportunities to get it right in 2014.  Here are some celebrations you might want to dive into:

Month: National Bath Safety Month; National Blood Donor Month; National Hobby Month.

Week: 2nd week in January – Letter Writing Week – get out that stationery and pens and get to it!

  • January 1: Happy New Year!
  • January 2: Run up the Flagpole and see if Anyone Salutes Day (sounds like a horrific hangover action)
  • January 3:  Festival of Sleep Day, but not until after you’ve celebrated Fruitcake Toss Day
  • January 6:  Bean Day; and Cuddle Up Day (maybe it’s just me, but that doesn’t sound like a good idea)
  • January 10:  Peculiar People Day
  • January 13:  International Skeptics Day (I seriously doubt that)
  • January 14:  Dress up your pet day (I see people celebrating this event all-year round – scary)
  • January 16:  National Nothing Day
  • January 17:  Ditch New Years Resolutions Day (been there – done that already)
  • January 18:  Winnie the Pooh Day (birthday of author A.A. Milne)
  • January 20:  Martin Luther King Jr., Birthday
  • January 21:  National Hugging Day
  • January 23:  National Handwriting Day (see Week celebration above)
  • January 24:  Beer Can (or bottle) Appreciation Day; and Compliment Day (my readers, you’re looking fine today!)
  • January 31:  drawkcaB Day

And with that, I’ll leave you to pursue your goal of being the best you can be in 2014.
