almost there.....
Today is the 28th day of the 4th month and the 119th day of 2016 with only 240 shopping days until Christmas. And beware – Mercury has gone retrograde which makes five total planets as Mars, Jupiter, Saturn and Pluto are all currently retrograde. Today we are celebrating: - Biological Clock Day
- Brave Hearts Day
- Great and Holy Thursday: ((Friday’s Eve is always a good day, but only today is “great and holy” apparently))
- Great Poetry Reading Day AKA Poem In Your Pocket Day
- National Blueberry Pie Day ((I prefer blueberry cobbler. With a topping of vanilla ice cream.))
- National Cubicle Day
- National Kiss Your Mate Day
- National Superhero Day
- Pay it Forward Day
- Take Our Daughters and Sons to Work Day
- Workers' Memorial Day
- World Day for Safety and Health at Work
On this day: In 224 the Battle of Hormozdgān was fought effectively ending the Parthian Empire. In 1253 Nichiren, a Japanese Buddhist monk, chants the mantra “Namu Myōhō Renge Kyō” for the very first time and declares it to be the essence of Buddhism – and a new sect is born. In 1788 Maryland became the seventh state to ratify the United States Constitution.. And yes, like the sinking of the Titanic, Mutiny on the Bounty :was not just a movie and a novel – it actually happened in 1789. In 1947 Thor Heyerdahl and five crew mates set out from Peru on the Kon-Tiki to prove that Peruvian natives could have settled Polynesia (( reading his books about his 101-day journey and then his work on Easter Island when I was in elementary school is what started my obsession with anthropology)). And in 2001 Dennis Tito, a billionaire businessman from California, became the world's first space tourist.
And tomorrow starts my vacation….
