My west coast brother has informed me that today is "Checklist Day," "Buy a Donut Day," "Pumpkin Bread Day," "National Candy Corn Day" and, last but nor least, "Sugar Addiction Awareness Day." You will notice that the middle three 'days' listed all involve some amount of sugar ingestion, which makes me think that perhaps SAAD should come well before the Halloween candy eating spree begins, or after, to allow us to kick the habit.
My spouse and I have quite a bit of self control but we both admit to having snitched a few little candy bars from the Halloween bucket in the foyer. Thank goodness it will all be gone by tomorrow evening.
On the other hand "Checklist Day" is very appropriate since we have spent almost all day packing and checking things off our lists in preparation for our trip. We did take a little time out to get our RSV shots. One thing off our list.
But while it works for me, I am also wondering about the timing of this special day. We all know who 'makes a list and checks it twice' so why aren't we celebrating "Checklist Day" in December?
Although now that I think about it, I have recently seen Christmas decorations in some local stores.
Start making your lists.
