Special /December Days

Today is (was) "Go Caroling Day" but I restrained myself for the good of all my neighbors and did not go caroling up and down the halls. Tomorrow is "Humbug Day" but except for wrapping a last few gifts I'm ready to celebrate with my family. I'm even ready to cook Christmas dinner so I'm not really feeling too humbugish. I did hear a funny story in the news today though about an eight year old boy who got so caught up in the story of the Grinch that he became convinced that the Grinch was about to steal Christmas at his house and called 911.  Happily, the police were very understanding. So no Humbug for me.  Once I get past Christmas though there are two more special days I do plan to celebrate. December 27 is "Fruitcake Day" and I am one of the few people I know willing to admit I really like fruitcake so I will be celebrating appropriately. Then December 28 is "Card Playing Day" and, as luck would have it, I will be with family members who love to play cards.  So bring on those silly special days.
