National holidays are sanctioned by each country’s government and are devoted to famous persons or events. There is usually one a month and most workers have the day off to celebrate it. However, it is a little known fact that each day of the year is dedicated to some animal, or food, or activity. None of them is a recognized holiday but they are worth acknowledging. Here are the ones for the last twenty-one days of summer.
Sept 1- World Letter Writing Day.
Sept 3- Skyscraper Day
Sept 4- Newspaper Carrier Day—I don’t think there are many of them left.
Sept 5- Be Late for Something Day—Maybe don’t make that work, your boss might not agree that it is a real holiday.
Sept 6- Read a Book Day. I am a writer so I sanction this holiday.
Sept 7- National Salami Day.
Sept 8- Pardon Day. As in “I beg your pardon ‘ or as we say here in Canada ‘Sorry’.
Sept 9- Teddy Bear Day. How many still have their childhood teddy bear?
Sept 10- Swap Ideas Day—make sure they are good ones.
Sept 11- Make Your Bed Day.
