Today we celebrate:

National Goof Off Day – You know you've been looking for an excuse to goof off. Well, here it is, all day long.

World Water Day – Without water, there is no chance of life. Therefore, this is a United Nations sponsored day to bring attention to the danger our freshwater supply is in due to pollution. This year, World Water Day is dedicated to a theme of cooperation around water. http://www.unwater.org/water-cooperation-2013/home/en/

As Young As You Feel Day – This day goes well with National Goof Off Day. You are as young as you feel, so do things that make you feel younger. Play with some kids, run outside, go for a hike, play some video games, take a nap. Whatever it is that you like to do that makes you feel younger than your age.

International Day Of The Seal – Created by Congress in 1982, there are some who believe it is celebrated on different days, but the most reliable looking information I could find says it is today. This is a day to bring attention to the problem of seal hunting. If people keep killing these beautiful creatures for sport, there won't be any left which would be very sad for people but will cause even bigger problems for the animals that hunt seals for food.

To celebrate today, goof off by grabbing your kids and going to visit a zoo like you used to when you were a kid. While you're there, find out if there is anything that you can do to help the seals. On the way home, count how many bodies of freshwater you can see.
