Today we celebrate:


“I Want To Start My Own Business Day” Day - This is a day for the entrepreneur within all of us. While not everyone is suited for running their own business, if you want to give it a try to see if you are one of those who could be successful at it, this is the day. Be your own boss, make your own rules.

National Hot Cross Bun Day – These delicious buns were usually eaten only on Good Friday but these days you can have them any time of year.

Make Your Bed Day – This is a great day! I really, really like this one. I think I'll print out this day and post it on my children's bedroom doors. It’s pretty self explanatory and parents all over the world should jump on it and make it an official celebration in their households.

No News Is Good News Day – This is my mantra whenever my children are away from me and I start to worry about them for no reason whatsoever. I remind myself that if something goes wrong, I'll get a phone call or something. You should remind yourself of that today as well.

Libraries Remember Day – On this day, Libraries commemorate the tragedies of September 11, 2001. The Bensenville Community Public Library in Illinois remembers by staying open for the entire 24 hours of this day. Check with your local library to see if they have any special commemoration events going on.

National Day of Service and Remembrance (Patriot Day) – This is a day to remember and honor those who died on this day in 2001 by doing whatever you can to help others in need. It isn't hard to find community service projects that need your help. Seek them out and keep those who were lost in mind while you do. It was created in 2011 by Presidential Proclamation.

National Emergency Responders Day - This is a day to celebrate the ones we depend on in an emergency. They are the ones who run toward trouble while the rest of us are running away. They help us when we need it and risk their lives to save ours.

Women’s Baseball Day - On this day in 1875, the first public women’s baseball game was played in Springfield, Illinois. The fans were charged an entrance fee and the women were paid to play. So it was seriously legit for that time. The teams were named the Blondes and the Brunettes. Really? Yes, really. Well, remember that this was in 1875 and women still wore dresses that covered every inch of their bodies and still really couldn’t do much of anything without permission from their husbands or fathers.

I’m On Top Of It Day - Created by Cozi and celebrated on the second Monday in September, this is a day that is all about getting control of your life by selecting one thing and organizing it. That is especially important this time of year for families with kids in school because it’s the start of a new school year and being organized will help you a great deal in getting off to a good and productive year. http://www.cozi.com/im-on-top-of-it-day/

National Boss/Employee Exchange Day – Celebrated on the Monday after Labor Day, this is a day to help you get along with your boss or get along with your employees, if you are the boss. The idea today is to share each other's point of view for a day. I have received no guidance on how to accomplish this seemingly monumental task, but I have faith that you will figure it out.
