Hug a Plumber Day.
Television is like the invention
of indoor plumbing.
It didn’t change people’s habits.
It just kept them inside the house.
~ Alfred Hitchcock
Kind of lame quote for Plumber Day,
but it was the best I could find!
Today we say happy birthday to Renee Zellweger (1969), Ella Fitzgerald (1917), and Al Pacino (1940). I’d love to sit down with Ella. What a life she has lived, what changes she has seen.
The ladies of the Red Hat Society hold their annual celebration today. Quite the spunky group sprung from the love of life that says, I may be getting older but I don’t have to act old. Under the auspices of refusing to accept getting older, I was cartwheeling at the beach.
It is also Pretzel Day. If you can bear to hear a Christmas song in the spring, you’ll find a Pretzel Smiley in the bakery section of the music video we made a while back for the holidays.
It’s also Eye Health Day over at a Month of Smiley Silliness. I hope you’ll check out all the silly Smileys and accompanying quotes on the monthly Smiley calendar. Today there’s one from the eye doctor’s.I’ve had challenge after challenge with my eyes, making finding eye doc Smileys a piece of cake. I have to say, I’m mighty glad that I came with two eyes–so nice to have a back up when one falters!
BTW, the Smileys on a month full of Smiley Silliness are all different than the ones you see in the Daily Smiley.
