Good morning! The groundhogs had diverging opinions this morning, with General Beauregard Lee not seeing his shadow and Punxsutawney Phil seeing his. Staten Island Chuck and Woodstock Willie agree with our guy. So, three to one for an early spring… so far. Sir Walter Wally, however, isn’t making a prediction until noon, and he’s apparently
Good afternoon, and happy Good Memory Day! This day is about remembering good moments in our past and making new memories in the future. Lovely, right? Hopefully this gets you thinking about something good that’s happened to you! I’m running very late, and I’m on a mock interview panel in a bit, so I’m going
Good morning! I’m assuming that some of y’all made a resolution to be healthier this year. National Take the Stairs Day is here to help! It’s also, for the record, National Stick to Your Resolution Day, just in case you’re wavering in your resolve. Finally, it’s Hot Tea Day, and I’m currently drinking some because
Good morning, and happy National Bird Day! While you could just watch some birds from your window today and call it good, the American Bird Conservancy hopes you’ll take it a step (or a few more) further and learn more about the issues surrounding all kinds of birds today. I’m setting up a couple of
Good morning-ish! I’m on break, so it was a bit of a surprise that today is Wednesday. I really had no idea what day it was, which is the proper way to celebrate the last week of the year. However, our observance of the day is Tick Tock Day (not to be confused with TikTok,
Well, hello to you all, and a very happy Bill of Rights Day! Here’s the proclamation from President Joe Biden recognizing the importance of the Bill of Rights. Also, you have 9 shopping days until Christmas. Godspeed. Let’s get to the news! Pat Conroy The still-dysfunctional rental aid distribution in Georgia has some families worrying
Good morning! I’m pulling together a short list this morning because 1) two of my coworkers are out with some not-COVID, not-flu nastiness, so I’m running the ship solo and 2) I’ve been on the phone with the Sparta post office this morning. That lady clearly wanted to do anything other than answer my questions,
Hello, and happy December! I’ve always loved this day because it was my grandparents’ wedding anniversary, so it was a special day to bridge the Thanksgiving-to-Christmas gap. It’s also the first day I’ve been able to live in my new (to me) house because I finally got someone to turn on my water yesterday. Moving
Happy Food O’clock! It’s World Peace Day! This is not to be confused with the UN’s International Day of Peace, which is celebrated every September. Nonetheless, Miss Congeniality is always appropriate, but doubly so today. Let’s get to the news, shall we? Pat Conroy Early voting has begun in the runoff races, including the race
Good morning! Happy Sesame Street Day! November 10th has been the day set aside to honor the educational program celebrating its 52nd birthday today. To commemorate the day, I’m sharing the best skit with the best muppet ever: Grover teaching “around,” “over,” “under,” “through,” “near,” and “far.” Yes, Grover is 100% my favorite. I’m going
