Tuesday

 In Japanese culture, "Greenery day", today, is a time to commune with nature
and to be thankful and appreciative of it's abundance.  
The card for today is more "Greenback day".

Sunday, it's Tell a Story Day


Once upon a time there lived a bee.  He loved to play the guitar.

It appears to be a random letter day (instead of a red letter day)...

Happy Passover, Easter, and Eostre


The Easter Bunny's origins are rooted in 13th-century pagan Germany: The Teutonic deity Eostra was the goddess of spring and fertility, and feasts were held in her honor on the Vernal Equinox. Her symbol was the rabbit because of the animal’s high reproduction rate.  As Christianity spread across Europe, the pagan festival of Ēostre was assimilated into Christian culture, including its symbols of the rabbit and the egg. The spring celebration of Easter, which even takes its name from Ēostre, was born.

oops, this will be both Wednesday and today...I missed yesterday altogether!

 This was Wednesday's card, and I think waking up to snow yesterday just put it right out of my head.
and this is for today, which is officially Blah, Blah, Blah Day, so maybe a bunch of asemic writing will fit the blah blah blah part well...

Monday

I've been enjoying the peepers all weekend, our first daffodils are out, and I'm sure I saw a dragon last night!

April 12th





It's not very related to this card, but today is Big Wind Day, the highest wind ever recorded, 231 MPH, on top of Mt. Washington in 1934 - and my pop, Wendell Stephenson,  was one of the guys doing the recording.  Here's to you Pappy, remembering you today!

Wednesday

On this day in 1963, Winston Churchill became the very first person to become an honorary citizen (posthumously)  That feels sort of paranormal...
