We all know the little ditty we learned in grammar school, “April showers bring May flowers”, but I guess it depends on where you live whether those showers are welcome! But here in the great southwest, we can’t wait to get rain!
April is a month full of fun and traditional dates! And what better way to start a month than with a humor-filled day on April fool’s day, the first of April! Now, when is the last time you pulled a great joke on a friend or relative? Has it been a while? Well, get busy! You get a day to play a gag on that person in your life that can take a joke!
One day that is no joke is the 17th where we have a deadline to file our last year’s taxes to good old Uncle Sam. Phooey!
The big traditional religious days in April are, of course, Easter and Passover! So, put on your fancy clothes and attend a service! Ladies, when is the last time you wore an Easter Hat? Easter colors are all aglow with all the paisley blue, purple, pinks, and yellows! Of course, we also have our large furry friend paying his yearly visit with Easter Eggs in his big basket. Do you still have kiddies having their Easter Egg hunt? Now, you just know that almost everyone takes a bite out of the chocolate bunnies’ ears on that first bite.
The fourth Thursday each April is “Take your daughter to work” day. Don’t forget!
