lizzybuffy200815 – Brutus Day: Et tu, Brutus? Have you ever (figuratively) stabbed someone in the back? Has someone stabbed you in the back (also figuratively, unless someone actually stabbed you in the back)?
I have not stabbed anyone (front or back.) I was, sort of, by a former co-worker after I left the job (I was told by someone else,) so it did not really effect me, just burned some bridges that I never planned to cross again.
16 – Sleep Awareness Week: Poor sleep is heavily linked to weight gain, decrease concentration and productivity, increase the risks of heart diseases and strokes, is connected to depression, and can affect emotional and social interactions. Do you get enough sleep most nights? Do you suffer from any sleep-related problems, e.g. insomnia, sleep apnea, etc.? Do you try to stick to a regular sleep routine (same time to bed and waking up), even on weekends?
It really depends on the night. I try my best to wind down in the evening and then read before bed. Most of the time, it works, sometimes it does not. Sunday night tends to be the worst night...
I get up on MWF at 4:30AM, so I turn the light out at 9 every weeknight and usually by 10 on weekends. I get up at 5-5:30 on Tu, Th, and Su and try not to go past 6 on Sa. I think it makes it harder on the days I have to get up if I deviate too much. Most nights I get between 7-8 hours.
17 – Saint Patrick’s Day: is this something you celebrate or is it just another day for you?
18 – Quilting Day: The oldest known quilting dates from 3400 BC! Has anyone ever made you a quilt or have you made your own? Have you ever bought a hand-made quilt?
19 – International Read To Me Day: created to boost literacy this day isn’t just for children. When was the last time you read out loud to someone? What was it you read? Did someone read aloud to you when you were a child? Some couples read to each other – if you have a significant other, is this something you do?
20 – International Day of Happiness: this was created by the United Nations to spread the idea that happitalism rather than capitalism should be spread around the world. Is happiness a choice? What makes you happy? What little thing can you do to make someone else happy? Did anything occur this month that made you particularly happy?
21 – International Fragrance Day: Many public spaces, at least in North America, have scent-free policies in place due to the number of people who are negatively affected by perfumes and other scented products. Are you negatively affected by other people's colognes/body sprays/after-shave, etc.? Do you use scented products yourself?
22 – World Water Day: 783 million people across the world don’t have access to clean water. What water related activity could you do to celebrate this day? Pledge to conserve water? Go swimming? Donate to a water charity?
23 – Peanut Month: do you like peanuts? Peanut butter?
24 – International Waffle Day: How do you like your waffles? Will you be celebrating today by eating any?
25 – Good Hair Day: apparently GHD straighteners were invented in Yorkshire in 2001 and the GHD stands for Good Hair Day - who knew? Describe your hair. What was your hair like as a child? When do you think your hair was at its best?
26 – Spanish Paella Day: yum or yuck?
27– World Theatre Day: what was the last thing you saw performed in a theatre?
28 – Salt Awareness Week (UK): The recommended intake for salt is 6g per day, pick a meal today and share how much salt there is in it.
29 – World Piano Day: have you ever taken piano lessons? What is your favourite piece of piano music or song?
30 – Virtual Vacation Day: if you could go away right now where would you go?
31 – Crayon Day: have you any fond memories of using crayons? What were your favourite colours?
I have not stabbed anyone (front or back.) I was, sort of, by a former co-worker after I left the job (I was told by someone else,) so it did not really effect me, just burned some bridges that I never planned to cross again.
