I am TERRIBLE at remembering dates.
Absolutely horrible.
I have to count on my knuckles in order to remember the date of my own anniversary. I know it's the last day of July. But, which is the last day? The 30th or the 31st? or recite the ditty:
30 days hath September,
April, June and November,
All the rest have 31,
Excepting February alone
(And that has 28 days clear,
With 29 in each leap year).
So... I celebrate birthdays and anniversaries when I remember them. Or not. I just hope that those folks celebrating remind me when there's one that should be noted.
The one I missed this week (the 8th)- was my sister's. Anniversary.
Happy Anniversary N & D! I heard you went to Florida? She forgot to tell me that they had plans! Not surprisingly... she doesn't always remember these things either. Amazing that any of us K's ever get any event celebrated properly.
Regardless..... there is a big... I mean BIG... I mean REALLY REALLY REALLY BIG Anniversary I'm not supposed to forget this year. Heck! If my siblings and I can ever stop long enough to communicate- we might even plan a party for it! But.. in the meantime- I created a countdown WIDGET (see it over in the next column?) to reinforce it to me everytime I log on.
Here's to hoping that I remember my Mom & Dad's 50th Anniversary! It's on Christmas, by the way!
I just wish that the geniuses at Apple would figure out a way for me to import dates from emails into my calendar program and could set up reminders that way. Of course.. I'd have to check my email for those reminders. But- HEY! It MIGHT actually help!
And, to all those celebrating anniversaries or birthdays, or special events.... make sure and send me sign as large as a a so as I won't forget!
