National Dress Up Your Pet Day. No way would I even attempt to dress up my cats.
National Hot Pastrami Sandwich Day. I’ll just stick with my peanut butter sandwiches and my jelly sandwiches (I don’t do them together in the same sandwich).
Ratification Day. Ratification Day on January 14th annually recognizes the act the officially ended the American Revolution. The day commemorates the ratification of the Treaty of Paris on January 14, 1784, at the Maryland State House in Annapolis, Maryland by the Confederation Congress.
Since the Declaration of Independence was signed, nearly eight years had passed. Through the treaty, Great Britain recognizes the United States as a sovereign entity. It is the most enduring premise of the treaty. The treaty also defined boundaries, specifically the Northwest Territory which included Ohio and rich prairie land of Indiana and Illinois. Michigan, Wisconsin, and parts of Minnesota were also included. Several of the nation’s founding fathers negotiated the peace treaty, including John Adams, John Jay, and Benjamin Franklin.
To bbear from yesterday’s comments. Please keep up the good fight.
eladee AKA Wally said it well yesterday with this reply: “Just take every single day and make the most of it. I know a woman who defied all odds and lived many more years than expected. Prayers going up for you.”
It brings to mind something that happened several years ago. I was visiting someone at a nursing home when a woman who was staying in a room across the hall from the one where I was visiting came out of her room, doing a sort of dance as she exclaimed, “The doctors said I was never going to walk again!” And she pranced around more. I don’t know how old she was, but she was probably in her 70’s at least. She defied her doctors and was walking and dancing. I never learned her name, but she will always be an inspiration to me.
There was also a neighbor across the street from me who had cancer. Her doctors gave her about 6 months to live. She was a single mom with 2 kids who were still young teens. But she defied her doctors and lived a few more years – long enough to see both kids graduate high school.
My uncle Edward (my dad’s brother) was in the hospital with all sorts of problems, not doing well so we put him in Hospice care. Hospice, as I’m sure you know, is for people who are not expected to live long. He did so well there, they sent him home, still getting Hospice care in his home. But he lived longer than the hospital doctors expected. He did go back into Hospice months later, where he eventually died. But he fought the good fight and defied doctors and proved them wrong.
Keep up the fight and make your doctor wrong. We need you here!

Smart move, mousie. On another note, saw a squirrel and a junco while out walking today.
