Happy ST. Stephen's Day!

"You can have, do or be anything you want."
Joe Vitale
Today, December 26th, is St. Stephen's Day. Who knew?
I kind of feel bad for the guy. The day after Christmas? No wonder he gets overlooked. Although not in Alsace-Moselle,Austria,The Balearic Islands,Bosnia, Herzegovina,Catalonia,Croatia,the Czech Republic, Denmark, Estonia, Finland, Germany, Hungary, the Republic of Ireland, Italy, Luxembourg, Macedonia, Montenegro, Norway, the Philippines, Poland, Romania, Serbia, Slovakia, Slovenia, Sweden, Ukraine, and Switzerland.Some countries such as Australia, Canada, South Africa and the United Kingdom,celebrate Boxing Day today.Since I was never a fan of Boxing Day, I am choosing to recognize today as St. Stephen's with the Baltic States .
I think we can start some new traditions if we can get enough people involved!
Who knows, maybe someday it will be recognized right up there with Festivus and Groundhogs Day!
I don't know about you, but I can certainly use a day off after Christmas.Of course next year that day will happen to fall on Shabbat so there you go,the extra day off!
In case you haven't picked up on it, I can really use another day off. We are down a driver this week, so my Friday will once again be spent working.I'm a little beat up and an off day with nothing planned and no responsibilities will be a welcome gift. Marking my calendar....Friday January 3rd!
Anyone taking bets as to whether or not that actually happens?
We'll just have to wait and see.
