….yes, you are right, I failed to note that December was National Bingo Month. Here is the link to prove it and also a listing of all the other celebrations that I failed to write about (about which I failed to write) in Decemeber. Well, there was just so much else going on. I just didn’t have time to note:
National Bathtub Day – 5 – I shower
Pawnbrokers Day – 6 – I preferred St. Nicholas’ DAy
Pearl Harbor Day – 7 – yes, I did miss this.
Personal Passion Day – 9 – I write about knitting every day (almost)
Human Rights Day – 10 – Next year – both worthy causes
Nobel Prize Day – 10
Poinsettia Day – 12 – I bought one – does that count?
One Day! Day – 15 – Any ideas on this one are most welcome!
Boston Tea Party – 16- Does Sarah Palin know about this one?

Wright Brothers Day or Aviation Day – 17 – Many flights did not get off the ground this December
Humbug Day – 21 – Or Read Your Charles Dickens Day
Phileas Fogg Wins a Wager Day – 21 – next year
National Under Dog Day – 21 – maybe next year too
A’ Phabet Day – 25 (as in No “L” Day?)- How can you have a day without “L”ove? – national ‘ove day
National Whiner’s Day – 26 – for what you didn’t get?
Make Up Your Mind Day – 31- I’ll have to think about this one.
Now back to Bingo month. I know that there are a lot of people out there that play Bingo. It’s a “soft” kind of gambling, but to have a whole month dedicated to the promotion of it, is a little sad. Maybe I’m wrong. All comments on Bingo welcome.
The pictures are of elegant people in elegant knits going elegant places – there is more to life than Bingo!
