It’s almost over…

Mercury retrograde that is. February eleventh is the last day.

And then the next time will be May eighteenth till June eleventh.

yep!

and whether you believe in astrology or not… I don’t think it matters.

I’ve had friends that really can’t stand my “Wiccan ways.” But who did they call after the first issues of the retrograde, yep. LOL

So pay attention, keep a journal, see if it is mercury retrograde or just really bad luck.

Clean Out Your Computer Day
February 9, 2015 in the World

Clean Out Your Computer Day is a day to logically review, and delete old files and programs.

Most of us add programs and files to our computer with reckless abandon. After all, computers have huge storage capacity.  Many of these files and programs are forgotten over time. Overtime they clog memory and cause confusion during retrieval and use of other files. And, some may slow down your computer.

Originally sponsored by the Institute for Business Technology in 2000, as an opportunity for us to remember to cleanup and delete old and unused files. So, get into the spirit of the day, and clean out the old computer.

Toothache Day 2015
February 9, 2015 in the World

Toothache Day is celebrated on February 09, 2015. You should learn something about the reasons of toothache (like dental caries) on this day to avoid an aching pain in or around your teeth. Dental caries is an infection, bacterial in origin, that causes demineralization and destruction of the hard tissues, usually by production of acid by bacterial fermentation of the food debris accumulated on the tooth surface

The severity of a toothache can range from a mild discomfort to excruciating pain, which can be experienced either chronically or sporadically. This pain can often be aggravated somewhat by chewing or by hot or cold temperature. An oral examination complete with X-rays can help discover the cause. Severe pain may be considered a dental emergency.

National Bagels & Lox Day
February 9, 2015 in the USA

Today is National Bagels & Lox Day! A bagel topped with lox (thinly sliced cured salmon) is an iconic Jewish-American dish. Once found only in New York delis, this delicious sandwich is now popular all across the country.

Bagels originated in Poland in the early 17th century. Jewish families often ate bagels on Saturday evenings at the conclusion of the Sabbath because the bagels could be baked very quickly. The bagel symbolizes the circle of life. Lox, which symbolizes the saltiness of tears, is an entirely American invention. It became a popular sandwich filling in the mid 1800s when the transcontinental railroad began shipping barrels of salted salmon to the East Coast.

To celebrate National Bagels & Lox Day, take part in this Jewish-American tradition and enjoy a tasty bagel topped with cream cheese, lox, red onion, and capers!
