NATIONAL UPSY DAISY DAY

Each year on June 8, National Upsy Daisy Day is set aside to encourage you to face the day positively and to get up ‘gloriously, gratefully and gleefully’ each morning.
Every day is a gift and if we remember that as we rise each morning, it will help us carry a good attitude throughout the day, whatever the day may bring us.  Life is full of challenges and bumps in the road, and it is our attitude that helps us over the bumps and through the challenges to move onward with a smile.
Give it a try.  Be grateful and thankful for what you do have such as a bed to sleep in, food to eat, friends and family. Try a smile and see how it feels.  It may surprise you that it feels good on the inside also and how other people will smile back.  You may just brighten up their day!   Upsy Daisy!

NATIONAL NAME YOUR POISON DAY

National Name Your Poison Day is observed each year on June 8.  Over the years, bartenders have been known to use the phrase, “name your poison,” when asking patrons what they would like to drink.  This observation celebrates that phrase and is a day to commemorates making a choice or a decision.
It may be a simple choice to make, or it might be a difficult decision that requires a lot of thought.
The origin of the phrase “name your poison” is unknown.  It is believed when it was first used, it referred to making a choice from a poor collection of options.  It suggests whichever selection was made would be a bad one. Hence, the word “poison” in the phrase.
