Celebrate
… Breakfast, Spooky Friday & Hummers!
Although
September is known as back-to-school week for the kiddies, it’s a crowded party
room for 39 and Holding Virgo and Libra birthday kids!
Feel
like you have a LOT of September friends? “There’s an app for that”! According
to Reader’s Digest, as of 2014 official stats, September
is THE most popular month for births in the U.S. Go figure. It’s all that
cuddling during winter’s hibernation …

Friday
the 13th: I
long ago decided to embrace this date as lucky, rather than unlucky. It just
seems that this is a day which if allowed, will prey on your deepest fears. Key
word in that sentence, “allowed.” Hence, as a youngster I loved Friday the 13ths and still do! I revel in
defying the norm …
The History Channel, however, tells a different
story … Long considered a harbinger of bad luck, Friday the 13th has
inspired a late 19th-century secret society, an early 20th-century novel, a
horror film franchise and not one but two unwieldy
terms—paraskavedekatriaphobia and friggatriskaidekaphobia—that describe fear of
this supposedly unlucky day. Brace yourselves … there’s another one in December.

September 19-22nd: Hummingbird Celebration (week) – The gentle folks in Rockport, Texas love their Hummers! No, not the auto … those amazing little birdies that dive and dart incredibly fast and funny before settling down on a red feeder to feast. Hummingbirds are a source of enjoyment to watch for many, but Rockport has created a whole week of festivities honoring the little darlings. Flutter on over …
September
22-28th: National Employ Older Workers Week – Age discrimination in the job markets is
alive and well … especially for those who claim 39 and Holding! So if
you’re an employer, please consider the vast experience an older worker brings to a
job, along with life lessons learned, and perhaps a long history in their
chosen (or related) profession. Those are extremely valuable attributes you can’t express in a
resume, but will certainly translate to assets for your business. Hire 39ers!!

September
28th: National Drink Beer Day yea! I don’t have a birthday this month, but I can sure
help you September 39ers celebrate with beer in hand! Not that I
need a special day to drink a beer, but it’s way more fun if there is a valid
reason. And I’m sure many pubs around the country will jump on this day with
great specials, like Station 4 in Washington DC. Craft
brews abound at this bubbling bistro. ♪
Cele-brate … dance to the mu-sic! ♪ Bet ya can find one in your neighborhood … or
stay home and create your own Drink Beer Day party
of craft brew-tasting! Whatever you do, stay safe … be smart, don’t drive!
For 39ers who
Follow the Stars
… Most of September belongs to our Virgo 39ers (08/23-09/22) which suits their appetite for control. With sharp, focused minds, Virgo folks may see some money rewards this month. Take advantage of the 14th’s Full Moon and make it happen!
While Virgo is boosting business for big bucks, the
laid-back Librans (09/23-10/22) are quietly entering September for their turn at a bright
month. Keeping it lowkey until mid-September, the Full Moon ushers in a couple
weeks of fun and frolic, earning you the nickname of Brighteyes! Enjoy your
birthday 39ers!
Aging with ATT-i-tude Platitude
Everybody
needs a little lunacy, that’s what frees us from the pain of this world. ~ From Amazon Movie: Shadows in
the Sun (2005); or as a Jimmy Buffett lyric aptly said so long ago, ♪ If we couldn’t laugh | we
would all go insane ♪ (“Changes in Latitudes, Changes in Attitudes,”1977).
Don’t
wait, start now! Happy UN-Birthday SEPTEMBER 39ers: This one’s for you,
kids – Bob, Karen, Jennifer, Thomas, Chad and the twins Scott & Verne!
