April Showers Bring May Flowers

 If you’re in the Pacific Northwest, you may still continue to see showers in our May future.

What types of “flowers” can we find in May? How about:

May 3 – National Teacher Day – Thank you to all the teachers that continue to work with our future. 

May 4 – Star Wars Day – May the 4th be with You. Phrase was first recorded on May 4, 1979, but it had nothing to do with Star Wars. 

May 5 & 6 – Star Wars Day I – Revenge of the 5th or some way Revenge of the 6th because as the case may be, in regard to the Sith, “Always two there are.”

May 8 – Mothers’ Day – this can be an individual that has been a mother-figure to you, too. 

May 12 – Limerick Day – write your own and post on Social Media 

May 30 – Memorial Day – US federal holiday to remember those that have lost their lives while serving in the armed forces. 

Get Caught Reading Month – What are some books to read? 

  • The Science of Star Wars because on page 94 of this 1999 book, you will find the reference to “May the 4th be with you.” 

  • Health Insurance Secrets Revealed because it easily explains health insurance in <100 pages. 

  • Symbiotic Business because it shows how non-profit and for-profit businesses can change the world together. 

  • 1001 Ways to Rock Your Life because Craig Duswalt was my guide and inspiration for writing and publishing my first book.

  • Clean Cocktails because I love a good cocktail and this female author is amazing at bringing cocktails to life while keeping them clean.

Whatever “flower” you choose to seek out in May, may it be filled with fun and memories.
