BET WE ALL KNOW ONE!


  TUESDAY, OCTOBER 15TH., 2019
   BET YOU KNOW ONE OR TWO!
   
    It's October 15th. A day set aside
to honor......well maybe not honor,
but at least take note of an individual
or individuals we all know and.........
well......we all know.
   This is National Grouch Day!
   Judging from the posts I see on
Facebook every day a lot of people
will be celebrating!
    A Grouch's mission in life is to be
as miserable and grouchy as possible,
and pass that feeling on to everyone else!
     I'm not sure if the trait has to be learned
or just comes natural to some folks. I do
know a few people who seem to work very
hard to maintain their "Grouch status!"
     I know one who works at a convenience
store close to my house. I have stopped
asking how she's doing. Her gloom and
doom answers are not only grouchy,
they hold up the line!  
     According to one website the day was
created for and inspired by Alan Miller, a
retired teacher and chairman of the board
of NAG, (National Association of Grouches).
I was unaware this organization actually
existed. But, since it does, some of those
Facebook posters I mentioned, as well as
that clerk, might want to apply for membership!
     I don't know how we're suppose
to celebrate this day. Maybe we just
congratulate the grouches we know?
    Of course you'll want to be careful if
one happens to be your boss!
     Hope no one congratulates you....and
that all your NEWS is good!
