October Calendar

October is one of my favorite months . There are tons of things to do , see, and celebrate in October . I am leaving a list of special days you might want to check out for yourself , below . If you know of any other holidays in October NOT listed , please feel free to send them in to the comments section . 

Several of my personal favorites are: Bald and Free Day Oct. 7th and 14th. Then there is the Mad Hatter Day on the 6th .  World Smile Day is also on the 7th . Now that is a very important day!Curious Events Day is a very curious day don't you think ? What happens on that day ? We will have to wait until Oct. 9th to find out I guess. But maybe the most important day is the Moment Of Frustration Day on Oct.12 , which is also Columbus Day in the USA . I am pretty sure I won't be celebrating Moldy Cheese Day on Oct. the 9th.and I think I will pass on World Egg Day too. But on the other hand , Count Your Buttons Day might be a good day if you are worried about your buttons .  Babbling Day has a very special place in my heart just because I love to babble on and on so much . Have you ever noticed that ? LOL !! Which is your favorite day ?
