Made it through the holiday season. Whether you were at home right here in the United States, at home in Berlin, or deployed forward at some FOB I do hope that everyone had a wonderful time. Today is Presidents Day here in the United States pretty much that's it for holidays until Memorial Day.
Of course, we have Easter, St. Patrick's Day, and Earth Day between now and then. In the meantime you can't forget Sunday March 14th that's when Daylight Saving Time starts (Spring Forward...which means that those on CQ get one less hour of duty but if you are up late it means one less hour of sleep, as well).
Better not forget Sunday May 9th is Mothers Day. Of course, the start of parade season begins with Armed Forces Day and this year Monday May 31st is Memorial Day.
While there might not be any more Federal (day off) holidays between now and the end of May there is still plenty to celebrate. Heckm if you need an excuse celebrate then pick any day and celebrate or wait until International Polar Bear Day on February 27 or April 29 as it is National Shrimp Scampi Day.
Enjoy this Presidents Day and remember Spring begins on Saturday, March 20th.
