A Lot Happening This Week, Hopefully Everyone Finds Something Good

A Busy Week Ahead: November 17th - 23rd

Hello everyone, Leo Parks here with a quick look at what’s happening this week! It feels like there’s so much going on, it’s a little overwhelming, honestly. But in a good way, I think!

Today, November 17th, is National Take A Hike Day – which, you know, sounds lovely. Maybe a little strenuous for me, personally, but good for those who enjoy that sort of thing! It’s also World Prematurity Day and National UnFriend Day. A bit of a mix, isn't it?

Looking ahead, November 19th brings International Men's Day, and World Toilet Day – very important, I’m sure! It’s also Africa Industrialization Day. Quite a diverse range of observances!

Then, on November 20th, we have the Great American Smokeout, Trans Day of Remembrance, Universal Children's Day, World Philosophy Day, and National Stuffing Day. Wow. That’s… a lot. Definitely something for everyone, I guess. I'm planning on maybe having some stuffing… if I can convince my mom to make it.

November 21st is World Hello Day and World Television Day. Seems like a good day to catch up with people, or just relax and watch something on TV. Not a bad idea, really.

And finally, on November 23rd, we observe the International Day for the Elimination of Violence against Women. A very important day for awareness and support.

Plus, it’s worth remembering November is National Diabetes Month, National Adoption Month, and National Native American Heritage Month.

So yeah, a packed week! Hopefully, everyone can find something to celebrate or reflect on. Don't forget to enjoy the seasonal fruits and veggies, like apples and cranberries – and Chrysanthemums are the flower of the month, if you're into that!
