NATIONAL PET FIRE SAFETY DAY

National Pet Fire Safety Day on July 15th reminds us to consider our pets when planning fire routes and safety in our homes.

Our pets are as much a part of our family as any other member. This day stresses the importance of protecting them. Taking preventable measures now can both save your home and your pet. Many times our pets can cause a fire if we don’t take the proper precautions.

SOCIAL MEDIA GIVING DAY

Today is Social Media Giving Day on the National Day Calendar and we are encouraging everyone to use social media to make a difference in the world by promoting charitable giving. We are celebrating Social Media Giving Day by using social media to promote generosity and kindness through all of our platforms.

NATIONAL I LOVE HORSES DAY

On July 15 we recognize the love of one magnificent creature on National I Love Horses Day! With over 200 breeds, these spirited animals give humans much to love. Their loyalty and devotion throughout history may only be a fraction of the reasons to love them.

NATIONAL GUMMI WORM DAY

Wiggle your way over to the candy aisle, because July 15th is officially National Gummi Worm Day! It’s the one day of the year where playing with your food isn’t just allowed—it’s highly encouraged. Whether you like them sweet, sour, or stretched to their absolute limits, today we celebrate the creepy-crawly treat that conquered the candy world.

NATIONAL GIVE SOMETHING AWAY DAY

Let’s be honest: most of us are blessed with far more than we actually need to get by. Overflowing closets, stacked pantries, and schedules packed to the brim. But on July 15th, National Give Something Away Day hands us the ultimate golden opportunity to change that. It’s time to share our bounty, clear the clutter, and kickstart a wave of radical generosity!

Feeling Good
Song by Nina Simone

Birds flying high, you know how I feel
Sun in the sky, you know how I feel
Breeze driftin’ on by, you know how I feel
It’s a new dawn
It’s a new day
It’s a new life for me, yeah
It’s a new dawn
It’s a new day
It’s a new life for me, ooh
And I’m feeling good
Fish in the sea, you know how I feel
River running free, you know how I feel
Blossom on the tree, you know how I feel
It’s a new dawn
It’s a new day
It’s a new life for me
And I’m feeling good
Dragonfly out in the sun you know what I mean, don’t you know?
Butterflies all havin’ fun, you know what I mean
Sleep in peace when day is done, that’s what I mean
And this old world, is a new world
And a bold world for me, yeah-yeah
Stars when you shine, you know how I feel
Scent of the pine, you know how I feel
Oh, freedom is mine
And I know how I feel
It’s a new dawn
It’s a new day
It’s a new life for me
I’m feeling good
