These days, often called the post-holiday \u201cdoldrums\u201d are typically considered to be a bit of a \u201cslog\u201d: decorations are down and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.priceselfstorage.com\/\">taken to your storage unit<\/a>, friends and family have gone back home, gifts are put away (or returned), kids are back to school, we\u2019re back to work, and everyone\u2019s on a diet! Yuck!<\/p>\n<p>Take heart; you may be missing out on lots of reasons to celebrate (yes, perhaps even to party a bit) that you weren\u2019t even aware of. After all, who says January can\u2019t be a fun month, too? Here is a mere sampling of the golden opportunities that can give you every chance to plan entertaining times:<\/p>\n<h2>January All-month Named Celebrations<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li>National Oatmeal Month (Because, maybe just one more batch of cookies wouldn\u2019t hurt, after all.)<\/li>\n<li>National Soup Month (Now you\u2019ll know what to do with the turkey carcass or the ham bone next year.)<\/li>\n<li>Hot Tea Month (Especially good if anyone in your house has the winter sniffles.)<\/li>\n<li>National Hobby Month (How about a family hobby night where everyone can get creative?)<\/li>\n<li>National Blood Donor Month (Help build back the depleted blood supply, if you are well and able.)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>January Day Named Celebrations<\/h2>\n<p>(Make note of dates already passed for next year)<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>January 3 \u2013 Festival of Sleep Day (Yay!) and Fruitcake Toss Day<\/li>\n<li>January 4 \u2013 Trivia Day (Does anyone still have their old Trivial Pursuit game handy? Now\u2019s the time to bring it out.)<\/li>\n<li>January 6 \u2013 Bean Day and Cuddle Up Day<\/li>\n<li>January 8 \u2013 Bubble Bath Day (Who wouldn\u2019t love this?)<\/li>\n<li>January 10 \u2013 Houseplant Appreciation Day (Give your indoor plants some TLC!)<\/li>\n<li>January 14 \u2013 Dress Up Your Pet Day (Only for cooperative pets, of course.)<\/li>\n<li>January 15 \u2013 National Hat Day (This is a great photo opportunity to don the awful hat you got as a gift, right before you throw it away.)<\/li>\n<li>January 17 \u2013 Ditch New Year\u2019s Resolutions Day (Yes, you now have permission!)<\/li>\n<li>January 19 \u2013 National Popcorn Day (Pop up some fun flavored varieties, and munch a bunch.)<\/li>\n<li>January 20 \u2013 Penguin Awareness Day (Seems only fair, since they entertain us so much.)<\/li>\n<li>January 21 \u2013 National Hugging Day (Use your own discretion.)<\/li>\n<li>January 23 \u2013 National Pie Day (That diet thing is getting old, anyhow.)<\/li>\n<li>January 24 \u2013 National Compliment Day (This is one we could benefit from every month.)<\/li>\n<li>January 28 \u2013 Fun at Work Day (Give it a try, at least. And if you are among the lucky people who work in a great environment, it will be easy.)<\/li>\n<li>January 29 \u2013 National Puzzle Day (Grab some of those old puzzles you have in storage and bring them out for a bit of fun!)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>With so many available options, wouldn\u2019t it make sense to pick a couple and invite some friends over to enjoy a winter\u2019s afternoon or evening of good company and laughter? And don\u2019t feel constricted by \u201cnamed\u201d days; there\u2019s no reason you can\u2019t create your own January celebration. Get your imagination cranked up!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Congratulations on making it through the first two weeks of January!
