Okay, I'm a complete idiot! I completely messed up the when of Veterans Day here in the States. I thought, like most holidays, it would observed today, since generally these things are tacked onto weekends. But this one is observed on the actual day, which is highly appropriate. So while we haven't done as much over the weekend (I think some communities do have their Veterans' Day parades on Saturday), there will be observations/ceremonies etc tomorrow, and the federal government offices closed, no mail service, etc etc (although there is school, much to my daughter's disgust). I don't know why I'm so messed up on my dates with it this year. Maybe because last year it actually fell on a Monday, so I assumed it would be celebrated on a Monday every year? Who knows.
And now I have to go walk down the driveway in the rain to go get the mail that I didn't think was delivered today. Sheesh. LOL
