My wish is that it’s completely green and pure gold for you (and that you don’t get pinched)! 
You know, I remember getting dressed in green and going to the St. Patrick’s Day parade as a kid, but we just don’t do that anymore.
Maybe it’s because St. Patty’s has become more about green beer and partying. Maybe it’s because I don’t have any of my Irish ancestors here in the States. Whatever the reason, it’s just not the same as it used to be.
I think it was much more fun for us as kids. Back then we didn’t know about the “drunkfest” side of the holiday. And I’m just not that into spending a day peeing in shades of green!
As a kid it was about wearing green, coloring your and your dogs fur green, and pinching people who were brave enough to NOT wear green. And while I still wear green, pinch people, and am more than willing to color my pet green for a day, it’s just not the same.
So, for those of you who celebrate by going out to have a few green beers… Cheers! (to you AND your designated driver… hint, hint) 
For those of you who have kids who wanna color the family dog or cat green, you may try reminding them that most pets don’t like to take a bath and recommend maybe a green sweater or a green collar with St. Patrick’s Day balloons tied to it might be a better way to go… I doubt you’ll be able to talk them out of coloring the dog but hey, you can give it a shot right?
No matter what, enjoy the day and have a very happy holiday!
Warm regards,
I'm a passionate, down-to-earth gal who spends as much time as possible making fun of myself and the world around me. I'm a big kid with a lot of thoughts that I don't mind sharing AND, I love to teach. Anything. Everything. As long as it's fun. Warning: I was raised in a VERY sarcastic household so my sense of humor always leans that way. :)
But if I can make you think, make you laugh, or give you a moment to pause... life is good!:D
