Daily Life Challenges – Random Holidays

I compiled a list of random holidays to celebrate with your family. The challenge is to take a few of these prompts and incorporate them into your life calendar. Doing something out of the regular routine pulls our brains out of ‘autopilot. So you can stop and create a memory on what might otherwise be a ‘regular day’.

Take my word for it, it doesn’t take much to make an ordinary day extraordinary.
