FOUR REASONS TO CELEBRATE
It used to be that checking off ten items from the to-do list in a day was cause for celebration. Nowadays, we might as well do a happy dance when we can secure our favorite brand of toilet paper as the supply chain improves. This week, we have four wonderful reasons to celebrate. We've got Teacher Appreciation Week, Cinco de Mayo, National Nurse's Day and, of course, Mother's Day! Whatever your reason, or maybe you have something completely different in mind, take some time to celebrate yourself and those you care about most.
