February 16th Do A Grouch A Favor Day

February holidays

Okay, so determine who you are doing a favor for today you must first figure out who you think is a Grouch! We all know one, even if it is ourselves! The idea is, maybe if you do a favor for someone who is a grouch they won’t be a grouch anymore. (At least for the day) There is also a difference between being a Grouch and being Grumpy. You can be grumpy because you didn’t get enough sleep last night, but a Grouch, that often takes a lifetime. Take the time to find out what made your Grouch a grouch. Maybe there is a good reason, maybe there isn’t. But everyone, even a Grouch, does appreciate a helping hand every once in a while.

How to celebrate – Make a list of all the grouches you know. Determine what makes your grouch a grouch. Find someway today to make a grouch smile.

Oct 15th National Grouch Day

We all know them, some of us may even be one of them… the grouch of the day! Normally this is unacceptable but for today, and today only, it’s okay to be a grouch. The day has been celebrated since 1976 and supposedly came from Sesame Street’s “Grouch”. Could be, but I think there have been grouches for a lot longer time than that. I think a lot of the “Grumpy Old Men” are older than that. A grouch can be funny if you watch them and think about what they are grumpy about. In most cases, it’s nothing at all that makes them that way, it’s just who they are. Well, enjoy your grouch, love them and listen to them complain… after all, they won’t be around forever.

How to celebrate – Record a grouch so they can see how silly they sound. If you wake up grouchy, go back to bed. List all the grouches you know.
