Celebrating St. Patrick's Day...And Also The Day Before


 I know, I know...it's a day early, but many of you (my dozens of readers...) may not see this until tomorrow and tomorrow is St. Patrick's Day, the 2022 version.

I don't do it often, but occasionally I'll check back on previous blog posts to see what happened years ago. I did a quick search of my blogs for "St. Patrick's Day." Looks like those words appeared in one post, a post from 2013. Not being Irish, we don't usually celebrate the day very much, other than wearing a bit of green. And my wife occasionally makes corn beef and cabbage. That's about it.

But something happened back in 2013 that I thought was a wonderful memory for our family. My nephew got engaged. In some ways the nine years have gone by quickly, but it also feels like they'd be celebrating a greater anniversary number. The post highlights other couples who chose the Irish Day as a day to get engaged.

In an interesting turn of events, if you read that original blog post from 2013 which you can access by clicking: HERE, you'll see that the couple was actually engaged on March 16th, 2013, not the 17th, so unbeknownst to me, today is the real anniversary for them.

Funny how things work sometimes.
