Sometimes my mind won’t shut off. Especially when I run out of my anxiety medicine. That’s when Rich makes me cups of hot chamomile tea and I come up with all kinds of ideas to write about. I came up with a challenge to share.

Believe it or not, March 1 is just around the corner. It’s time to start thinking Spring. Yes, maybe I am jumping ahead, but I am anxious after all. The chamomile does not calm me down as much as Rich thinks it does.

I went to the National Day Calendar website and looked up National Days in March. I do this sometimes to get writing ideas. Here is my challenge to all my followers. I picked the one topic that I thought would be the funnest or the easiest or that I just wanted to choose. (Some days have several titles).

Your job is to write about the topic. Anything that comes to mind. It can be serious or funny. I hope everyone participates. I think this is a great way to rack our brains. You are welcome for the ideas. Happy writing.

March 1 — National Self-Injury Awareness Day —

Let’s hear about all those self-inflicted injuries that could have been prevented with a little common sense.

March 2 — National Old Stuff Day —
