&lt;p&gt;Hello Friends,&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Whose idea do you think it was anyway, to not have any honest-to-goodness-time-off-holidays between New Year&#8217;s Day and Memorial Day?  Honestly, if we want to break the gridlock in Washington, how about a bill or an amendment or something that decrees a few extra holidays during this dry spell?  Fortunately we belong to that group of people known as &#8220;small business owners&#8221;.   Supposedly we&#8217;re a little crazy, we take risks &lt;span class=&quot;caps&quot;&gt;AND&lt;/span&gt; we take matters into our own hands. (We love that part!)  So here&#8217;s our plan:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Until Washington puts a few more national holidays on the calendar, we hereby suggest you all make up your own.  Lets call them Wildcard Holidays!   One in March;  and another in April.  Be sure to invite your family and friends over so they can get in on the fun, too.  But tell them they don&#8217;t have to bring any gifts, or write out any cards.   They just need to come over.  How about  &lt;span class=&quot;caps&quot;&gt;GREAT&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span class=&quot;caps&quot;&gt;MOVIE&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span class=&quot;caps&quot;&gt;MONDAY&lt;/span&gt; when you all watch some classics?   Or &lt;span class=&quot;caps&quot;&gt;JIGSAW&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span class=&quot;caps&quot;&gt;PUZZLE&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span class=&quot;caps&quot;&gt;FRIDAY&lt;/span&gt; where you all look for that one piece that has a red dot and is straight along that one side?  And if you can&#8217;t find the piece you can just drink beer and see red dots in other places.  Or how about a &lt;span class=&quot;caps&quot;&gt;SNOWSHOE&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span class=&quot;caps&quot;&gt;RENDEZVOUS&lt;/span&gt;?  C&#8217;mon! It&#8217;s time we all rise up, take a few days off and break the winter routine. We&#8217;ll show those folks in Washington how to get things done!&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;See you at the party store . . .Wahoo Wildcard!!&lt;/p&gt;

Hello Friends,

Whose idea do you think it was anyway, to not have any honest-to-goodness-time-off-holidays between New Year&#8217;s Day and Memorial Day?  Honestly, if we want to break the gridlock in Washington, how about a bill or an amendment or something that decrees a few extra holidays during this dry spell?  Fortunately we belong to that group of people known as &#8220;small business owners&#8221;.   Supposedly we&#8217;re a little crazy, we take risks AND we take matters into our own hands. (We love that part!)  So here&#8217;s our plan:

Until Washington puts a few more national holidays on the calendar, we hereby suggest you all make up your own.  Lets call them Wildcard Holidays!   One in March;  and another in April.  Be sure to invite your family and friends over so they can get in on the fun, too.  But tell them they don&#8217;t have to bring any gifts, or write out any cards.   They just need to come over.  How about  GREAT MOVIE MONDAY when you all watch some classics?   Or JIGSAW PUZZLE FRIDAY where you all look for that one piece that has a red dot and is straight along that one side?  And if you can&#8217;t find the piece you can just drink beer and see red dots in other places.  Or how about a SNOWSHOE RENDEZVOUS?  C&#8217;mon! It&#8217;s time we all rise up, take a few days off and break the winter routine. We&#8217;ll show those folks in Washington how to get things done!  

See you at the party store . . .Wahoo Wildcard!!
