DIANE'S CORNER ... Celebrate Social Security Day
Image result for Social Security Day gif
Wherever we are and whatever we do we’re a small part of a greater society and there’s no better indicator of our togetherness than a social security system, which is why we should celebrate Social Security Day.
Anyone can fall on hard times, or have a period during which a little help doesn’t go amiss, which is why these support systems exist. A good way to celebrate Social Security Day is to think about the more unfortunate members of society and do something for them.

DAILY SQU-EEK



IF YOUR BIRTH DATE IS AUGUST 14

you are likely to be complicated, Leo. You are strong but with others, you are a force to be reckoned with. You are an emotional person but you seem to capture the attention of others and they want to be around this magnificent lion. If it is necessary to perform menial tasks, you will do so but grudgingly. You have a certain way about you that the camera loves. Your heart is one the most important organs in the body. The person born on this day should take care of it physically and emotionally, as both can be affected areas of concern.
