Its national milkshake day and national encouragement day and national video game day. So what's your flavour??

I love chocolate milkshakes! I had one yesterday so maybe today I'll encourage someone to buy me another one. I haven't played a video game in awhile.

Otis, I encourage you to buy me a chocolate malted milkshake today.

All!

I love Milkshakes. I go with a nice Banana milkshake

Encouraging people is always my thing

And video games are awesome to play!

What a nice day!!!!

Love a good malted milk shake and after I'm done with the chores? I might have some time to test and play a new game coming out.

I'll have a milkshake. I'm pretty encouraging by nature, so check that one. No gaming today.

Dear Otis,

I am going with the national video games...here's why...

I became concerned when my little god daughter, age nine, seemed consumed by Pokémon while staying with me. I thought it might be forming her brain not-so-wholesome...do we really want our human interactions developed in digital patterns?

She agreed to limit Pokémon, and we creatively did other fun things.

But now, I want to learn more...the upside potential...

Well,so far it looks like milkshakes hands down the winner.    So I'll go along with the hear d and have a vanilla malted. 

Just as I thought, National Encouragement day takes work---and I'm retired

"Make deliberate acts of encouragement providing reassurance and inspiration to people around you. High five someone for a job well done. Take notice when a friend is getting close to a hard-earned goal, encouraging them to keep going.  Send a card or give a call or text to a family member who may be struggling.  Remind them how important they are to you."

So give me a milkshake.

But just so I don't seem uncaring:  Great job, Everybody."

And a video game would be ok, but I would have to go out and buy one.

Encouraging someone comes natural to me.... So I pick that one. :0)

Banana Encouragement Flavour.
