It’s fascinating how the months were named and when. I didn’t learn this in high school History class.
When Julius Caesar became Pontifex Maximus, he reformed the Roman calendar so that the 12 months were based on Earth’s revolutions around the Sun. It was a solar calendar, as we have today. January and February were moved to the front of the year, and leap years were introduced to keep the calendar year lined up with the solar year.

I wrote a post about awareness days for years but stopped when my health took a turn for the worst. Now that I’m feeling better you can see a post every month.
It’s great – I did a call out for the migraine awareness month / days, but I didn’t know that there was an international self-care day – I’ll do my best to remember to do a post about it on the 24th – thanks – you’re the best! xx
Awareness days are great, i plan on getting back in the habit of doing a post every month. 🙂
I look forward to it! xx
Thanks 💜💜
I did not know this. Very Insightful … Thanks for Sharing.. Can you believe we are already going to July? This year is flying by so fast. UGH !!!
Have a Blessed Day
It’s been a fast for sure.
Before you know it, Fall will be here and then 🥶😱😶🌫️
I’m already freezing inthe summer so you can imagine what Winters are like. I’ve always been cold natured yet traveled to St. Petersburg, Russia in the mid of Winter with the lack of appropirate clothes. I did okay except for one night I walked to the Ballet and had to take a taxi back.
I feel you. I’m always cold . My wife says I’m like an old man. I wear long sleeves in the summer 😂😂😂 .
Today I’ve had a sweatshirt on and still cold. The house is set at 74 but it feels like it’s 50.
😂🥶
Where have you been? I hope all is well. 🙂
i am around I just needed a break I have so much going on ….. I am getting there 💜💜💜
No hurry!
