We all know if you’ve been following our Christmas Gift Guide 2022: Page A Day Calendars, Calendars.com and Workman.com have sent me a variety of calendars in exchange for a spot in this years Gift Guide.
I would like to share 365 New Words-A-Year Page-A-Day Calendar 2023 which Charlie can use in his Homeschool Language Arts Class to enhance his vocabulary. While stumping David and I on all the new words he will be learning.

Uncle John’s Bathroom Reader is a desk calendar you will find set upstairs in the boys restroom. At times it seems like David and Charlie are taking turns sleeping in the Restroom. Now they will have something to entertain them.
If there not careful I might put Uncle John’s Bathroom Reader in the Guest Restroom. Keeping our guest entertained. First I have a question for you. Which restroom do you think Uncle John’s Bathroom Readers should be put in? Upstairs or downstairs and why?
For the 68% of people who read in the bathroom, this is the calendar that deserves a special place on top of the tank. Each page features a nugget of pure fun. Wacky Legal Briefs, like the Dutch man who tried to legally change his age from 69 to 49 to be more appealing to women. (Case thrown out.)
“Only in Florida” headlines: Thousands of Gun Owners in Florida Planning to “Shoot Down” Hurricane Irma. Plus the GoBidet Handheld Bidet and other Toilet Tech, 21-Flush Salutes, and food flops:
Did you know that in 2014, McDonald’s test-marketed bubble-gum-flavored Broccoli? Ugh. Not something I would like to try especially since I hate hate hate Broccoli. How about you?

365 Stupidest Things Ever Said Page-A-Day Calendar 2023
By Ross Petras, Kathryn Petras, Workman Calendars
Another year of celebrity gaffs, malapropisms, and facepalm moments that will make you cringe—then laugh at the utter inanity of it all.
Badly worded governmental guidance: “You’ve got to have the get-up-and-go to stay at home during this threat.”—Connecticut governor Ned Lamont. Contradictory sports commentary: “He’s had his ups and downs but he’s been consistent.”—auto racing commentator Sally Nugent.
Plus head-scratching headlines (POLICE: HORSE GIVEN VERBAL WARNING IN RUNAWAY INCIDENT), nonreassuring school signs (Bolton Academy: a Grate Place to Learn), and reasons NOT to call 911: “I got a new phone for Christmas and I wanted to be sure it was working.” Printed on responsibly sourced paper and 100% recyclable.
Thank you,
Glenda, Charlie and David Cates
