April 16 is both Good Deeds Day and National Wear Your Pajamas to Work Day, both of which are appropriate for the day after you file your income taxes! Celebrate Good Deeds Day by being kind.

Wear Your Pajamas to Work Day is a great idea if you were up very late completing your tax return. It would feel wonderful to be relaxed and not worry about what to wear to work. However, we advise you check with your employer just in case he or she isn’t celebrating Good Deeds Day.
