The holiday hoopla of Independence Day is over. Kids are back in school. Yes, it’s September. The 9th month of our calendar year, September was named Septimus, meaning “seventh” in Latin. September was, in fact, the seventh month of the Roman calendar until 46 B.C., but it still kept the same name.
