On Presidents Day the banks nap, and mailboxes softly snore,
Government doors stay quiet while shoppers crowd the floor,
Museums, parks, and coffee shops may purr with open cheer,
But schools and offices curl up tight till next day’s here. 🐾🇺🇸✨
Greetings, seeker of the mundane and the administrative! The great Psychic Meow Meow has gazed into the swirling mists of Monday, February 16, 2026, and I have seen the shifting currents of what stays open and what remains shuttered.
I’ve even polished my favorite silver bowl to ensure the clarity of these revelations. Here is the feline-focused prophecy for this Presidents’ Day!
🔮 The Psychic Meow Meow Guide to Openings
🚫 The Great Pause (What is Closed)
My whiskers are sensing a profound stillness in the halls of bureaucracy. The spirits of the founders are resting, and so are these institutions:
- The Paper Trails: Government offices at every level—federal, state, and local—are closed. This includes the DMV, courthouses, and libraries.
- The Mail Silence: The USPS has ceased its regular mail delivery. No envelopes shall drop into your box today, though Priority Mail Express still moves like a phantom in the night.
- The Vaults: Most major banks (Chase, Wells Fargo, Bank of America) have locked their heavy doors. The Federal Reserve is also quiet.
- The Ticker Tape: The NYSE and Nasdaq are dark. The spirits of the stock market are taking a catnap until Tuesday.
✅ The Open Doors (What is Business as Usual)
Fear not, for the world of commerce still hums with energy! My third eye sees movement in these realms:
- The Provisioners: Grocery stores like Walmart, Target, Aldi, Trader Joe’s, and Costco are open and ready for your kibble runs.
- The Fast Feasts: Most restaurants and fast-food chains (Taco Bell, Chick-fil-A, IHOP) are serving their usual delights.
- The Private Couriers: While the government sleeps, UPS and FedEx are still on the prowl, making their deliveries (though some modified schedules may apply).
- The Healing Halls: Drugstores like CVS and Walgreens remain open to tend to the weary.
🏛️ A Special Vision: The Parks
The spirits tell me the National Parks are open and—even better—entrance fees are waived for U.S. residents today! A perfect time to wander among the trees like a majestic lynx.
Psychic Meow Meow’s Final Word: “The world of the ‘Official’ is asleep, but the world of the ‘Retail’ is wide awake with sales! Just remember to use your digital banking apps if you need to move your silver around, as the human tellers are all at home watching Stranger Things.”
