I can’t believe that it’s 2009. That’s just crazy.
A kindergarten teacher once told me that if you said “Rabbit, rabbit, rabbit” on the first day of the month, before talking with anyone, you’d have good luck all month. This always posed a problem for me on New Year’s Eve because at midnight, you’re supposed to yell “Happy New Year!” … which means that you’re talking to people before the whole rabbit thing. When I was much younger, I used to say the rabbit thing under my breath REALLY fast and then yell…so I was always a second or so behind everyone else – but I don’t think anyone really noticed. I haven’t done the rabbit thing in years, but I always think of it.
I suppose this is the time to talk about New Year’s resolutions. Mike and I made a family resolution last year to start going to church. And, for the most part, we stuck to it. There were, of course, some Sundays that we didn’t go…but we did it, and we’ll keep going this year as well.
This year, we’re going to make a conscious effort to keep in touch/get back in touch with friends. We’re going to try to get together more often and stop being the hermits that parenthood sometimes forces you into (this might be just perception on our part 😉 )
