I wanted to share how rabbit rabbit worked for me last month... DH brought the outdoor wreath down and we plugged it in to check it and a whole string was out. Rats! That was the pre-wired string it came with which means, chasing down each and every bulb would be nothing short of a nightmare on the thing. Would you believe I replaced the 2nd bulb and it lit? We then brought down our tree and plugged it in. Uh oh, a whole string on the tree was out. Would you believe I replaced the 1st bulb and it lit? I wanted to make a gold table runner for xmas and stopped in a fabric store, nosed around a bit and found this long bolt of gold fabric that had a nice sheen. That'd do nicely. Asked the gal how wide it was...120"!!! Whoa! No seam in the middle of my table runner...it just doesn't get better! But wait...I asked how much? She said $9.99/yard. Wow! So I got 3/4 of a yard ... didn't even have to cut it...just sew it together and the size was perfect. Wahoo! Then I went to sew it together and I had some gold thread on the bobbin, but not much. I was like, shoot...I know I don't have enough bobbin thread to make it.... I "always" run out of bobbin like 12" short of what I need. But to make the table runner, you have to sew the edges, but leave an opening so you can turn the thing inside out. Would you believe the bobbin ran out just where I wanted to leave the opening?!? Thank you rabbit rabbit!!

I did not make it this time. The husband mumbled something to me this morning while I was sleeping. I mumbled, "What? " He said about a noise, did I hear it? I was sleeping, I told him. Then he asked "but what was that? " Then I said something colorful and forgot about the Rabbit Rabbit. Not covered. Probably cursed this month for cursing.

Happy New Year! Bury the money today, while saying I'm burying my problems. After midnight say rabbit rabbit then Happy New Year. Eat lucky foods and bang clean pots. Dig up the money while saying I'm uncovering my fortunes. I think I've got it. For further fun personally I'm also going to shake an empty wallet at the sky. :-). Lots of fun for me. The rest of my family is bordering on ho hum about most holiday and traditional stuff so it's a party of one mostly. I'm fine to have fun on my family's behalf. :-) Also happy to say goodbye 2020! So happy to be rolling in 2021! Hooray! ... Although we did get the vaccine made and vaccinations started in 2020 so maybe that is something. Not nearly enough but something... Here's an article about superstitions around the world. I don't think I'll do all of them :-) I do not want that n'k'd potato. https://blog.atlastravelweb.com/special-interests/festivals-2/unusual-questions-about-new-years-eve-superstitions/

OJ...no slumber required... I did say it this a.m. before I went to sleep. And here I am up again only 4 hrs later. Rats. But I did manage to sign up for my first vaccine anyway....so that's good. DH is still sleeping.... Oh...he woke up and we said it together.
