Goodbye 2013, hello 2014
Goodbye 2013. Hello 2014.
I typically prefer the even-numbered years. Is that weird? I guess just the word "odd" attached to a number puts it at a disadvantage. But, come on, 13. That's the universally worst number of all numbers. Ok, maybe 666 is worse.
So I will be glad to say hello to 2014 in just two days. No worries about forgetting to write the new year on checks because nobody uses checks anymore. Unless it's the stereotypical older woman holding up the grocery line writing one. Annoying because it reflects on all us older women.
Truthfully, I love a new year, odd or even numbered. New years hold promise. Celebrating their arrival gives us pause to look forward and forward is a good direction to be heading...
....especially if you are a young couple expecting child in the spring - Jenny and Michael.
... especially if you are a young couple raising daughters ages 2 and 4 - Andrea and Jack.
... especially if you are a young lawyer at the beginning of a career in public service - John.
I especially look forward to sharing the promise of another new year with my beloved Paulie.
