Okay for once I’m on time…
I am soooo ready for this year to be on its way. It’s been one heck of a year but I have MAJOR plans for 2007!!! Graduating this year, finally getting a real job, new apartment… life is sweet.
Some of you already know that I may be called up to the Army for full time duty (in the States). Downside is that I can’t start my residency for a year (maybe even 2). Bright side (minor brightside) is that I could pay off ALL of my debt, get a new car (the Focus just is NOT a grown woman’s car!), send my brother back to school, get back into shape and get the heck out of the military with my sanity.
I got my wig tossed for the big nite tonight. Can I just tell y’all how long it’s been since I could afford a professional job! Not doing anything really exciting. My family has a big NYE party at my mother’s cousin’s house. Coach and I are spending it together so that’s all that matters. I’ve been making sure all of my New Year’s superstitions are straight. My family believes in a clean house, no trash in the house, money in your hand at midnight. Not to mention the traditional black eyed peas and greens with dinner. A house full of college educated, professional folks but we still have our superstitions….
Question: Anybody else have interesting New Years superstitions?
Glad your 2007 is off to such a great start. Kudos on getting out of the military with your sanity!!! My family is college educated and yes we still have cabbage and black eye peas for New Years dinner. LOL.

Well…we GOT to have our black eyed peas and cabbage, of course. And the clean house thing too. I hate to clean but it was “picked up” until it gets really cleaned this week and I think that’s good enough. ROFL!
What did your dress look like? Did you get all sparkly?
