Have you had a good first day, too?
We went out for a walk around town.
Enjoying the fresh air, visiting a shrine and a temple, grabbing some food, eating under the clear sky, moon with us.
Equipping ourselves with a few inevitable lucky charms for 2007. It's the year of the pig, by the way.
Oh, I so much long for the sixth of January... you might know I am a little bit a superstitious girl and can't, just can't do the laundry right now... There is the time that is called the days between the years, beginning after Christmas and ending 6th of January and in Germany it's said that it would bring bad luck if you are doing the laundry during that period of time... I only felt relieved of that burdening superstition when Dagny was a baby and the washing machine could hardly stand still for a single day...
Four more days of piling up ahead... and then... oh, better not think a bout then.
Anybody (von Euch Maedels in Deutschland) else facing this dilemma? Drowning in laundry but not daring to wash?
