Walking home
from the school bus stop, a shiny copper penny gleamed on the road. As I picked it up I recited, “Find a penny,
pick it up, and all say you’ll have good luck.” I laughed to myself as my next thought was
that my germiphobe husband would have probably had a heart attack on the spot
if he saw me touch that filthy, germ infested coin. And he would have been laid out in the coffin
when I sat on the ground to get a photo!
Do you avoid
walking under ladders and ‘knock on wood’?
Do you pick up abandoned pennies on the ground ? I read that if someone has a bad Friday the
13th, they may stress about all Friday the 13th's regardless of
the fact that the ones before were pretty uneventful. I usually have good Friday
the 13th's. Do you?
What are your superstitions?
I used to believe in superstitions...don't sit a hat on the bed, don't sweep someone's feet, and a man has to be the first one who enters the house on New Year's. And I have broken my share of mirrors. And He still keeps on blessing me. ;)
ReplyDeleteI haven't heard of a man entering the house on New Years! I really don't pay much attention to superstitions either. I walk under ladders, I've broken mirrors and I actually like Friday the 13th. But whenever I find a penny, I always say that little rhyme which is etched in my brain! And I have to say that I too feel blessed. Thanks for stopping by Michelle! :)
