Okay, so there are people who are superstitious ….they stay indoors on Friday 13th, don’t walk under ladders, never put new shoes on a table …..etc ….
Then there are people who know about such superstitions but don’t take that much notice of them ….until maybe something happens to them which is in a superstition.
Finally there are people who think it’s all a load of codswallop !
No truth in any of it .
Me …..I don’t necessarily believe, but I’m not taking any chances….new shoes don’t go on a table, a pinch of salt goes over the shoulder if it’s spilt etc.
I don’t lie awake worrying about things though ….
However, yesturday was Friday 13th
…..and our electric blanket broke !
Which one of those are you ?

I received a letter from my eye doctor stating that despite the fact that I have medical insurance for seniors, I have to pay a small amount of money for the eye exam.

That's not good ....but I suppose if it's only a small amount it's ok....

We have had it less than a year so it should still be ok

I don't want to take any chances either. I don't go out so unless it's online or here at the apartment it's not an issue. I find some of the stories interesting through.
I hope you find a good deal on a new blanket.

@Traceyjayne - We have both an example in our family, Friday 13th does not bring bad luck.

Friday is the day of Goddess Laskmi in India. And many Indians offer puja to the Goddess in that day and think it auspicious.
