Did you know that today is New Year’s Day?
March 1st was celebrated as the beginning of the new year in the United States and Great Britain until 1752!
Think about it…
Septem-ber (Latin for 7), Octo-ber (eighth), Novem-ber (ninth), Decem-ber (tenth). January and February were added later.
I think it makes much more sense. March 1st unofficially marks the end of winter. Here in Kansas City, the cardinals have just started to sing.
Why am I writing all of this?
Because March 1st also happens to be our anniversary!
24 years…and we still like each other a bunch!
We celebrated with dinner at The Longhorn Steakhouse. I chose that because my wife’s diet allows her to eat steak!
And speaking of her diet, she is looking pretty fine. She wore a pair of her daughter’s jeans on our date! Yahoo!
