Manic Monday - Two


Hello everyone! I took a blogging break for a couple of days while recovering from the flu, but I wanted to get a Manic Monday post up because I haven’t missed one yet!

This week’s Manic Monday word is two. This makes me wonder how many of you believe in lucky numbers. I’ve always considered two my lucky number. My birthday is 2-22-72, so that started me off right there. I’ve already told Eric he better already be planning a big blow out bash of a party for my 50th birthday, which falls on 2-22-22. That will be fun!

I have two kids. Eli was born at exactly 2:00 p.m., and Georgia was exactly two weeks early. I could probably name lots of other “twos” in my life. But I’m wondering how much stock you all put in lucky numbers. Do you have a lucky number? And if so, why?

As far as lucky, “two” hasn’t exactly paid off yet. I consistently choose 2 or 22 as the Powerball, and so far I haven’t won. But it’s coming! I can feel it!

Feel better! The flu is diffrent this year, starts in with pneumonia, then flu at the end!

Oh yeah that rocks 2 to the max!

Come check out my blog, in 2's.

No, no lucky numbers for me. I love all your two's though. What a cool date for your 50th. Have a great MM. :)

Let's hope the "2" pays off big.

Two will pay off in time... WHo knows? maybe 2 days...weeks... months.

Hey, happy birthday 5 days early! (that's 2 + 2 + 2/2 days, as Jacob Two-Two would say)

Very cool.
Have you seen the Jim Carey movie...23 I think it's called. Your post is similar to the movie plot.

Happy MM.

That's really amazing the n° 2 in your life ! I don't have any special number the only thing I remember was that I had a math examn on 6.6.66 ! but I don't remember the result, lol!

I don't have a lucky number, but I do have numbers that mean a lot to me. They are mostly in the form of dates.

Happy MM!

Linda said...

My birthday is 9-9 so I'm rather partial to that number myself.

I think it's really cool that your 50th birthday will be 2-22-22! Very cool indeed!

Sorry to hear about your flu. Hope you get well soon.
Great post for the theme.

My lucky number is "13".

I´m looking forward to celebrate those two birthdays with you, the upcoming and the 50th... and each birthday in between :)

Happy MM - hope you´re feeling better!

My birthday is July 7, and I've always considered the number 7 to be lucky. Like you, though, nothing really special has come about as a result of those numbers. But then, nothing really bad has happened on their account either. So I guess I'll settle for that.

Ugh, the flu, I am so sorry, but you're back and a bloggin and that's great!

Exactly two am? That must not happen too often. Exactly at the hour. Mine were all born at times like, 4:04 and 10:52.

Great MM Post! Happy (soon-to-be) birthday and I hope you're feeling better soon...

I struggled with this week's MM meme. Come visit if you have time or inclination.

peace, Villager

Come hell or high water, I haven't missed a MM yet either! Sometimes my posts are lame or barely existent, but dammnit! I've always posted!

My post today falls into the "cop-out" category. As to yours, I'm not a number freak, but I must admit that "four" seems" to work for me.

Shelia said...

Glad that you're on the mend. My house has already had two rounds each of that madness, and that's after flu shots!

I'm not so into lucky numbers in and of themselves, but as they apply to you with all of these twos, I think that it could hold some credence.

Take care!

Hope you are feeling better.

Who knew 2 meant so many thing to so many people.

You are right your 50th should be a rocking good time.

maryt/theteach said...

I guess I don't believe in lucky numbers...No numbers I've played in the lottery have EVER won... But keep playing 2. I'm sure you'll be lucky! :)

Not So Anonymous Michelle said...

WOW! That's a LOT of 2's, it's especially neat that your 50th birthday is on 2/2/22! Cool!

As for the flu, hope it's going away, that sucks! Norovirus is going around the campus I work at, I'm trying to avoid that one!
