Leap year Super proposal by a woman

Leap year is here and it is that time of the year when a woman according to old legends is allowed (now that sounds silly nowadays) to propose to a man..Years a go I´m sure this seemed like a big deal but in these modern times, women are more apt to propose to man, or are they???? Talking with a girlfriend last night, she said she was going to go for it, she was ready to take the big step and seeing that her boyfriend was not, she was willing to give him the push…She is planning on sending him flowers to his place of work with a romantic love note, expressing her desire to become his wife!!

I can´t wait to hear how it all goes..What do you think? Should a woman take that afirmative step, and should she have to wait for a Leap year to do it??

The Super Wedding date 8/8/2008

weddingdate080808.jpg

A numerology believer myself, I think August 8, 2008 would be a spectacular day to get married . Not only is the date full of eights when you see it written but if you add 8 +8+2+0+0+8= 26 2+6=8. The number 8 in astrology represents power and luck. Although this date falls on a Friday, I think it could still be very popular next year, especially for many Chinese couples.

I remember trying to figure out what date would be the perfect for my own wedding, my husband thought it was crazy that I was putting so much time into investigating the perfect combination of numbers that would help make our marriage a strong and happy one full of love and vitality. So far, so good, after 11 years married, we are still very much in love and would love to renew our vows in the near future.

So, what do you think? Would you get married on this date?

Ok, I know this is pretty silly, but I know how anxious I was before my wedding day, and all I could do was look at the calendar and start to count the days.. Well for about 20 pounds you can have your very own wedding countdown clock, so you can keep at your desk at work, in your night table, or just carry it around with you.. An alarm will sound when the day has arrived..
