Not to be nosy, but do your numbers keep repeating?

Are you superstitious about the numbers game?

I think I am, though I don’t play the lottery.

Twenty-six keeps popping up in my life.

As either a beginning or an ending.

The other three members in my family of origin?

They were born or died on the 26th.

My mother wins the jackpot.

Born July 26; died January 26.

My father did his part.

He died November 26.

My sister got hers out of the way.

She was born September 26.

I hope she sticks around for a while.

So far, I am the only dissenter–born July 6.

I got nervous when I saw today’s calendar.

My mantra?

Just get through today.
