Leap Year Marriage Proposals

"There is a tradition, said to go back to Saint Patrick and Brigid of Kildare in 5th century Ireland, but apparently not attested before the 19th century, whereby women may make marriage proposals only in leap years.

"Supposedly (but disputed), in a 1288 law by Queen Margaret of Scotland (then age five and living in Norway), fines were levied if the proposal was refused by the man; compensation ranged from a kiss to £1 to a silk gown, in order to soften the blow. Because men felt that put them at too great a risk, the tradition was in some places tightened to restricting female proposals to 29 February."

If only I had known sooner...If I'm still not married in four years, I might just take advantage of this...

Ok, you can kill me if you want...

I know it's been a long time since I've posted...let me give you a little update....

I have an apartment in town with my sister. Working at Comfort Suites. Did my Junior voice recital at the end of November:

and am preparing for my Senior voice recital in the end of April. Planning on graduating in May. Looking for a job for after this summer, when the apartment lease ends. Have one option, but it's not definite. I haven't even sent in the application, yet. Plan to do that this week...hopefully...Still playing organ at church...and helping with Teen Time.

I'm going to try to keep up with this a little better....we'll see how that goes...
