New Years Day Superstitions?

So- anyone else superstitious about New Years?  Or know of any rather?

My mom won't allow us to do laundry on New Years Day, because the superstition is for every load of laundry you do, you're washing away a member of your family.

I know there are more of them out there, I just don't know/remember what they are =)

Re: New Years Day Superstitions?

  • Really?  How have I never heard that about your mom?  That's crazy!

    I don't know of any New Years superstitions.

  • P.S.  I don't mean crazy like she's insane.  ;-)
  • LOL ya- Grandma Alexander is SUPER like into New Years Day superstitions, always has a big New Years Day dinner full of the foods your suppose to eat, and she shared that with my mom maybe 10 years ago, and since then mom has imposed a "no laundry on New Years Day" sanction.

  • Really?  I've never heard that before but I'm defnitely going to use it as a reason not to do any laundry today.  Any superstitions that could maybe get me out of doing the dishes, unpacking, taking out the trash etc?
