What a difference
a day makes
changing a year's worth
if writing eleven
into trying to
remember twelve

Yep. Usually takes me at least three months into the new year to do it naturally, without having to think about it.

Here's hoping the new year isn't burdened down with the same old grudges from the previous one... and hoping yours is a very happy one.

Giggles, Lori.  You are NOT going to believe how I struggled to understand this one at first!  SOMEHOW I didn't think of the year two thousand and ELEVEN and the year two thousand and TWELVE, but somehow I got stuck on the word "into" and thought of the fact that there are 12 months in a year and I thought you were trying to divide 11 into 12 and couldn't understand why!  I must have been having a mega-senile moment!  However, wowee!  I have got it now!

Happy New Year.
