Today - when filling out the request form for Peyton's birth certificate - I made the mistake I make every new year and usually continue to make until March:
January 2, 2008(dangit!)
How long does it take you to get your year straight?
i wrote a cheque 10 minutes after 12 - and wrote 2009! i was SOOO proud of myself !:) Happy New Year beautiful - i am so excited to see your family grow & learn & be blessed this new year.
Here's what I found during the years of working in the accounting department at the church and counting the offering--people generally do well the first few weeks of the new year. After the newness wears off, people revert back to their old ways though. I've changed the year on numerous checks. It's much easier than sending the check back (since banks don't usually like to cash checks that are a year old!).

I get it right, right away (don't worry, this not a bragging thing), but come February or March, I start slipping back to last year's date :)
I usually get it right right away too. So eager for the "old" year to pass and the "new" one to come. But that's just me being discontent. :)

I write the date so infrequently that I have to think every time all year! Even our offerings at church are direct deposit.
You mean it's not 2005 anymore?
I just got my birth announcements from an online company and they put 2007 on them so they are REALLY behind haha!
I still do that! And it's what? almost February?? LOL!
