To the Chinese today's date is one of luck, but to many of us we hear the Beatles singing “Eight Days a Week” in our mind. Numerological significance is important in many realms of understanding. However, for me today means:

• I no longer will be able to watch WIS-TV and know what is happening in the Midlands.
  
• It is my catch-up day and will finish some of the tasks that have been on my “to-do” list all week.
  
• I plan to have a date with my husband this afternoon and see “Mama Mia”.
  
• Tonight, I will join millions of others in watching the extravaganza from Beijing and try not to be too cynical about it all.
  
• And, I will , just in case there is something to this “lucky eight” thing, I think I will start a challenging knitting project that I have been hesitant to begin.
