Bad Luck?

We are thinking about changing the name of our RV/Home. It is now “Ourtime,” to represent our retirement and freedom to do what we want, when we want. When working our other trailer was named “Down Time.”

Since then, of course, the mature dating site has come along named OurTime.

As I have been married for over 40 years, I really don’t want any confusion.

I feel it is bad luck to change the name of a boat but how about an RV?

Any thoughts to make sure we don’t change our luck any worse than it is already?
  • I don't mean to wax religious, but if I fall into that taboo thing, I start praying. Life is too short to fall into superstitious ways, and it is very easy to fall into that, especially when times get bad.
  • I am glad that I do NOT believe in bad or good luck. Things happen to everyone. Some people create their own problems. I also do NOT worry about anything over which I have absolutely no control. Sure makes my life much more enjoyable.
    Too many people worry about things that never happen or have a very small chance of happening. I had an employee that worried about something every day. To me, he wasted a lot of his life worrying about nothing. JMHO

  • NAH. no bad luck. keep the name or change it.
    whatever you want!! enjoy your travels!
  • You're kidding right? Bad luck if you change the name? And if "OurTime" is an online dating service it will be gone very quickly anyway. Keep it if you like it and change it if you don't like it. No "luck" involved IMO.
  • In my opinion, just the fact that you're worried that it might be bad luck to change the name means that it WILL be bad luck. I for one tend to take anything bad that happens after I once break one of my own taboos to be PROOF that the taboo should have been heeded.
