Thursday…

but bringing back memories.  I was born on a Wednesday.  For a second or two I couldn’t remember what day of the week I was born on.  A Google search revealed that I was born on a Wednesday.  And now I know what is wrong with me.  I am filled with ‘woe.’
Monday's child is fair of face,
Tuesday's child is full of grace,
Wednesday's child is full of woe,
Thursday's child has far to go,
Friday's child is loving and giving,
Saturday's child works hard for its living,
But a child that's born on the Sabbath day
Is bonny and blythe, and good and(happy).


Wednesday - the fourth day of the week, Woden (Odin), 
chief god of
Norse mythology, who was often called the All Father. 
 
"Wednesday's
child is full of woe." Odin's responsibilities were such 
that he was
never attributed with any cheerful disposition.
 
Since I was child # 6 in what turned out to be 8 children, 
I am thinking it was probably my mom that was full of woe.   
Oh, the things we think of when we don’t want to do any 
housework.
 
I have been to Kroger to stock up on veggies and TV dinners 
and now I really do need to cut this short.
Have a peaceful day.  Stay safe and be happy!!
