Tuesday's Child ...

 

Odd - today is a Tuesday … and thus all those many years ago … a child who is full of grace was born …!?!?!?

Monday's Child lyrics - as published 
in St Nicholas Magazine (1873)

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 a living.
But the child that is born on Sabbath day,
Is bonny and blithe, good and gay.

**

'Twas on a Tuesday morning

The gas man came again …

the gas men never stop …

they'll be around for a while - 

... on, on and on ...!!


Daffodils and Narcissi



I just hope 2026 gets my health sorted out … or at least eases – everyday it's a nuisance.




I note that Damyanti (Damyantiwrites.com) is still a week ahead of me … I just hope she won't give up her blog …



I give up … I can't count – but think I'm going into my 18th year of blogging – a bit of a shock to me … but my blogging mojo has returned …


Champers all round - around here!!



Busting out the champers ... 
Thanks everyone for being here – I really enjoy the interaction with you all … here's to more ...

I always thought the advertising for champagne in long slim glasses exaggerated its connection to celebrations. Now in old age I love it. So I am raising a glass to good health, peace and our interaction for ages to come :)
