Following on from the star signs, what day of the week were you born? Does it affect your personality?
We all know the old poem
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
And the child that was born on the Sabbath day
Is Bonny and blithe and good and gay
Me, Sunday of course ?

Friday's child. No idea whether I am loving or giving.

My sister was a Wednesday's child, and sadly, it prefigured her life. She wasn't a misery or unhappy child, but her life was a life where things frequently went wrong, she broke her thigh badly when she was two and spent a long time in hospital when children didn't see their parents, and this certainly affected her deeply for the rest of her life, she was expected to do well at A levels, but didn't because of poor health, and her life went on like that. Finally she was fatally injured in a road accident and died when she was 45.

Obviously she had happy times and successes, but everything she achieved was despite the various obstacles that seemed to stop her ever achieving anything the straightforward way, she always had to struggle.

I am a saturday child, I've certainly had to work hard for a living.
have two wednesdays in the family, its true, full of woe. One a granddaughter always full of tantrums ,grown up now......the other wednesday was an ex daughter in law.....a dour personality. I made a list of all family birthday days and still have them in my birthdays book.

Tuesday - and anyone less graceful would be had to find! Or maybe it means Grace in a spiritual way - that would be nice.

Tuesday for me and I’m far from graceful ?

Blossoming Fri 30-Jul-21 10:35:51
