- Monday for wealth, Tuesday for health, Wednesday the best day of all, Thursday for losses, Friday for crosses, Saturday the worst day of all;They say that if people start work of a Saturday, that it will never be finished.
Long ago, if people had any work to do, they would never start it until Friday, and any crops that would be sown would surely grow well.
Anyone going into a new house never would go until Friday.- Collector
