    It is an old saying that Saturday is an unlucky day for beginning work and Friday is considered lucky.
    Monday and all the other days of the week are considered for building or changing houses except Saturday.
    It is and old saying that when March was out the old cow kicked up her heels and said they did not skin me this year and then March borrowed three days of April to skin the old cow and these ae called the borrowing days.
