T G I F

The week begins, wind at my back By week's end, my front it attacks Each day, I give it my best Jump on each task with admirable zest And yet, by Friday afternoon The Sabbath cannot come too soon Day of rest, day of prayer Refresh the spirit, hang in there

Gershon, you just described many a working week, including mine before I became self employed at which point ‘the sabbath’ became a fantasy. It would have taken me about 20 lines to illustrate the same point. Thank Gershon It’s Friday. Terry
