Josie and me-and a little knowledge about our week…

Lots of times Josie and I sit and watch TV. We do it on Wednesdays. Wednesday's are T.V. day. I feel bad about it. But I also don't. We have instituted certain activities on different days. While she is in school on Monday and Wednesday and Friday at Christ Baptist Preschool, she comes home at 12:30.

Monday— Clean up day (But according to the Judeo-Christian count, Monday is the second day, the first being Sunday.) Monday is named after the MOON.


Tuesday— Donut day (Named after the Nordic God Tyre)


 

Wednesday—T.V. day (The name comes from the Middle English
Wednes dei, which is from Old English language
Wēdnes dæg, meaning the day of the English god Woden (Wodan) who was a god of the Anglo-Saxons in England until about the 7th century. For the Orthodox, Wednesdays and Fridays throughout the year commemorate the Crucifixion of Christ and the Theotokos (Mother of God), especially as she stood by the foot of the cross. There are hymns in the Octoekhos which reflect this liturgically. These include special Theotokia (hymns to the Mother of God) called Stavrotheotokia ("Cross-Theotokia"). The dismissal at the end of services on Wednesday begins with these words: "May Christ our true God, through the power of the precious and life-giving cross...."

Many Protestant churches also have services or a Bible study on Wednesday. Some U.S. high schools have had a custom of scheduling sporting events on Monday and Thursday for girls' games, Tuesday and Friday for boys' games, and leave Wednesday evenings free partially for this reason.


Thursday—Avery's house day and Ice Cream day.

Friday—Paint day
