It could be... I find it amusing that the "Seventh Day Adventists" always hammer at the fact that they worship and rest on the 7th day, as the Lord commanded.

I have asked them to show me where in the bible it mentions names of months or days. Spoiler alert: It does not. It mentions day, night, seasons, years... nowhere in there does it mention January thru December, nor does it ever mention Sunday thru Saturday.

MAN created the calendar. So how do we know which day of the week was actually the first day or the seventh day? 🤔

It's an arbitrary acknowledgement to creator.

It's further complicated by the fact the the Bible, the word of God, is a collection of stories handed down over time, recorded, translated and re-translated all by the hand of man. Regardless of their journey, the parables of the Bible continue to shine through.

Based on what I've read and researched long ago, Sunday is the first day of the week. Which would make Saturday the last day, and the Sabbath. That's what the 7th Day Adventists, Jews and Muslims think as well. I tend to agree with them.

So I go with Saturday as last day, and my day of rest. But yeah, in the end, who knows.

Saturday and Sunday are the two strongest days of the week. The other 5 are weekdays.

If you really want to mow half as often, you can spray the grass about once a month with plant growth regulator. Cuts the number of mowings in half basically.

Talked Gavin (10) into doing a car wash in our driveway today for 2ish hours. Made $55. And already has 6 cars lined up for next weekend from our community Facebook page. The neighbor kid got excited and wants to help out and earn some money as well. I'll sit outside and supervise with a cigar like I did today.

I always appreciate when kids work for their money. Had a couple of kids in our neighborhood going door to door mowing lawns so they could have themselves a pizza party. I didn’t even need my lawn mowed, but you bet they got my 10 bucks

Welcome back to Monday folks.
Woke up to 65* and low humidity outside, my kind of weather. Heading to 82 today. Finally looks like the trend is cooling a bit. Got to work and the seaport looks a little slow today. Should be a relaxing day here.

That is what I thought but my desk calendar says Sunday is the 1st day of the week. I defer to Ram on this one.

Let's be honest. Mondays suck too much to spend 17th of our lives on.

Mornings are almost as bad.

Monday? Why... it's just another day. 😁

I've always been a morning person, too. Hell I've usually got half the morning walk done before the sun is anywhere to be seen. Unless it's winter... then I wait for the sun, cuz it's cold without it.
