Just the Facts, Ma'am

December 5, 1974: Day Of The Week - For those of you keeping track

December 5, 1974 is the 339^th day of the year 1974 in the Gregorian calendar. 
There are 26 days remaining until the end of this year. The day of the week is Thursday.         And, of course, A gets to deal with all kinds of exciting numbers such as this in her work-a-day world - can we say she EXCELs!!!

"Thursday's child has far to go" means this child will go far in the sense of success in a chosen profession.       If you haven't noticed, A certainly has gone far - and it ain't over yet!!!

Thursday's Child is a 1943 British, black-and-white, comedy, drama, directed by Rodney Ackland and starring Ronald Shiner as Joe, Stewart Granger and Wilfrid Lawson.          Why not have fun some afternoon after football season and before concert season and watch this blast from the past with A - Thursday's Child on YouTube

If you are trying to learn Spanish then this day of the week in Spanish is "jueves".       Well, of course, A did try to learn Spanish - and succeeded - but she hasn't had much chance to use it - though you might hear an "ay carumba" occasionally if you listen closely!!
 
A person born on this day will be 40 years old today. If that same person saved a penny every day starting at age 3, then by now that person has accumulated $135.13 today.         And, indeed, A is - 40 years old today.  And, even if it didn't come from saving a penny every day starting at age 3, I know there is $135.13 somewhere, just waiting for a trip, or buying a present for someone she loves, or just plain having a good time!!!
