1. Thanks. I am *not* looking forward to this as I've lost significant stuff on every 13th this year.

2. My mother lost her first son on a Friday the 13th ...
happened well before I was born, and she's on pins and needles on these days.

3. According to esoteric thought. . .
Friday is ruled by Venus. The 13 is the number of transformation.

In accordance with this theory the way in which ill fates are mollified on Friday the 13th is to devote one's energy to the creation of or appreciation of things of great beauty.

Otherwise, just make lots of love.

Just a theory but great fun in any case.

6. Now, that sounds like the plan
I'm taking a break from digging daffodil bulbs. They were getting too thick.

More beauty next year.

4. Heh... and my hubby's getting a vasectomy later today.
Good thing we're not superstitious.

I'm one of them...
