First is takes away from the "holiday." I mean I get it isn't Christmas or Thanksgiving, but it's one of the 10 "free" paid holidays a year. It also means relaxing prior to a holiday is out for possibilities on this particular labor day. I've been a labor day widow for years, the boys go hunting, which I rrrrreallly look forward too every year. They get their time, I get my time, it works. Unless you have cancer.
Second, relaxing. Relaxing before a surgery, I just can't seem to make it work. I'm pulling out all of my tricks. Having dinner with friends, seeing a movie, going to a tailgate party (and NOT drinking-sigh) and rearranging my closet. That has to be a first for me, rearranging my closet on a holiday weekend.
Third, everyone I know is having fun this weekend. I am not unreasonable. I want all my friends and family to have fun this weekend, I just don't want to be left standing at the station. IF you're reading this and we're doing something this weekend, don't be offended, I am just feeling sorry for myself right this second and I am very much looking forward to all of my plans.
So, happy labor day weekend everyone, enjoy!!!! And guess what I saw today, a HUGE fight in the grocery parking lot between two women, they were screaming at each other. I chuckled to myself because I wasn't involved and it validated to me that there are just crazy ass people in the parking lots of grocery stores sometimes.....then I got in the car and thought...........dear Lord, please don't let one of those women have cancer.
Poor darling - not really having a holiday on a holiday sucks! Altho I think maybe you would have more fun reorganising your wardrobe than hunting anyway?! I bought a hanging shoe-organiser for my wardrobe the other day and felt very Donita-inspired! I even managed to fill up all 8 slots and have extra shoes unhoused!
