Three day weekend coming up. I wish I could say we have something fun planned, but no: we are getting the kitchen cabinets painted on Tuesday, so my husband has to fix the cabinets before then, and I have to move everything out of the cabinets. That's how we'll spend the last weekend of the summer!
When I went to Harding University, we went to class on Labor Day! That was very strange for a girl from Motown...you didn't mess with Labor Day in Detroit. In the car company culture (being from Dearborn, we were a Ford family), the workers held an exalted role. So, I've always wondered why Labor Day was a non-event at Harding. Was it because George Benson looked upon the celebration of "labor" as a Communist plot? Or is Labor Day just not a Southern thang in general?
