Labor Day Weekend means a lot of different things to different people….and may mean nothing to those of you outside the USA. Here’s what it means to me:
1. The last long weekend before the worst month at work. September is pure hell no matter how you look at it or what position you hold in my organization. It’s the end of our fiscal year and we’ve been known to work all hours and spend alot of money in this month. It’s good and it’s bad. So, take the Friday off before Labor Day……you’re going to need that energy.
2. The end of summer…….well, it’s just a symbol that the end is pretty much here. All the kids have gone back to school, so summer’s gone anyway, but now it’s time to close the pool and cover up the grill. Sniff…..sniff…
3. ARE YOU READY FOR SOME FOOTBALL???? Oh my, do we love our football? Yes. And now it starts. This week and weekend is when college football begins and next weekend marks the beginning of the NFL season. Yes, I’ve done my fantasy league draft and have my starters picked out. Yes, I’ve read up on what’s going on with college teams. LET’S GO!!!!!!!!!!
What does Labor Day mean to you?
Happy Bloggin’ Ya’ll!!!
This year – it will be the start of a new job for me. So- more of a beginning than an end. And – the HOLIDAYS are just around the corner. Although a bit hectic – I LOVE family gatherings. They are so much FUN!
Have a happy & safe Labor Day weekend

Wow RoSy, the holidays ARE right around the corner! I hadn’t really thought of that….I gotta go shopping!!
Good luck on your job
It’s the last chance to whoop it up with my family before people go back to school. But it also means that fall, my favorite season, is coming.
Oh, I love the fall too and I hope we get a really good one this year. Most years we only really get a couple weeks of fall and a couple weeks of spring, sometimes not even that, before heading straight into extreme heat or extreme cold, but maybe this year we’ll get a true fall. That would be wonderful!
You have captured what the Labour Day weekend means, even here in Canada. For me it signals the end of summer and get ready for autumn. It is also a very busy time for me with my occupation.. I am a teacher… back to school is like a frenzy. The days are still warm but the evenings are starting to get cooler. Oh well. Another summer ends but another beautiful autumn begins.
Oh you’re a teacher! So yes, this holiday REALLY means something to you
Thank you for educating our children and enjoy your beautiful autumn
You so welcome! I love how you are always so positive!
Thank you! No sense in being negative…there’s too much of that in the world already
Sorry I haven’t been around much lately, but my book, The Bellman Chronicles, will be FREE to download on Sept. 10 – 11! Check it out on my Amazon Kindle page.. You won’t be disappointed. And if you can slip me a review, I’d be forever grateful…
After Labor Day – it’s crazy bussy at work and happy birthday to me
I hear ya Ms. Thaler and Happy Birthday (belated) to you!!!!!!!!
