Labor Day

I sit here on this eve of Labor Day trying to motivate myself to do something more exciting than going to sleep before 10PM. I'm not sure what the appropriate celebration is for those that labor or have labored or whatever the hell this holiday is about. I've spent most of my weekend nursing a one year old with a bad cold, cheering on the four year old at his soccer game, catching up on laundry, and visiting with family. Tomorrow I will spend at least half of the day cleaning the house. Kind of seems more appropriate on Labor Day to not labor at all, but I'm at the point where you need to wear flip flops to take a shower because the bathroom is so gross. I contemplated just burning the house down and starting over. It would definitely be easier, but it wouldn't be quicker. Plus, I'm not sure how to cover up arson. Murder - yes. Arson - no.

So for those that labor and especially for those ladies that are in labor - Happy Labor Day!
