LABOR DAY HOLIDAY?
August 31, 2003
Sounds like an oxymoron doesn’t it. But alas, it’s simple. It’s time to take that last extended weekend holiday- from our labors.
The Labor Day weekend is the sirens call for us to get back to the basics. The kids are back in school and the weather in Houston will begin to slowly smile upon us again. It also begins that long stretch of time between holidays. Thanksgiving is a long ways off.
The stock market junkies should be back in time to assess what 9-11 meant and means. What shall our economic fate be? Congress comes back for more bickering. Bush heads back to the White House that he coveted so much. Football returns to Houston and baseball will really get to have another World Series.
Hopefully in the midst of it all, we’ll take a few moments out of the weekend to look at where we are in relationship to where we wanted to be when this year began. The world has it’s own way of sorting things out and determining just how our destinies will work themselves out.
Holiday? I hope so. I plan on it. However, it’s back to our labors come Tuesday as we march ever forward to conquer and complete those goals that looked so sensible and logical back in January.
