Labor Day...A Day of Rest



Here are my plans for Labor Day...

1.  Sleep in late - I wrote this post last night and scheduled it to post this morning, so if it's before 8am, I'm probably still in bed.

2.  Watch TV - This is pretty much a given at my house. Even if I'm not paying much attention to it, the TV is usually on.  However, Valentines Day did come in the mail from Netflix the other day. Who doesn't want to watch a movie staring every actor in Hollywood.

3.  Bring over my dressing table - Mom stripped and stained my dressing table this summer and it is finally finished, but I haven't brought it back to the house yet.  I can't wait.  All my stuff has been in boxes on my floor...plus it will make my bedroom look finished since my dresser was done 2 or 3 summers ago.

4.  Laundry - Nuf said...

5.  Bake Cupcakes - I've been waiting to get to try my hand at baking cupcakes and I'm pretty stoked.  I've decided to make mint/chocolate cupcakes.  Chocolate cupcakes with mint butter cream icing and topped with Andie's Mint pieces.  I will have to give most of them away though.  I plan on allowing myself 1 or 2 cupcakes from each batch I make.  The rest of these will go to family with a few taken to work for my lunch buddies.

What are your Labor Day Plans (or...what did you do for Labor Day)?

No LABORing ToDAY

Happy Labor Day! Does anyone else think it is ironic that most people get Labor Day off? Shouldn't we be laboring? I'm just glad it is one holiday that we still get out of school for. Of course, many schools haven't even started yet, but here in the good ol' Ozarks, we are starting week four!

I had a great weekend. My best friend come home from North Carolina. I hadn't been able to see her in since January. I'm glad that she was about to come home over the long weekend because that meant that I could spend both Saturday and Monday with her. It's nice to have someone that you can just hang out with. No entertaining, no having to make big plans. We just do what we normally would do...but together. I miss having that. Stupid new husband taking her away because he works for the Air Force... GRRRR!

Here's hoping you had a great weekend too!
