I've Hit A Hundred


I've hit a hundred. No not in age, though some days it feels that way:)
In pounds? Past that point:)
Gray hairs? Who counts.
Shoes? No darn it.
Books I've read? Long time ago.
Cats I've fostered? No doubt.
Rejection letters? Lets not go there.

The number I'm specifically talking about is followers.
For those of you who follow my sporadic blogging....thank you. You make my day.

Labor Day



Labor Day is a day that honors all Americans that are part of the workforce. The labor union
celebrated its first workingmen's holiday on Tuesday, September 5, 1882 in New York City. Over the next few years, the idea spread throughout the country. In 1884, it was switched to Monday. In 1887, Labor Day gained state recognition in Oregon.Other states followed suit.By 1894 it became a Federal Holiday It has continued to evolve into what we recognize as Labor Day today.
