Labor Day is Here!

So here it is Labor Day. All of the stores are featuring Halloween. There are decorations and a gazillion varieties of candies. Some folks are never too happy to see these items appear so early -- as in the summer months. On the other hand there is another way some folks look at the arrival of the Labor Day point of the year. It goes something like this -- starting after Labor Day we look forward to the Christmas time of the year. In spite of all of the holidays that come between Labor Day and Christmas -- Christmas is the next point in the year.
After Christmas is wrapped up and put away we look forward to spring and summer vacation. This long winter provides time to plan and look forward to spring and summer which in most minds ends with Labor Day and the beginning of the school year in earnest. Summer is the time when we can suspend the regimen of school schedules and kick back and enjoy long days and time spent together as a family.
Is this really the way it goes???
