In fact I worked two jobs on Monday.<br><br>I can honestly say that I know one person who follows those old traditions..and some other rare ones too. One of my grandmothers sisters still does the weirdest stuff...but it's all she knows. So I get a kick out of it. I don't see her too often anymore but when I do I ask her about other weird things like that and she'll go on for hours about how it was "back then"....great stuff.Erik D15http://www.blogger.com/profile/10138275337706911706noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3480619702191195947.post-70249086467083717772008-09-02T22:46:00.000-04:002008-09-02T22:46:00.000-04:00You deserve a special "Happy Labor Day" ...You deserve a special "Happy Labor Day" since you worked TWO jobs on Monday.
