I read a book (cheap sci-phi paperback). Had a bar-b-que in the back yard with a neighbor family. Got fat(ter).

I did about 10 hours of school work. However, it was on the back deck in about 80 degrees, in the shade, kicked back in the chair, with my shirt off, so it wasn't exactly work. Just catching up on some reading.

I worked all weekend, but was off yesterday. Monday is my normal day off. Business as usual for me.

I had a 4 day weekend from school since I dont have class Tuesdays (gives me a chance to do homework), but I wasnt able to enjoy it since I was fighting with the o2 sensor on my car for most of that.

Although on Sunday night I went to a friends house and watched a tape of the F1 race, that was fun.

What do you do for NWA? I was an engineer for Delta Air Lines here in Atlanta until June.

I put in about 5 hours... got payed for 8- I'm not complaining. It's easy to get burnout working 7 days a week, though.

Sure is Snoopy, worked from 10-6 then went home and raked 3/4 of a 25 gallon waste bin full of pinecones and needles off my lawn.

However by 8:30 I was kicking it with a very cold beer on the back deck with my new free Alexander Keiths mug and reheating really good leftover pizza.
So that was my Labour Day.

Oh oh and to start the next day I got to take my vehicle in for an Oxygen sensor replacement, I had tried myself but the wrenches/sockets alone were insufficient, I needed a torch.

That morning it snowed as well as the week before, so Winter is coming down the pipes for my Southern friends.

It snows on Labor Day up there? Christ, I'd kill myself.

It melts quickly though. However at our altitude we have had years with snow every month.

So now you know why Canadians drink so much beer, have fatty foods as their favs and are Internet junkies as well as big energy users.

And believe it or not we DO use dogsleds where I live.

Was off Sat-thru-Monday. Friday night, had a BBQ, Saturday went to David's Bridal to try on dresses,did some hours of homework, Saturday night, partied, Sunday- BBQ again, Monday-spent a few hours on homework and hung around with friends.

Canuck... I'm glad I don't live in Canada.

Too dang cold for me, I'd probably be an icicle the first week I spend there
