Belated Happy Labor Day to those of us in the US. Labor Day celebrates the social and economic contributions of the American worker. It usually indicates the end of summer and start of school, but here in Texas, school started two weeks ago. When I was growing up, school started the day after Labor Day, which back then was also the day after the Jerry Lewis Telethon for the Muscular Dystrophy Association .
Does anyone still know what a telethon is? Or who Jerry Lewis is? He was an amazing person!
I was fortunate to work two years on answering phones during the telethon, not at the location where Jerry Lewis was, but a local site they were using for regional phone callers.
Summer isn't over here by a long shot! We'll still be in the 90's or pretty close to it for a while. I'm just hoping we don't have any hurricanes this month! My birthday is in September, and I remember spending my 40th birthday in a crummy hotel in Port Lavaca with my husband, 4 kids, and a dog when Hurricane Rita threatened the Texas Gulf Coast. Fingers crossed - no hurricane!
