I have been working for over half my life and feel I deserve a day for me to go escape by myself with a mini road trip while shutting down ALL electronics

I have shared custody of my son. When his Dad has him, I work through the weekend. When I have him, I take the time off and we enjoy each other's company at home or we do something nice elsewhere. We do the fancy stuff over the summer when we have a whole week instead of just a weekend.

Sang some labor songs at a jam Sunday -- Joe Hill, Union Maid -- but since we retired it's not like holidays mean special days off.

We all have to perform Labor to get through this Life. No one "Labor Day" is any different from another day of labor.

If I were not retired, if I had a bunch of friends or family who are also off work and like to barbeque, I would celebrate. It's to celebrate the working crowd...and I'm not there anymore. One day is the same to me as the next.

I'm off work and it's definitely a nice holiday but I don't do anything special to observe it.
