Feel free to send some of your rain my way !
I'd thought of this recently, but even though I have an excellent memory I can't remember this (holding holidays on Mondays) that far back.
Holidays That Fall on Mondays
The Uniform Monday Holiday Act of 1968 changed several holidays to ensure they would always be observed on Mondays so that federal employees could have more three-day weekends. The Act, signed into law on June 28, 1968, moved Washington’s Birthday Memorial Day, and Columbus Day to fixed Mondays each year.
Labor Day is in good company; other holidays that always fall on Mondays include:

- Martin Luther King, Jr. Day
- George Washington’s Birthday (or “President’s Day”)
- Memorial Day
- Columbus Day "
Yup...I still have a resentment towards Labor Day because of that very reasonWill occur on Monday, September 5th this year (always the first Monday in September). Just another excuse to goof off.It was not one of my favorite holidays when I was a kid. It meant school was starting soon.

This one's better:I read somewhere a part of Labor Day is in honor of improving working conditions
So
I'm laboring under the kitchen sink today
To improve my lady's working conditions
I'll be expecting some sorta medal
Maybe settle for something involving this
