The day before….
Labour Day! That’s what today is, and in case you forgot it is a Monday today. Now, today being the day before a holiday, it helps make this work week so much more easy to stomach. Despite the fact that I am on call tonight, it naw go cramp my style. I will simply mek sure that things in my corner of the hospital are copasetic. Keepings fingers, toes and other nameless dangling appendages crossed that it will be a decent night.
So, what is on the agenda for tomorrow? Well, they say Christmas comes but once a year. But, in this household, that is debatable. Why so might you ask? Well, as you might be aware, if you read this site for long enough, one of the things that is a must in dis yard for Christmas is the lovely HAM! Ham becomes a staple here in the Yuletide season. Man open de fridge to get some water and a slice a ham haffi cut!
Well, recently we gave out our deep freezer to have a duco job. In order to have this done, it had to be defrosted and ting. Took five days for the block of ice that had collected in it to thaw. Well, lo and behold, guess what was discovered in the ice but a rock solid ham! 
Now, it is about a twelve pounder and I think it is about 2 years old. So, in order to not have it dry out for any longer, I going bake it rass tomorrow as my Labour Day project. I won’t be out in no yard or on sidewalk sweating in no hot sun using no cutlass or shovel. Ooooh shyte…..I jus passed by the supermarket and picked up a few things and I now realize I forgot to buy the fercking tin of pineapple slices to go along with the ham! 
Oh well, I guess I will have to make anodda stop later as the supermarket will be closed tomorrow. Some peeps going come up, one doing rice and peas, someone else doing a salad and I just may do a tuna pasta for good measure if the spirit moves me. So, it shudda be a arite Labour Day spent with friends. Sorry if you all have to Labour at the office, but it just feels nice to have a day from work in the same week that I going off on leave. Till next time……keep on keeping on.

May 23rd, 2006 at 12:11 am when I used to live in the country people used to come out and help out in the community. not sure about town though
May 23rd, 2006 at 4:38 am Sounds like an expedient, well planned, and tasty Labour Day project. Good luck.
May 23rd, 2006 at 6:05 am Can’t believe you let a ham hide for sooo long.Anyway,finding it and more importantly eating it must have made up for the oversight. I thought labour Day was always May 1.
May 23rd, 2006 at 6:22 am No Kami, it has always been May 23 here. owen, we used to have a number of Labour day projects in this area in times gone by, but I think people less enthusiastic nowadays and just tend to look at it as a day to gest some rest.
May 23rd, 2006 at 6:36 am have fun. I should convince my bos to celebrate labor day today too cause monday was queen victoria day and i enjoy my day off but this morning i aint feel like going to work at all
