Happy Labor Day! As I tell my 21-year-old daughter: I’m still in labor after all these years.

It’s hard to believe that summer is coming to a close. I am grateful when the temp drops to a chilly 91 instead of 103. But it did go by fast for me; how about you?

All Black Everything Upscale Event 

​Landmark Bar & Kitchen Sun Up to Sun Down Labor Day Party. Did someone say Spiked Sno-Cones? Yes, yes, they did.

Check the FlowerTherapy page for flower arranging + wine imbibing events in Dallas and Fort Worth. I love beautifully done flowers and this seems like an awesome way to destress.

Labor Day Ski Show at Marine Creek Lake in Fort Worth

Sunday Funday Bike Ride and Brunch in Fort Worth. Exercise makes me not hungry but for normal people it probably does it the opposite, huh.

​A clothing sale by Lee Ann Locken of Real Housewives of Dallas. As someone who avoids trends by dressing from the 80s, I find this idea amusing.

Speaking of fashion, Dallas International Fashion Show is dressing it up.

Zip Line Day on Sunday at Heard Museum $12. I thought about doing this, but

​OUT OF TOWN ACTION: West Czech Fest aka Kolache Heaven Fri Sat Sun of course Brave Combo will be there!

So get in front of me with your events, plus you can add it to our calendar here. Let me know if you like a line list of events with just a bit of info, or if you like my longer descriptions. TALK TO ME, PEOPLE.
