I didn't. It was just another day off for me.

@JGoldman10,
You did do something for the holiday.

You started a thread like you do for every holiday.

We had Whitsun off yesterday.

@JGoldman10,
You really, really need to look up Memorial Day. It's not a holiday. it's a day of remembrance of the US war dead.

@Mame,
A good therapist is on that list. He cannot be that clueless by accident.

Day off? From what? You’ve told us you’re not employed.

Furthermore, Memorial Day is a solemn day whose original name was
Remembrance Day. It commemorated (by Britain) in World War I those who lost their lives. It was Ssoon adopted by the USA.

@Ragman,
Remembrance Sunday is still that over here. It's the Sunday closest to Armistice.

The kids are on holiday the week, it's Whitsuntide, our Spring Break, it's much too chilly before now.

It's supposed to be when Christ ascended to Heaven.
