Mondays

Sunday 17 August 2014


"I hate Mondays" seems to fall on my ears a lot. I tried to fight it for a while, tried not to become one of "them," but I came to the steadfast realization that really, it does always seem to rain on a Monday. And not the good kind of rain, the dreary, dull, oppressive sludge.

How do you make a Monday better? Plan ahead. I pull out my notebook and scribble the scramblings of my brain at 10:11 on a Sunday night. Save my best cup of tea as solace for o-so-slow alarm clocks that have no regard for my personal sleep hygiene, and yet still strike an un-charming bell in the morning.

BUT..maybe there is a bright spot. Sure, Monday will never be my chocolate day. But it might still have some good qualities in there somewhere.

"How could he have considered taking Monday off? Monday was the diving board poised over the rest of the week. One walked out on the board, reviewed the situation, planned one's strategy, bounced a few times to get the feel of things, and then made a clean dive. Without Monday, one simply bombed into the water, belly first, and hoped for the best."    ~Jan Karon

  1. Ah, I especially hated Monday's in High School. I really dreaded it. Now I'm better with them, but still...Monday...yuck! Haha :) I still try to look forward to Monday though because it's the beginning of a new day and that's kind of cool. <3
