Mindless Mondays

Not that I am brilliant any other day of the week, but Mondays? Forget it! You'd think that knowing this at my age, there would be something I could do to combat the stuper I find myself in as a new week begins? Nope!

I am without a doubt, not a morning person. I am sure that my Mindless Monday begins at the shocking sound of that bad black box! As I drag my lifeless body and absent mind around the house getting myself ready and making sure the girls are doing the same, I grunt, moan, sputter and think very unpleasant thoughts about the day ahead of me. I have even tried planning exciting things on Mondays to be sure I had something positive to look forward to. As the day moves along without my full participation, my mood does eventually ease however, once night falls, I am useless once again.

Sunday night insomnia could possibly be to blame for the reason I loathe Mondays. I find myself planning out the entire week from activities to meals to clothing to the impossible! Sheesh...go to sleep and figure it out tomorrow!

I do work Monday to Friday at an elementary school so I might add that this problem is somewhat seasonal and does completely correct itself each July. Finally some reprieve for about 9 Mondays. Ahh...

So, until the final school bell rings on June 26th, here's to the next 17 Mondays I have to get up!
