Monday again. A friend of mine love Mondays. Is he nuts? He gave me some pointers on how to enjoy Mondays more. He told me to start the week with meditation or exercise. But I can't take the Hendricks bottle to work with me to keep pouring. He agreed. Plan enjoyable activities. Well, I try. Me and my man would stay in bed and have sex...but work. He saw my point. Embrace self-care. Hell, I do that all week. How about not over scheduling your day. The only thing to get scheduled on Mondays is lots of coffee. He said how about preparing for Monday on Fridays. WHAT? Hell no, it's Friday, I don't want to think about Monday when I haven't even left the building for the weekend yet! How about starting Monday traditions, he says. Well that goes back to suggestion 2. The point is not getting out of bed, duh. Ok, well why not adjust your mindset? There isn't anything to adjust, I HATE Mondays. He told me to go fuck myself, which again takes us right back to point 2...sex.
Ahhhhh, visuals....
Here's to another week!
I found the key to happy Mondays, it took me 65 years.
ReplyDeleteEven in retirement, Mondays can be a drag at times.
ReplyDeleteAin't that the truth!
DeleteThere is no escaping Mondays.... Hell, even retired I don't seem to be able to escape them.
ReplyDeleteA lovely mood board, as usual.
ReplyDeleteI love the ways you answered your friend. Although I love my job, just as much I think you do yours, there's just no way I can pimp myself into being jolly about going back to work after a two days break.
Telling myself that I'm useful (of course I am, I'm me!), that my colleagues are nice to work with (and surely me to work with too), etc will never compare to waking up on a Monday morning realizing it's a day off. And I'm certain that my early retirement, one year from now, will prove me true :-)
