Monday’s are not for the weak
Monday may just be another day in the week, but they are not for the faint/weak of heart. Monday always brings with it the challenges of yet another week. Monday’s are my least favorite day. They are a day of wishing I were elsewhere, of wishing I were doing something else and full of promise for the beginning of Tuesday.
Tuesdays are a better day. By then, I’ve weathered the storm that is Monday and can look forward to Wednesday. Why would I look forward to Wednesday? Because it’s closer to Friday.
By Thursday, I feel that Friday will never come. But then on Wednesday night, I lay my weary head on my pillow and next thing I know, Thursday is here and only one more day!
Friday is the LONGEST day of the week. I watch the clock wondering when 5:30 will get here so that my hubby gets home and I can go escape into my bedroom for an hour of peace.
I crave peace the way that I used to crave chocolate. I’d give up all of my chocolate if I could just find one hour of peace on Mondays.
Each day is a better day than the last because I realize that it could always be worse.
I AM fortunate and love that I’m home with my kids. I am grateful that I have my healthy, happy, rambunctious boys. I am weary at 4:59 on Friday but I wouldn’t trade it for anything in the world.
Come on Monday…. pass me by! Bring on the dawn of a new and better day.
I dread Mondays!!! Weekends are the best because my Hubby is home too. So it means relaxing time and help with entertaining the kiddos. But, the Peace that you are talking about is exactly what I have been thinking about too. I used to have an inner peacefulness, but its so hard to find that place now!

Hi Nancy! It’s funny how differently Monday’s can be perceived. I was always happy about Mondays cuz hubs went to work, I stayed home. He was worse than the kids to deal with in those days, and no help to me at ALL. Now I’m in my empty nest, I still love Mondays! And we get along great – don’t get me wrong – I just love the solitude more than anything!!!!
