Monday, Monday

I like Mondays. There, I said it.

I don't like waking up to a messy house and starting all over with the laundry and all the cleaning, but I feel like I do that on any given day anyway.

I like that I can relax at home with the little ones while I slowly clean and do my computer stuff.

I like that the older two don't have any after school obligations.

I like that the evenings are set aside for me and my family to just be together.

I like that I get to watch The Bachelor after my kids go to bed. Yes, I am that deep.

I like that I have a fresh new start on everything. I always make the excuse "I'll start that on Monday" and when Monday comes, I usually forget. But knowing I have the whole week to get "it" done makes me feel better.

I really don't like Thursdays. They make me crazy. The only redeeming thing about them would be that the next day is Friday, and my favorite shows are on that night. But that's a whole other post.

I love Mondays too...so calm. We always stay up late Sunday night, so the kids always sleep in the morning. But I am not with you on the Thursday thing, it has been my favorite day of the week since I was like 10...weird I know.

PS. I miss that picture of the kids where Owen was so happy with his chicken nugget.

For the most part, I agree. Except on Mondays, I'm hit with the realization that my house is a total pit after the weekend. So I'm typically hit with a cleaning frenzy that leaves me exhausted. Maybe when I actually have kids in school ALL day, I'll jump on the Mondays are Ok bandwagon. I miss that photo too...Owen is hilarious in it! Oh, and if I wasn't so sick, I'd have a Bachelor night. Maybe next week!

I'm 90% with you only because some Monday's I look around and think what exploded in this house!!!
