Case of the Mondays

Although I am happy to have had a long weekend I am suffering from a case of the Mondays. And yes, I am aware that today is Tuesday. But the thing about this particular Tuesday is that it has taken place of the dreaded Monday. I know, I could look on the bright side that it IS only a 4-day week or that I just enjoyed a long weekend but No, I must dwell on the day that is Monday. Mondays never seem to go right. There's always many things that go wrong and make me want to crawl back under my comfy covers until I am ready to wake up. Today for instance, we thought the garbage collection was moved back a day due to the holiday. But no, at 6am (and if you know me well, you know I wake up much later than that) the garbage truck was roaring down the street. Thank goodness for husbands--otherwise I would have been the one that had to run down the stairs in my PJs to take the garbage out. However, nonetheless my beauty rest was disturbed. Then, I FORGOT MY COFFEE on the kitchen counter. Biggest obstacle thus far because lets face it, Monday mornings require coffee. And let me indulge you on the joy that is my morning coffee. My lovely husband actually imports our beans (orders online) from the plains of Sub-Saharan Africa. He then grinds them through the burr and brews the beans until they are perfectly infused in my mug. Then, to top it off he then makes my coffee just the way I like it: 1 splenda and a dash of milk, kisses me goodbye and hands me my mug on the way to the train. Well, given the garbage debacle mentioned above, the kiss goodbye was thrown off course and the coffee handoff was never made.
So, I think that to change my mood I need to focus on the normals of a Tuesday. Well, by now I have usually gotten into the hum of the work week: emails are checked, projects underway. --Missed that one. Redbox's new releases come out--That's a plus. Light workout at the gym before spin class tomorrow--Another plus. Almost to Wednesday which is half way until weekend--awesome!
