Monday morning blues?

[NoMercy]

Do you get these, or are they really non-existent? I was raring to go all last week, and suddenly, this morning, try as I might I cannot summon up the enthusiasm for anything. I cannot even be bothered to cook later, and I'm always willing to cook. Maybe I just need to go back to bed for a couple of hours eh?

Are you raring to go this morning?

[pericat]

No - I have taken back to bed for a while - crampy stomach, headachy - so blaaaaaaaa to this particular Mon morning

I have never subscribed to - or particularly understood this peculiarly British habit of seeing work as some kind of five-day purgatory that has to be snured in order to enjoy two days of bliss.

I see my work as something I do and enjoy - and always have - and weekends as something similar - to enjoy. That's not because I have a fabulous job - it's an attitude of mind. Why make work an endurance, which means that Monday is the worst day - the first of five days of hell, and Friday great - the weekend cometh.

i simply don't work that way - work is to be enjoyed when possible, tolerated when not, so Monday and Friday are the same for me, I neither dread one or pine for the other, it's a way of thinking that people pick up in the workplace, and it's not necessary to be this way at all.

Everyone has periods in life when things are clugish - like today for you - but that doesn't mean you build it into your lifestyle - how pointless and drudge-filled a life is that?

All days have a 'y' in them - treat them all the same - you'll be much better for it.

Morning Peri, andy and Vibra. Sorry about the delay - I was in the shower.

Wassup Peri hun?

Vibra - tad early for that. I'm going out for sushi this arvo, so may have a wee dram or two. lol

andy - I don't work 9-5 mon til fri either, but it's just that mon feeling, if you know what I mean.

[andy-hughes]

I know what you mean - I just don't allow myself to get into that 'British' attitude to work - it sucks!

[NoMercy]

I know what you mean, andy !

Well today is my first day back in the office for over three weeks so I am finding it difficult getting back into the routine this morning. But I won't complain I am leaving at 2pm LOL
