9 REASONS WHY I LOVE MONDAYS

Hi all, I hope you had a fantastic weekend!! Mine was very much laid back and about the most exciting thing that happened was a new walking trail while waiting for the next baseball game to start. I love finding new places to walk or run and this was a neat mile trail around the park
Here it is. LOL


I will admit I was not always a self proclaimed "Monday lover!" In my head I would profess Monday's Suck! I could hit that snooze 4 times with the best of them and complain "I don't wanna go!"

However, I decided to take a look at it from another angle. Sure, Mondays can be many different things. Words I’ve heard used recently include horrible, stressful and sleepy… Ouch. I’m sure you get the idea.
 Yet Monday is so much more than doom and gloom. Maybe this day is not one of your favorites but never forget that everyday you wake up is an amazing gift and it's up to you to make it count!!!

I came up with 9 reasons to LOVE (well, at least like) Monday's and I think you'll enjoy some of them too!!!


1. Monday means a new start!
  Last week might have been hectic or boring, draining or entirely disappointing. But that’s all in the past. Monday brings with it a new opportunity to refocus and set goals for life as it moves forward. This day is a fresh start, and as new start is a positive event...always!!

 2. It’s a good time to . . . 
 A little Monday trivia: Monday is the best time to shop onlineYou can expect lower prices on most sites early in the week. It’s also when a majority of people read blogs. Monday is the safest day to get surgery (Okay?), and it’s the best day to look for a job.

3. Talk about your fun!
 9 times outta 10, someone will ask you about your weekend. You probably watched a good movie, TV show and/or read an interesting book. Maybe you tried a great, new restaurant. Friends and colleagues might relate and genuinely enjoy hearing about what you did for fun.

 4. MYday!!!
  Mon means MY in French. Therefore Monday=My Day, make it an amazing one!!


5. Other People's fun!
 Monday is the day we get to hear all the news, gossip and shenanigans from the weekend.

 6. Back on track!!!!
 So you had 3 slices of pizza Friday night, junk food Saturday, ice cream on Sunday, Monday is the perfect day to be back in routine and back on track with your diet. Meals at the same time and healthy options because you really want to do good this week just in case you want dessert and hot dogs the weekend.

 7. Two Guaranteed Holiday's
 Monday is the only day guaranteed twice a year for holidays (Memorial and Labor Day's) That means 3 days weekends!! I know I sure am looking forward to the one we have coming up and I bet you guys are too!!

  8. Resolutions?
 Monday's are like mini New Years......set MINI resolutions......they're so much easier to stick to. 

 9.  Closer to the fun days!!
 We are one day closer to Friday. Monday is the perfect time to stat planning for the weekend and have something to look forward to! 4 more days people, only 4 more days!! Whoohoo








Even if you still despise em', that's ok. However from my heart to yours, I hope you find something to smile about today and think to yourself, maybe Monday is not so bad after alll!
