Just Another Manic Monday.....

Ok...so the weekend is coming to an end. Monday is only a few hours away and we all get back to the mundane things we do 5 days a week....unless of course you are a stay at home mom, then it never ends. How do I know that you ask? Because I spent most of my time with my children through most of their school years at home...that's how I know. It is a daunting yet awesome task that we take upon ourselves.

Oh well, back to the topic at hand. For those of us who have an empty house (kids grown and on their own) but still have to get up every Monday morning and go back to that place we call our job, I know that I for one, wonders why? Why didn't I pay more attention to saving my money, why didn't I pay more attention to the fact that I really didn't need that pair of shoes with the pocketbook to match. Then I wouldn't be sitting behind a desk 8 hours a day, 5 days a week.

The things we think of after we get older, the shouda's woulda's coulda's....I sigh...why bother looking back. It changes nothing. I must look forward. Forward to the day when I can do exactly what I want to do. The things that will make my life complete, happy, peaceful. I'm not saying that I'm not happy or complete or peaceful now, I'm just saying that I know there could be more. There has to be more. If not, then why do I care. Why does it mean so much to me to look for more in my life.

I will wake in the morning, slowly rising from bed, feeling all the aches and pains of my age...stumble my way to the shower and try to get my head together to deal with that otherwise dreary Monday. All the while thinking to myself, only 4 more days till the weekend.

Well ladies and gents...what about you...

Have a great Monday!
