Monday gets a bad rap. It is the day back to work after the weekend. If you don't like you job so well, then Monday is, well, Monday.
Monday starts the work week. All those issues you left Friday are still there Monday along with some new ones to start the week.
'Rainy days and Mondays always get me down.' “Monday morning, you sure look fine.” 'Manic Monday' 'Blue Monday' 'I Don't Like Mondays' All quotes or songs about Monday. Most have some complaint or reason Monday is just not a fun day. Then there are those Monday songs that get the week started...right.
This coming Monday marks the unofficial start of summer. It is a holiday that kicks off summer vacations and lake activity. Barbeque cook outs and fun with family and friends mark this Monday as a good Monday.
This year Monday will be the busiest travel day the country has seen in years. Air travel is at its peak and the roads will be covered in caravans to their favorite vacation spot.
Though it is the beginning of summer and vacations, this Monday is a Monday set aside to remember those who sacrificed their all in order that we may enjoy the freedom to go wherever we like to rest and relax with family and freinds. It is Memorial Day.
I usually celebrate Memorial Day by watching a good war movie, my favorite being 'The Longest Day.' It is not my favorite time to travel or go to the lake, as it is most crowded that weekend. I do like to cook out and try some new recipes.
Now that this Monday is part of a long weekend, does that make Tuesday Monday? Monday's stuff is still pending and Tuesday's is now upon us. Now, it a short week. Except for those taking the rest of the week off also.
We all eventually come back to work. And Monday will eventually come again and provide us with the reality of life before us and those around us. The best thing we can do is to learn to love our jobs. If you can't do that, it could be time to find one you can enjoy!
Monday, Labor Day, is the unofficial end of the summer vacations. Not sure that Labor Day is the most honored of holidays, although I wasn't around in 1882 when it all started to celebrate workers joining a union. Grover Cleveland helped establish Labor Day.
