This is Why Monday's are the Best

C'mon give them a chance!

This is Why Monday's are the Best

You probably think I'm crazy, but Monday's are the best!

So, really there is one main reason as to why this is the best day of the week. It's simply because it's a fresh start!

First off, it's all about your attitude. Many people have this preconceived idea that Monday's are awful. If you fit into this group, then you are simply making it a bad day before it even begins.

Monday's are the beginning. Do you want to start a new project? Do you want to start a diet? Do you want to make plans for later in the week? You simply have the chance to make a difference, and Monday is only the start. And even if you don't want to start something new, maybe you didn't finish something from the prior week. Monday is a great day to keep working on the project with a new found energy.

Now, I know this is going to sound completely nerdy, but I'm going to hop on my soap box anyways. When I think of Monday's, I think about how I spent the weekend away from my coworkers. So, maybe I bought a new shirt that I want to show off or maybe I have a great story to share from the weekend. I don't know how to describe it other than I feel fresh. I'm the person who, by Monday, I have all my dishes clean, my laundry is done, and my house is clean. I do this, so on Monday, I feel that much better.

Because of this burst of energy I get on Monday, I am the most productive compared to the other days of the week. Being the organized person I am, I love to plan out my week and figure out how far I can get in my work and plan something fun for the next weekend. It's like I push through Monday to get to the next weekend. And if you don't finish what you need to on Monday, you have the rest of the week to complete it.

I get for some people it's hard to wake up on Monday after you had two days of bliss. Maybe you're a little tired, because you had that much fun during the weekend. This is just an excuse to drink a little extra coffee on Monday morning.

The best advice I can give, is to be positive. Instead of focusing on how miserable you might think Monday's are, look at it from a different perspective. Think about all of the things to look forward to. Be grateful and be happy!

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.

1. It's easy to be fooled by shiny things.

Tamatoa created a liar filled with shiny things simply for the purpose of tricking fish to enter and become his food. He too experiences a lesson in how easy it is to be tricked by shiny things when Moana distracts him by covering herself in glowing algae so Maui can grab his hook.
