It's Monday!

Monday is my favorite day! I know...you
think I'm crazy. :) But if you had my five
men all weekend, you'd be happy to send
them out the door on Monday morning, too!
With kisses and wishes for a good day, of course!
And thank you all so much for your kind
Mother's Day wishes to me. Your
encouragement means so much!

  1. I like Mondays too, after the weekend, it is my time to get the house back in order and clear my head after the weekend busyness.

    Happy Monday to you!

  12. "Currently snacking on grapes."

    I'm reading your sidebar... Sounds yummy. I wish I could be so organized but I'm afraid I don't have it in me. (Thanks for the postcard.)

  15. I can imagine how nice a quiet Monday morning would be:) I'm always moving a little slow on Monday mornings myself. I have to ease into it with a couple of cups of coffee!

  16. I get it...I love Mondays when they are a day of unwinding or when I have accomplished all my tasks for the weekend...it's a fun fresh start!

    Other times (like today) they are exhausting :)

  19. Mondays are a fresh start... most of the time I like them but sometimes I'm a little slow moving.

  20. I love the photo of you with the little ones...where does time go? I like Mondays too, but now that
    I work with my husband, the days are pretty much the same. :-) I sometimes miss my "me" time! Small world about Wheaton College, I remember hearing about the show The Day of Discovery!

  21. I'm a Saturday Girl! Because my Monday is you probably your Saturday and your Monday is my Saturday. Maybe my Sunday is like your Sunday and your Tuesday isn't like my Tuesday. Then there is Wednesday which is totally like every Wedneday. Unless you are my husband who's Wednesday is like your Monday and like my Saturday.

  22. That is a beautiful oxalis. I lost my red one but my green one is doing well. Yes, I sensed that it was good for me to go back to work on Monday. Now that I am retired, it good for me to go outside.

  24. I feel ya on this one Betsy! Oh we do love our men but oh it is so lovely to hear nothing but the tick of a clock, the tweet of a bird & no head-banging music in the house. A nice little sanity break is needed by the best of mums!
    I hope you enjoyed your Monday!!!

  25. I can appreciate that! My husband must feel the same way. He has three human females and two canine females to escape!

  26. Katherine ~ oh yes, you ARE a kindred spirit, aren't you! :)

  29. I didn't get by to wish you a happy Mother's Day, so Happy Belated Mother's Day! You're a blessing to those boys. It's summer vacation soon for you, isn't it? Then you'll be looking forward to the start of school again I guess. :)

  30. Well, I like Thursday evenings--tomorrow! Whoohee. :)

    Mondays make total sense for you--a chance to recharge the batteries and such.

  31. Oh yeah! I love Mondays too. I love having the kids home but when they're in school is all the break I get. Sometimes I feel a guilty but hubby tells me my job is from 3pm to 8:00 am with two 24 hr. shifts on weekends. He does what he can but his job pretty much wipes him out. Yeah, I love Mondays.
    Happy Belated Mother's Day!
