It's Monday ~ Have a Good Week

 

The Weather Changes

It rained Saturday morning but the sun came out by the afternoon.

I went out for a short errand and found it a bit on the cool side.

The weather is changing for awhile.  We've had such lovely, sunny and reasonably warm weather for much of this month. We've had partly cloudy skies early in the week turning to rain yesterday for the rest of the week. It should be good for the gardens. I hope it doesn't rain too much because I'd like to do some walking.

I snapped this photo because of the flock of birds above. They're a bit hard to see.

Enjoy the rest of your week.
 

A New Beginning

Hello friends and fellows bloggers,

Happy Monday to you.

It's almost like every Monday we have the chance to start our lives all over again.

Do you ever feel that way?  

I remember when I was working. I really didn't look forward to Mondays. I always wanted the weekend to last at least a day longer because so much of my weekend was filled with catching up to housework, grocery shopping, church and friends and family. I never had time to really rest.

Now that I'm retired, Mondays still signal the start of a new week and a new list of things that need doing.  But Mondays are all my own, not my employer's and for that I'm eternally grateful. 

I've always been slow to get myself moving in the morning. I'm the same way with the days of the week.  I'm 'warmed up' by Tuesday, lol.  But these days I choose to view Mondays more positively.  I use the day to take inventory and transition into all my weekly appointments and more.  These days I still structure my time and try to accomplish and enjoy as much as I can each and every week.

I wish you all a wonderful Monday and a blessed week ahead.
