welcome monday!

I know I'm not the norm, but as a rule I love Mondays.
And they're especially wonderful when they're a continuation of the weekend.
So today I say:
WELCOME MONDAY
The next few hours will find me saying good-bye to some of my precious children
and grandchildren ...
(some of the kids I'm saying goodbye to soon)
but there's nothing like being on the road with a bag of nibs
and a bunch of produce bought at sale prices.
Anyone out in blogland love Mondays too?
How about road trips ... what keeps you awake while driving?
PS - when I arrive at home I'll be posting a new giveaway

  1. YES! I love Mondays especially since it's the start of my weekend every week (I'm off Mon & Tue). Music is the only way I stay awake during a road trip =) Drive safe!

  3. What a beautiful family! Have a safe trip back home! I love listening to Enya when I drive...although I am not so sure it would keep me awake!!! Mondays....geez I would be fibbing if I said I loved them...that is back to work day for me and I always struggle with it...but I am always glad that God has given me another day. :)

    HUGS!

  6. i think my driving snack is sour punch bites. NOT the straws. bites. they're infinitely better. :)

    i only like mondays if they're the beginning of a vacation or (like you said) a continuation of the weekend. really...i'm not a huge monday hater.

  8. Hello.
    I love the Monday. I love every day of the week. I'm working on all the days of the week,(3 a 4 days a week) then I'm happy when I 'm free in the week. But for my man and children isn't always happy that I must work in the weekends or evenings, but they understand it.
    I wish you a very good week.
    Greetings Marga

  10. What gorgeous faces! I actually do like Mondays. To me, they mean a chance to start a new week, fresh, with no mistakes in it....yet!

    As for staying awake on road trips: Love road trips! Staying awake is easy. I turn on the Mexican station and sing along REALLY LOUD. Did I mention I don't speak Spanish?

  12. I like mondays when I don't have to work, and road trips when they are with people I love, who can turn a three hour dead stop on the highway into dance party.

  18. I currently hate Monday's but before I had this office job I didn't mind them one bit. I'll soon be back to enjoying Monday's again though! Have fun on the road trip - that's exactly what I did yesterday for 7.5 hours...through ugly Illinois too!

  19. I love that you love Mondays. It is so refreshing to hear that because people usually just complain about them (including me). I am going to try to love them too. Great inspiration!

  21. I don't mind Mondays but it may be because I don't work a normal schedule and I usually don't work on Mondays, hehe.

    Thanks for visiting my blog!
