Case of the Mondays..... Remixed

So no photos of my food today but I wanted to relay a message. I know some of you 6 AM'ers sometimes catch the me with the "bad case of the Monday's," and I will be the first to admit that Mondays are usually a tough day. And I, for one, apologize if I have ever not been the coach I should have been! But today was surprisingly different. Today was a great day! From morning classes, to my own workout, and even now typing this blog! Great day. Thank God!

So that being said, I had a few people who had said some of those tawdry Monday comments, and being such a good day for me, it almost offended me. Not literally, but something registered in my mind.

I had a short IM conversation that had the whole "Monday" thing going on. I simply replied, " The feeling of the "Monday's" is just a matter of circumstance, don't think of it that way. It's another day to live!"

If you think of it that way, Monday's and any day that you are breathing and surrounded by people you love, is a GREAT DAY!!

I said this once today. It's Monday, the 1st of November. The beginning of a week. The beginning of a month. How are you going to live and what are you going to accomplish??.... Chew on that.

So to end this diatribe, I vow to try and bring a new meaning to Mondays. I want to enjoy Mondays, because for most of us, it is the beginning of our week (circumstance of the "American dream.") And I hold all of you who I see on Mondays, to hold me accountable!
