My Magnificent Monday

My mantra has always been "Mondays Suck". I usually fall into depression on Sunday evening dreading Monday and what it signifies, which is "the work week", the "start of the daily grind", "5 days till the weekend". However, I have lately begun to look forward to Mondays. Why? Because it is another glorious day which we have been given. Each day is a gift that should be viewed with gratitude, optimism, and wonder at the world around us. (At least that's how I feel this Monday morning).

Therefore, I am starting "My Magnificent Monday", a list of things in my life that I am grateful for. I figure if I start each Monday this way it can only be the start of a great week. I am blessed with a great life and I intend to have a Magnificent Monday.

I am blessed because:

1) The sun is shining today.

2) I got to spend last evening with my busy teenage daughter.

3) I have a job when so many do not.

4) I have a hot, sexy husband.
