You Know It's Monday When...
  • You forget which way to  turn your shower head and alternately burn and freeze the crud out of yourself
  • Coffee cannot be made fast enough
  • 27 pound child must be carried to car with bag, coffee, and 20-pound cat darting in front of you to get out
  • Signs for "Slow down, children present" make you snarl (hey, it's almost May)
  • The wrong date is on the agenda board and no one notices until fifth period
  • You are inappropriately angry at the "angel" who pointed out the date was wrong
  • Coffee was all gone by second period and you look wistfully at your mug throughout the afternoon
  • Email does not exist until third period
  • Your lesson bores you
  • Face muscles actually hurt from all the eye rolling
  • Final bell at 3:19 simply causes you to stare into space
  • Until you remember you don't have to be there anymore
  • Drive home from daycare is completely silent
  • Working out is done
  • You're pretty sure if you hear Jillian from the "Biggest Loser" exercise video tell you again that "abs don't come for free", you will march to where ever she is and eat her
  • Dancing with the Stars is actually entertaining
  • It is really good there is no wine in the house
Topics: Mondays, pain, five weeks left in the school year, I hate Jillian from the Biggest Loser (JK...not really)

you need one of those garfield posters with the caption "i hate mondays"  under a picture of him with toothpaste squirted all over his head.

Have you lost your mind? What is wrong with your last bullet? You need an intervention.

Can you have a coffee maker in your classroom? If so, I know what I am getting you as a belated b-day present. I heart my thermal coffee maker. Coffee stays hot literally for 12 hours.

No wine in nthe house! YIKES! I wonder if BevMo is still having their "Buy 1 get one for a nickle" sale?

I ADORE the list. Well done. Bravo indeed. You made me smile (and nary an eye roll on my end.) Thanks for sharing. I can't get enough of the profile pic btw.

Yeah, ten pounds to go, hence the no wine. Only on the weekends. :( It certainly does not make for a happy Mommy.

But that coffee maker sounds AWESOME!
