Good morning, Gather

It's Monday.  My favorite day of the week.  I love to be happy on Monday because not many people are happy on this much maligned day.  Make people miserable and smile a lot today!  Especially if it's raining.  What a fun way to have a Monday.

I have a class to teach.  It's my Dora the Explorer class.  It's where I go to teach Spanish, but have been admonished to teach gently.  Did I mention it's  5 hour college class? Don't stress the students or they may drop.  So, I teach with pictures, games, and bouncing balls.  Okay, I'm blowing my happy Monday rule.

Still smiling. What are you doing today, and how will you make yourself happy?

Well, Good Monday Morning to you, too. I like to wake up in a good mood every day. Monday is a rough day for most but I think most people make it worse on themselves. I try to start every day out on a good note.

I got up at 4 this morning, left at 5, drove round trip about 120 miles to do my collections for drug testing on a company. I made it back home by 8 and now after I get done checking out Gather, I'm going to take a catnap before I go into the office at 1.

Have a fabulous day Carol.

Hey Carol!

I'm working today... a slow hotel work day, will probably be brutally boring. On the positive side I should get a lot of reading done :)

I'm going to make my self happy by making some wings tonight for Monday Night Football !!


Have a great day!

Thanks for the inspiration. I'm off to my sister's today. Not in too good of a mood but her babies will help with that!

Have an awesome week!

Mondays are only fun when Derek Jeter hits a 3run homer off of Curt Schilling the night before to win the game.
I'm just like you Carol,,Thank God It's Monday!!!

I wake up in the morning, have a cup of coffee, I'm happy!!!
Nardy G. Sep 17, 2007, 10:41am EDT
Oh James. No you didn't. I thought we were friends dude.

Happy Monday!! I am off on Mondays, so it is a day of catching up and relaxing.

Nardy,
Not only did James, but here's right back at ya. If the Yankees aren't the best, Derek Jeter is. Love them Yankees. Love you, too, but Red Sox suck!

Yawn...I'm letting the cats out into the kennel run,working in the greenhouse.It is down into the 35-36 degree weather.Movin all my plants into the grhouse.Working on a quilt that my greatgrandmother pieced many years ago.As I touch the material from long ago, I have fond memories of her.

Even when I worked I didn't work Mondays so I always enjoyed them! They are my personal day to re-coup from my weekends, and I glory in having the first day of the week to myself!
Sarah (I want points) Sep 17, 2007, 1:27pm EDT
I'm doing the same thing I do every other day of the week.... Good for you on being happy on mondays!

Swiper NO swiping! Joshua loves Dora. Can he come to class?
*Carol ~Bronx Southern Belle D. Sep 17, 2007, 6:15pm EDT
Joshua is my grandson, and he can come any day.

LOL mondays aren't too big of a deal for me anymore. Love this retirement gig lol .

Dear Carol,

I have never felt so abused in all my young gatherlife. Why must you drive a wedge of evil empire between us, when we had it so good quietly knowing that you were a follower of the dark side?

p.s still think youre awesome though... :)
