Monday's fun days!

hmmm.... Mondays - time to atone for the sins of the two day scrabble!

My most amusing part of the weekend is Sunday evening, about 2 min's before you close your eyes and surrender to that long awaited slumber... there is this moment of reckoning you have with yourself. It feels like a list of new years resolutions, only these are the mini more current version of what's hot or not. They are the one's you try hopelessly to cram into those 48 hours of "holiday" we have every week.

You would think most people have had a stressful enough week, why not try to unwind in your 48hrs of respite? But no, instead we accelerate the pace to the point of frenzy! Trying to eek every last drop of fun, stamina and oxygen we can muster from the tiny vacuum sealed 2/7ths of time we have! So that eventually when Sunday night rolls in, you have damn nearly suffocated yourself as well as everyone else you may or may not have come in contact with! Its a fantastically euphoric feeling to make it to those last 2 min's... I'd imagine a bit like surviving a triathlon- hell, maybe even winning it!

So now Monday has become about implementing all of those things you thought of just before you closed you're eyes! That new exercise regime, a stricter diet, less socialising, more "me" time, perhaps adopting a slightly more conservative demeanor, enjoying nature, quality rather than quantity... the list goes on and on, and every weekend it gets longer and more daunting!

Until today, today I came up with a new solution... Its an instant LC remedy and it comes in the fast efficient form of: a run, a swim in the ocean, a great breakfast, a long hot shower a gorgeous dress and a killer pair of heels to kick start my Monday, and send me rocketing through the week at 300kms/ph to Friday! Just so we can start all over again!

(OK naturally the dress and heels thing doesn't apply to everyone, adapt accordingly! - compliments of Princess Mia;)
