Monday Morning Blues

It’s a Monday.. that’s all I can say.

My Alarm went off at 5 am. I slept through it. At 6am, I was still asleep, when my second alarm and back up cell phone alarm went off. I was having strange dreams, and I did NOT want to get up.

I stumbled out of bed, and started the shower. I had water, but when I turned it on, I didn’t realize it was set to HOT ONLY. I went to get in and hopped out almost immediately, cursing the fact that yesterday’s shower had hardly any hot water and I’d forgotten to set it back to the “middle” setting.

I got dressed – went out to walked the dog. Took the wrong keys. Went back, and got the keys with the rubbish bin key and tossed the trash in the rubbish bin. Dropped the leash for the dog – he proceeded to go romping around the parking lot. After 2-3 minutes of “chase” he finally let me catch him and get the leash which had been dragging on the ground.

Walk completed, I put him back in the house, leaving my lunch on the table. I went back the 10 steps got it, before walking the rest of the way to work. (10 minutes late).

I got turnover, put lunch in the fridge and went for a coffee. Someone took my mug from the dishwasher, so I couldn’t take the free coffee from the coffee pot.

Went to coffee bar. Got a paper cup of Large Latte. Went to the side counter and proceeded to open packets of sugar – pouring the sugar into the trash and putting the paper into the coffee. Thought “Oy! This doesn’t look right?!?” and fished out the paper before properly sugaring the coffee.

Returned to desk, answered a couple emails. Decided that I needed another coffee. Still can’t find my coffee mug. Bought another paper cup of coffee – only to have the cup leak onto my desk….

All I could say, as I laughed about the entire thing was…

Yep! It’s a Monday. I should have stayed in bed because it’s been a great start to the work week…. No other “surprises” please.
