Goodbye to Monday Morning Blues

What Every Monday Should Look Like!

Most Mondays carry the weight of responsibility on their shoulders.  It's the day of looking at the calendar and scheduling the workload.

This morning for two hours I broke free.  

One of many wooden bridges
on Arabia Mountain Trail.

In a rare move, I dropped my son at carpool then zipped out to a nearby bike trail for a ride.  It was 20 miles of sunlight through the trees, cool air, and flowers around every turn.  There were so many squirrels and birds frolicking, I felt like Snow White in the forest-- only faster.

Decisions, Decisions . . . Let's take them all :-)

Spooky and I raced along, my heart racing too, as we took curves faster than ever before. Early weekday mornings gave me more privacy on the trail.  I could zoom at wild speeds without fear of collision with inattentive walkers.  I could even stop to take pictures of Spooky and me.

After this escape, I found myself able to come back to my day's workload in peace.  Protein smoothie in hand, I began the calendar's To-Do List with a smile on my lips.

More Mondays should begin this way!
