Mondays

Mondays are usually hard. Back to work. Back to the daily grind. Back to "reality." But I prefer to think my "reality" is really home with my family. I tried really hard to have a good attitude this Monday. Knowing it was going to be a hard one: literacy night at school until 8:30, not getting to put Ing to bed, progress reports to complete, p/t conferences to prepare for, another late night at school tomorrow, etc. But, I started the day off in a good mood. Exchanged a couple of emails with Derek early in the day. I was going to make this Monday great. Then, BAM, huge headache. I don't normally get headaches, and this was a beast. It made me sick to my stomach. I felt awful the rest of the day. Monday, you really don't like me. However, I will not let you win. It's 11:03 pm. I almost surrendered and went to bed in a funk (after finishing those reports...) but I refuse to go down that way. These sweet pics of Ingrid Cate were in the back of my mind. And I'm choosing to end my day with these precious images of my little girl.
