Friday is the start of the work weekend

What makes me think that Friday is the start of the weekend?  It’s a fallacy.  For me, and I am sure for many of you too, Friday begins the work weekend.  The same thing happens each Friday – My kids act as if they have been running around a track for 5 days straight with no food or water and they have no idea how to do anything other than flop on to the couch and turn on the TV.  I, on the other hand, need to start my two days of cooking, feeding, feeding, feeding, washing dishes and clothes, picking up “stuff” that the kids leave around the house and starting again the next day.  By Sunday, I am exhausted, thankful that everyone is fed and has clean underwear for school the next day and ready to go back to the office.   Lest you think I have no fun on the weekend, I do enjoy the trips to the grocery store (by myself), trips to Target (by myself), going to get gas (by myself) and going for a run.  My mantra:  ilovemykids, ilovemykids, ilovemykids!  🙂

Have a great day and take time for yourself!
