#mondaze
When I was working at a firm (pick one) I would get the Sunday scaries as though Monday was bringing imminent death. What 20-something year old can't empathize with this sentiment? A mixture of too much fun, not enough sleep, and dreading the boss equals a cocktail of 2 parts snarl emoji, one part mad red face emoji, and a garnish of wide eyed gritting teeth emoji. You know you are of generation Y when you write THAT confidently knowing your readers will understand. SMH.
While working for myself, I have been gradually learning how to stay motivated and keep on keepin on. Mondays are usually the day I take to sleep in a bit, regroup, and attempt to set standards for the rest of the week. Don't hold me to that, but I'm taking it one Monday at a time.
When I say this, I don't mean to preach - not my style. The point of this is that I think it's healthy to approach the week with the mentality of easing in to it rather than dreading it. Much easier said than done, but food for thought.
I'm going to veer off topic a tad. Winter is encroaching on our 60 degree December weekend. It's inevitable. Post gift giving, I need to escape to Mexico bi weekly. Not want. NEED.
I don't remember where I saw this article, but I promptly sent it to my mother who proudly reminds me of my Norwegian descent. I often dread winter like I do Mondays, but this article presents a positive outlook on how to embrace the next several months and I'm into it.
An excerpt regarding complaining about the cold, "This is easy enough to change; simply refuse to participate in the Misery Olympics." So true.

On that note, ease up Monday - I can't handle your auto formatting nonsense so I'm going to do the below...
Since this is meant to be a design blog AND speaking of setting the tone for the week...This is great.
In conclusion: chin up! It's almost Christmas break! If you don't celebrate the holiday that has us anticipating an overweight man in a red velour jumpsuit (I want it to say JUICY on his butt) breaking into your home via the chimney - at least you get time off from work - AMIRIGHT!?!
