Rainy days and Mondays

I'm really hoping it isn't going to be one of "those" days, but it looks like it will be.  I gained a little bit over the weekend.  I'm a little blue because the college kiddos went back to school.  It's raining here in Rural, USA AND it's a Monday!  The dogs are wet and and one of them jumped in my chair (I just found that out!).  I dropped the veggie spray and it's one of those new sprayers so the nozzle cracked and I sprayed veggie spray all over the pan, the stovetop, and myself.  Yep, I've got a blue heart, a wet butt and a sticky chest and belly.  This truly is a day to sing that old Carpenter song.  I could let it "get me down" and take everyone and everything with me, but I'm not gonna.

I had a fantastic time with the college kiddos.  Rat Mom and I went to the Heart concert at the Winstar Casino.  Every time the family drives back from South Texas I want to go in and see the place-- now I have!  The rain will give the plants some much needed nourishment.  The veggie spray didn't cost that much so if I need to replace it, I'll replace it.  My butt will dry, I can change my shirt, so my Monday morning smile will not turn to a frown-- I will not bark at my co-workers and anyone else who happens into my path.  They had nothing to do with my sticky/ messy start of a morning.  I can get back on my diet plan today and relish the good moments and memories I had with my kiddos.

So how's your Monday morning?  I'm hoping you were off to a better start!
