It Was a Manic Monday , Yesterday !

I love Mondays because they are challenging . It’s the start of the office week , so some works have piled up over the weekend .
But somehow I always manage to sneak in here , despite it being busy .
Such was not true yesterday , because at the start of the day , we had our emergency meeting which took a long time . After which , I have to type the minutes of the meeting and the memos that my boss wants to be disseminated within the day .
Added to that , I have to audit reports and deposit slips and the like , that has deadlines for each day , they come .
Whew ! At the end of the day about 30 minutes before dismissal , all I did was sit and sniff my white flower , because my head ached .
I was able to peep in here for a few minutes , while I was already resting at home . I saw the comment of @soffssu asking why I wasn’t here the past days . How sweet of her .
The picture depicts the very sunny day here today . Good day everyone !

Indeed it was so gorgeous as i climb the second floor , i have to take this picture .
Actually , when the work becomes monotonous , myLot is my breather , as well as going out to the seadeck view to gaze at Mayon and the sea even for a minute or two .

@epiffanie Well , if yoou and your husband plans to retire here , hen why not . But if not , it is indeed impractical . You can just stay at your parents house whenever you are on a vacation here .

@SIMPLYD You are so lucky to have that view everyday .. I wanted to buy a property there in Legazpi, but my sons told me I'm just wasting my money because none of them would want to go back there often like I do..

That's a beautiful snap! The beautiful lady,draped in a wisp of white fluffy clouds, looks really enchanting in the background. (I am sorry but I think I just got obsessed with that volcano!)
I think you are right to feel perk up (even though most people suffer from Monday-blues) owing to the excellent weather you have there.

@The_Bong_Woman I guess all of us had a busy Monday , as it always is specially to those who works full time .
By the way , are you working full time too ?
My Tuesday wasn't as busy as Monday . I feel lethargic though .

@SIMPLYD As I am typing my response to your question, I can see Monday, all worn out and exhausted, wearily picking up her skirt and dragging her feet towards the final hour of her existence. After a mere forty minutes, a new day will come, clad in a fresh skirt and frills and shall walk alongside me. As for the departing one- she was cheerful and lazy all day long. What about yours?

@SIMPLYD nice that you always have that white flower. I also keep it in my bag's pocket, just in case I need it.

I like your positive attitude and much more your self motivation here. I have a few members in my department which I really need to sit down with at the beginning of the week to get them to pick up the attitude and in turn the pace.
After that I will go with the "A" team to pick myself up so as you can see my work place can be quite a battlefield here. But, I suppose that's what you would call it as challenge.

Believe it or not, i always prepare for Mondays. It seems i am so excited to know what lies ahead and how challenging it will be. At the end of the day when i reflect on how i was able to do them all, makes me feel proud of myself. I love the adrenaline rush actually .

Yes, and i always expect that on a Monday. The thought that it will be a busy da excites me . I take t always as a challenge.
I always pray fervently specially on a Monday , for God to give me the wisdom, strength and calmness to do my job well. And that i think it is what really helps me to go through it smoohly .
