Monday Morning Mood

I really just want to go back to bed. Unfortunately, work has other plans.

I’d call in sick, except I hate calling in sick on Mondays, and besides, I’m not actually sick—just sleepy and tired. I did not sleep well at all last night. It took me forever to fall asleep, and once I finally did, I woke up several times throughout the night. Even ignoring Isabella trying to convince me that breakfast should happen at an unreasonable hour, I still stayed in bed until 5:00 this morning. Honestly, I wish I were still there, warm under the covers and drifting back to sleep.

Instead, I’m sitting here with a cup of coffee, trying to convince myself that being awake is a good idea. Hopefully, the caffeine will eventually do its job and I’ll start feeling human again. Until then, I suppose I’ll just ease into the week the best I can.

Here’s hoping Monday is gentle on all of us.
