Monday, Monday - not good for me.


I long ago gave up trying to be perfect. Homemaking Goddess I was not, and after a number of major, and minor, personal catastrophes and life lessons, I finally got my work ethics in order.

Good. Sorted. Work does not consume my every waking moment, I have a healthy social life and
my, umm, little writing hobbies fulfil my creative side.

Why then, am I still on a treadmill? No matter how hard I try, the week is still a series of 'shoulds', 'musts' and 'have to's', and I seem to spend the weekend getting ready for the week ahead.

Someone once suggested making a list of all the things you achieve in a week, but this only served to horrify me even more. I am a machine!
Oh shit, look at the time, rant over, off to werk, werk, werk....

By the way Wordcarving sort of says it all.

A human poet once said:

You know I work all day,
To get you money to buy you things,
And it's worth it just to hear you say,
You're gonna give me everything

If that doesn't help, you could try wiggling your nose like Samantha to get your chores done.
