The Monday After Vacation is VERY Monday

I had big plans for today. I was gonna get to work early & do all the stuff that happened while I was gone (which was only two business days for heaven's sake). But I didn't want to get up because my body was used to sleeping as long as it wanted to. And so I got to work NOT early (but not late - 8:26 for those keeping score). And I worked pretty steadily up until 5:00. And then I was going to come home & clean the refrigerator and straighten up the house some & read blogs & paint my toenails a more sedate color than green. It's after 9:30 & this is what I've accomplished:

I don't think I like this color either - it's TOO conservative. Just call me Goldilocks.

And instead of doing this:

Yes, there are 118 unread blogs in my reader - I'll get to them eventually!

I'm probably going to do this until Dr. M gets home:

Yes, this is a Webkins game. 

If you'd like to check out something with a little more pep, you can read Dr. M's latest post here - much more better.

  1. Stop with the games, please! A crossword or two, okay. But the rest of that stuff is bad . . obsessive . . mind-melting!

  2. 118 unread blogs? Wow! I only read about 15-20 blogs regularly. That's about all I can handle!

    I liked your pea-green toes!

  5. Alternating the green with light purple every other toe would offer you either option, depending on your mood. Nailed it!

  7. Mondays after a vacation are like Mondays on steroids. I always dread the emails the most...it's like having to eat an elephant.

  8. I think you should consider a sassy shade of blue for your toes. It's my go-to color in the summer.

    I will be off work for nearly a month in August. On average I get 50 emails a day. I'm kind of dreading the return, but not enough to check in daily to stay on top of the email monster living in my in box.

  10. Nice color! Play away -- don't tell my family but the real reason I wanted an iPhone is so I can take my games with me. Since I spend so much time in the car waiting for my kids to finish one thing or another, it's a great diversion!

  11. It usually takes me at least three days to fully adjust back into the routine, after vacation.

    Hmmmm, I think you should go for some fancy painted nails. Like fuschia with little white or yellow daisies in the middle.
