Monday the mal content

this is not Monday {see how relaxed and inwardly peaceful she seems?}. This is Lea who owns the following apartment and the web shop, Butik NO, which carries, happy things for your happy life.

If Monday was a person, I wouldn't like her very much. She'd be an officious, stick in the mud that refused to loosen up. She wouldn't be nearly as efficient as she fancied herself to be. Her posture would stiff. So would her clothes - sensible, cheap fabrics in navy and browns {but not in a good way} nude hose and edema swollen ankles. No, I wouldn't like her.

I'd be laughing at someone's office door, as I recanted a funny moment from the weekend, and she'd walk by, all pinched face and disapproving, pausing briefly so that I understood the full extent of her disapproval, before clicking off, pantyhose swishing, little gray cloud trailing.

I'd probably feel a little guilty because I wasn't doing what Monday really expected of me- setting aside the fun, and getting down to work. Monday would have framed platitudes lining her office , 'failure is not an option', 'FOCUS' and 'sweat is the cologne of accomplishment'. I wouldn't like her. Monday probably even wants to get me fired for bringing my joie de vivre into the week. Still bouncing with my weekend buzz, appreciating all that my weekends remind me: slow down and smell the proverbial roses.

Hope your Monday doesn't take the wind out of your weekend sails. If she does, stick with me, we'll look at happy, floral, danish interiors, stand on cool retro chairs... bare foot and definitely laugh about life just a little.

all of these very cool, un-Monday like images are from Indenfor & Udenfor.
