Just another Marvelous Monday....

Today is Monday. The first day of the workweek. Usually, people think that Monday is an awful day. There is no light at the end of the tunnel on Monday. It's just the beginning of a loooong week, and all you want to do is crawl back in the bed and sleep the day away. Today is one of those kind of Mondays. The weather in Charleston this morning doesn't help at all either. It's rainy....the temperature outside is in the 60's....it's just a good lazy day......
But we're going to change that. We want today to be marvelous. Instead of complaining about how we don't want to do the things we have to do today, we should do those things with a joyful heart. Hey, you were able to wake up this morning, right? Life is amazing! Put your day into a new perspective. Instead of getting annoyed with certain tasks today (we are all guilty of this), why don't you complete that task as efficiently as you can, and have a happy heart? I'm sure after reading all this so far, you now have "Whistle While You Work" in your head. :-)
Let's take a different approach. You just got finished with the weekend, right? Well, what did you learn? We asked our friends on facebook any life lessons they learned over the weekend, and here are some responses:
"I'm not a mistake!!!!!!!"
