Mondays can be rough!

Garfield makes me laugh!! I want to post a few I found today that are very appropriate!

Here's to Monday...

and what seems to be a constant reminder to be healthy and get in shape while hopefully shedding a few inches/pounds! After all, Sunday is always the day to enjoy the special extras, like dessert, right?!


Here I am looking for energy to do homework :)



No comment... if you know me well enough this will make you smile.



This is how I felt this morning, trying to get out of bed.
Somehow the coffee a lil later really helped to brighten the day!



I will have to keep looking I am sure I have seen a whole bunch of other Monday comics that I really loved. But I should probably go do homework, or head to bed so that I can get up in the morning!

photo update... hopefully more to come!

Sisters next time, Tab :)

Through a bus window...

millions of trees.... some naked, some full of green, some budding fresh life

trash on the side of the road

farmhouses and cows

construction and orange trucks

beautiful sky, clouds, and plane tails

fellow travelers

rugged train tracks winding through the hills

toll booths and turnpikes

amazing fog

mile long tunnels

red dirt and red fields

rumble strips

rushing rivers and winding streams

speed limit signs

thick mysterious forests

Each player answers the questions about herself.
At the end of the post, the player then tags 5 people and posts their names, then goes to each blog to leave a comment, saying "you've been tagged, come to my blog to read the details."
