mondays

quite the reputation monday has;
the carpenters had a hit song about it,
"rainy days and mondays".

for many it's the start of the work week.
fresh off of a weekend of freedom from
alarm clocks, rush hour, cranky bosses
and job stress.

onward toward the middle of the work
week, affectionately labeled "hump day".

i've been spared the "monday blues",
thanks to the 3 day, 3 off, 3 night, 3 off
schedule we used on the fire dept.

of course there were trade-offs;
working weekends and holidays.
all things considered, i truly enjoyed
the flexibility of the 3 on 3 off.

until i find another part time job,
it's going to be just 7 off!

more time to keep an eye on the recovering sober house crew.
