December 7, 2010- Uneventful Tuesday with the Garfield Mondays...

     When the beginning of the week rolls around (which is Tuesday for our island), I often think of Garfield and his Monday blues, especially after a good weekend that I don’t want to see end. Garfield was my favorite comic book growing up, and in fact, I still have all the “treasuries” I collected, and they are enjoyed now by my oldest, proving Garfield the Cat is timeless. Point being, Garfield hates Mondays and tries to stay in bed rather than get up because something bad always seems to happen to him on Monday.
     The good thing about my “Monday” is that I don’t actually dread going to work. I enjoy it, even on the tough days.  I’m doing what I am supposed to be doing at this juncture in my life, and I have no doubts or regrets about the path my life has taken. In fact, that path, as twisted and convoluted as it’s been at times, has made it possible for me to be who I am and follow my passions in life.  I didn’t always feel this way, but God has matured me greatly through the trials and tribulations of my short time on Earth, and I’m sure there’s still a long refining process to complete, but I am content with where I am and who I am at the moment.  That sure is a good feeling, even on an island “Monday.” Unfortunately for my blog readers, an uneventful Monday makes for an uneventful read. Not much to say today. I worked; I played with my kids; I ate, and now I am ready for bed. I suppose some days are just like that, and that’s okay. It’s nice to have a day without feeling I am part of a never ending soap opera. It’s nice to feel normal again...
