terrible tuesdays.

Tuesdays are terrible, downright awful. I know that sounds like such a negative thing to say, but really, think about it.  Sure you can get a "case of the Mondays" but sometimes it is really nice to know that it is the beginning of a brand new week! And it is family night- in Provo that means that you are required to go play with a bunch of people your age and everything is 1/2 off. Wednesday is hump day, it is always a relief and for me, that is my temple day. Win. Thursday is lazy day.  Everyone knows that it is almost Friday and so they are so much more laid back and if anything goes wrong everyone just says "well at least tomorrow is Friday".  And Fridays...well god bless Fridays. Casual clothes, new movies, end of the week, date night, paydays, they hold so much potential.

So what do Tuesdays have?!  I have been calling them Terrible Tuesdays for quite some time (I do blame Jordan, ever since he pointed this out, it has been true!). But it is time for a change!  This is going to be a fantastic year gosh darn it [insert forced, medicated smile here...jk], I can't afford to have a bad day EVERY week!  So, ways to make Tuesday better, perhaps even terrific (but don't get too outta hand...it's still 4 days til the weekend):

• say an extra long morning prayer- stay awake for the whole thing
• sing "Downtown" with Petula Clark in the shower as LOUD as you can (ok not with Petula...)
• wear extra cute, sexy panties (it's like a special secret, sorry if that is too risque to share, mama)
• eat Barnum animal cookies (not the stale Stauffers kind, the real ones)
• get as much done as you physically can
• take a half hour nap (I normally take comatosis naps...this one is hard but worth it)
• take out the recycling- every little bit helps!
• go to the gym
• stay extra for yoga (breathe correctly, makes a WORLD of difference)
• Namaste.
