The Sunday Blues

JupiterKid

I find that I often get a touch of the "Sunday blues" because tomorrow is Monday and it's back to work, back to the working week. Conversely, I also get the "Friday feeling" when the weekend begins.

Any other AHers get the Sunday blues? And if you do, what do you do to counter it?

I used to, but now I love my job and don't mind in the slightest going there each day.

I'd be an early riser too so the getting up part doesn't bother me at all at all.

I used to hate that dread each Sunday, not a nice feeling

Back in the day you'd watch Glenroe.

Touch of the sunday blues. Warm your hand first. Then its a touch of the sunday lukewarm.

Sir Osis of Liver.

Turn on Antiques Roadshow followed by Songs of Praise.

Then Glenroe.

And ER at half nine to remind that you were well past bedtime....

I always get the Sunday blues. Thankfully I intoxicate myself enough that I don't give a hoot

Do you remember the closing music on Glenroe. I would've been around 6 at the time, but when the closing music started and it dawned on me that Monday was around the corner, I was seriously suicidal, no joke.

Great day for exercise,followed by a browse around town&meeting friends,yes a win win all around.Exercise is key,particularly when the sun is shinning, for me-it truly was a double whammy!!

I try to see Sunday changing to Monday as being one day closer to the coming weekend. Usually I try to focus on any thing nice I've got going on during the week no matter how small it is.

Oh no.

The "I haven't done my homework" feeling

Mister Vain

I don't mind Mondays as they seem to go rather quickly for some reason. Tuesdays always drag.

Sunday morning is blissful (provided you're not a kid whose parents force you to get up and go to mass)
Sunday day is alright.
Sunday night is balls.

I'm unemployed so I don't have to worry about the Sunday blues.

Lucky me.

No work Mondays woop! But my boyfriend does and he is usually in the depths! He's off tomorrow though so, ye know, fcukies and sh!t throughout the day \o/

Mr_Muffin

I have the Sunday blues every day of the week.

If only God had made the world on Sunday and rested for the other six days of the week!

Thats why I am better than god. I can go all week and not have to rest on Sunday

Sunday has "me time" - so I am mostly ok with it. Its "my day". Since having kids a big chunk of it is not "my day" any more but a lot of it still is.

The theme music for Dallas and Falcon Crest were the same. They still make me shudder

Spanish Eyes

Well folks, since I took an early retirement package last year, every day is Saturday.

Yay!

But when I worked (for umpteen feckin years) Sunday night was the pits.

Hated it, hated Mondays, but never minded the rest of the week.

Now what will I do tomorrow, after a lie on, poached eggs on toast, and a listen to the oul radiooooo

I did my bit. so there.

It can be depressing, indeed.

To keep me going, I just think of my trip to South America for 3 weeks in December. Little things like that ease the pain a bit.

Well, I woke up Sunday morning
With no way to hold my head that didn't hurt
And the beer I had for breakfast wasn't bad
So I had one more for dessert

Then I fumbled in my closet through my clothes
And found my cleanest dirty shirt
Then I washed my face and combed my hair
Stumbled down the stairs to meet the day
.....

On a Sunday morning sidewalk
Oh, I'm wishing, Lord, that I was stoned
'Cause there's something in a Sunday
That'll make a body feel alone

And there ain't nothin' short of dyin'
Thats half as lonesome as the sound
Of a sleepin' city sidewalk
And Sunday mornin' comin' down

I have the mother of all hangovers

Narcotics were involved.

Have an awful fear.

Too feary to sleep
