People say the days go slow, but the years go fast. Anyone with children can attest to this. Most of you know that my husband watches our triplet 2 year old grandchildren. This week he tried the first day at our house without pack-n-plays for nap.
It was a long day.
In a short week.
I can’t tell you how many people talked to me this week about a strange phenomenon. It was a short week. Many people had Monday off for Labor Day. In our district, students had Monday and Tuesday off. Short week.
But it felt so long.
Over and over people kept telling me how long the week felt. I reflected on why that might be.
I think some people have to pack 5 days of work into 4 days. That’s a challenge.
I think some people start the week with a mindset that it’ll go quickly. And that mindset gets in their way.
And, I think it’s just a strange phenomenon.
I guess what I’m saying is, “Enjoy your regular week.” It will probably be Friday you know it.
I’ll leave the blog about enjoying your Mondays for another time.
Be That Person
