Rainy Days and Mondays

What a dreary, dull, uninspiring Monday this is. It's rainy and cold outside, the kids are restless, and I have a very messy house and mountains of laundry looming before me. Days like this bring me down, make me wish I could chuck it all aside, grab the people I love, and set out on a don't-look-back kind of journey. I know I can't do that, but it would be a nice day to curl up and read books, color with the kids, or take a nice long nap, but no one but me is interested in any of those activities....which makes them impossible for me. Sigh. I guess I'll go vacuum somewhere. How'd I get myself into this?
