Wonderful Wednesday!

Don't you just love mid-week day?

Commonly referenced by many as "hump day" well, Wednesday happens to be my favorite day of the week. I decided this when I was working for a Temp-Agency in the late 90s. It was because at days end, I knew that I had gotten over the "hump" within my work week.

One more day to get through until the weekend (can't forget payday on Friday) and 2-days within the week that I had accomplished something!

Being the "to do" thinker that I am, anything done makes me so happy. Often, I place too many "to do's" on my list (when I make one). I wake up daily thinking about all that I have "to do." On average, 6/10 things get done throughout my day that I'm satisfied with. What isn't may rollover to the following day... or not.

Let's just say that if I have something that NEEDS to get done -it DOES!

I look forward to Wednesdays because I wake up on Sundays feeling a sense of pressure that I must prepare for the week ahead. On Mondays, I begin my day with irrational expectations of myself for the upcoming week. By Tuesday, I'm stressed about what I didn't accomplish on Monday and I get real close to convincing myself that my week isn't going well.

Somehow, on Wednesday morning I realize that it's just the middle of the week and that I've been tripping on myself unnecessarily. I'm able to reflect on how my week began and analyze how it's progressing.

Yes! :)

In 2003, my big brother was killed on my favorite day of the week. It took some time, but Wednesdays are once again very significant in my life and a day that I'm able to balance with a smile.
