Happy Sunday everybody!! I used to dread Sundays because my job did not discriminate on Sundays or holidays as far as days off were concerned. Which means that I was guaranteed to be on the schedule Saturday and Sunday. When I worked at that job on Saturdays and Sundays I would always have a feeling sadness. See my family except for me had Monday through Friday jobs and I felt that I missed out on all the family gatherings and all of the fun. Now that I no longer work  Sundays they seem some what bittersweet. Now I use them to see family some, but I mostly spend my Sundays cleaning, washing the dog, or the car or all of the be for mentioned, causing more work than I actually do at my Monday through Friday job. Now I believe that those wonderful Sundays off that I yearned for are not as wonderful as I had imagined them. I do prefer my fulls day work that I have at home  rather than a fulls day work at actual work but it was all an illusion. When I was off during the week I could clean, wash the dog and the car while everyone was at work and it would stay clean at least until 5pm when everyone would stroll through the door. Now as soon as I clean up any mess I have to get the vacuum cleaner out and follow my eight nieces and nephews that are between the ages of six and two which they then believe is a game and begin pulling stuff out or dropping crumbs on the floor as fast as the can, lol. As much as I love my new found Sunday off I often wonder what made me think that having Wednesday of was any different that having Sunday off. Though I do love the fact that I do get spend my Sundays with my family.
