Good morning and Happy Monday everyone! Yes, happy Monday. I return to work today from a week's vacation. Today I was able to sleep later because I have training for the first few days of the week and they had to have me start later. The sleeping in part was wonderful, I did none of that last week. My husband's days are long ones, and I matched my days to his. I prefer my schedule and am happy to be back on it as of today. I do have my second week of vacation time booked for the last day of August carrying through the remainder of that week and leading into the Labour Day long weekend. But today, today is Monday and that means a return to the usual schedule for me. ~Photo is mine

I heard today is a great day to celebrate a birthday! Hopefully, the birthday queen has a fabulous day, wherever she happens to be!

Thank you so much I really do love the card/gift that you kindly sent me. My son sent me a video clip this morning of the girls singing. And I received 2 emails from my 2 aunts.

Coming back from vacation is always hard I'm glad at least you got a later start. I'm chilling in bed with BBC News on , a new PM is a big deal. Have a great day back!!

Nice you got to sleep in before starting work this morning. I woke up at 4 and was awake for awhile, but got back back to sleep for a short time. I still can tell I need more rest though. I'm up now though, and will probably stay up.

@Juliaacv I think it is turning out to be about average.

A week definitely can just fly by really fast. I am glad that you were able to spend some time with your granddaughters and sleep in a little bit this morning.

I don’t regret getting up so early on my week off but it felt good to sleep in today.

Thank you, it was a hard day, the training wasn't easy and there are still 2 more days of it. But the day ended on a very sweet note. We met our son, his wife and the twins at a restaurant to celebrate my birthday, and it was just as sweet as could be. The girls were so excited. Last night when my DIL put them to bed, she told them that when they wake up in the morning it will be my birthday, and the first words out of Harper's mouth this morning, was its Nanny's birthday today! So if I ever want to remember something, I will just tell Harper.

It's funny how a week can fly by so quickly, but the first day back at work always feels so much longer. Hope the training goes well.

Thank you, I have a feeling with it being the first day of this training it will pass quickly. My family and I are all going out for supper tonight, so I will not have to worry about what to cook.

A week is so short, I remember when I was a very young girl and a week seemed to last forever. Perception of time changes through the years.

Yes a week is like the blink of your eye. But it feels good to be back working.

Sometimes it's nice to get back into a regular schedule.
