A friend reminded me of this today and she is spot on!
Today is the last working day of our week! Monday was a bank holiday, so why has it taken so long to get to Friday?
It’s one of the mysteries of life? Surely 4 days is less than 5! So on that basis tomorrow should have arrived sooner!
I have some theories! Is it because we are so relaxed from our long weekend that it takes us longer to get back into work? Is it the extra sleep we had that our bodies want more? Or is it just that we enjoy being off more than we enjoy being at work ?
I wonder if people on shifts get the same feeling ?
Whatever the reason, I am so so glad it is Friday!
This said, I do love it when you have a bank holiday! Obviously it means I get more time off, but for me there is another reason!
Bank holidays mean that people are more likely to tag leave onto the break! That then means one important thing – I get a seat on the train to work! Woo hoo!
It might be a small thing, but believe me, it means a lot! No standing squashed up to the person next to you! No listening in to other people’s conversations, being able to write my blog etc etc.
With Easter being late this year it falls only a week before May Day. Then it’s not long until Whitsun! Ooh how exciting! There is hope that for a few days over the next month I will be able to have a relaxing trip to work!
I’ve probably jinxed it now. There will be cancelled trains etc and I’ll be back to standing. Ah well, it’s like the lottery. You have to have a dream and live in hope!
Sometimes it’s the small pleasures in life that make the biggest difference!
Have a good weekend x
