All week long most people who work look forward to the weekend (unless of course you work on the weekend too). Friday cannot come around soon enough. Sadly the excitement from the weekend is short lived. Before you know it, it’s Monday again.
I think we should make Monday a weekend day and have three day weekends. That works for me. LOL!
Why do we dread Monday’s so much? Is it because we know that we have a whole week of work (or school) ahead of us? Or is it because Monday means the weekend and all the fun that comes with them is over.
Here is an interesting little tid bit – It was recently it was discovered, through research from Spong Social Tracker, that New Yorkers dread Mondays more than any other U.S. city, with Los Angeles, Chicago, Miami and Houston following close behind.
Interesting… What do you think about these findings?
Monday will always come around. There is no way to avoid it. So what can we do to make Monday’s a wee bit better? Thermos has an idea.
Genuine Thermos Brand is leading the charge to banish the Monday blues with a new initiative called Saving Mondays. The campaign allows anyone to submit a reason why their Mondays are the worst for a chance to win a survival kit to get through the week.
Each kit will be stocked with Genuine Thermos Brand coffee products, a bag of high-end coffee beans, an Energy Guide with tips to stay productive during the week and a customized infographic.
I love this idea! Seriously… there is not enough coffee in the world to make Monday’s better, but I’d be willing to try. LOL!
Check out the infographic the Thermos brand made for their Saving Mondays initiative. I work part time in the morning. I usually have coffee before I leave home but lately I have found that I need to stop and pick up more coffee to take to work with me. I keep meaning to bring it from home. It’s so much cheaper that way and I don’t have to waste time waiting on line. Needless to say it’s very busy weekday mornings where they sell coffee.
My husband doesn’t drink coffee, but he love hot cocoa and loves to bring it to work with him too. He needs a Genuine Thermos travel mug too.
So how can YOU stay energized all week long? The Genuine Thermos Brand has some great tips for you.
These are great tips! I’m guilty of not stretching (especially taking time away from the computer). I also don’t drink as much water while at work like I do at home.
I totally agree with doing something fun during the week, even if it’s just 10-15 minutes daily. I enjoy long walks with the dog. Or I watch a television show or movie that makes me laugh. Even visiting the local animal shelter and engaging with the animals makes me smile. I call it “fuzz therapy.” LOL!
The Thermos Brand was kind enough to send me one of their travel mugs and some coffee, which I am taking to work with me today because it’s Monday. Actually I’ve been taking it every day since I received it. Thank you Thermos Brand!

I really like those retro looking Thermoses (is that the plural of Thermos?)
