A Case of the Mondays

So at our house Mondays are a pretty...awful thing. Mondays are bad for two reasons, reason #1, Monday is the day after Sunday. Just in case I didnt mention it, and in fairness I may have not, we are members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints aka Mormons, which means among other things that Sunday is a busy day at our house. We attend church for 3 hours each Sunday, add in the 30 minutes it takes to get there each way, and an extra 10 minutes before and after for getting in an out of the building church is a 4 to 4.5 hour process each Sunday. Not a bad thing, just something you plan for, but this sunday... well this sunday was a bit more difficult. Our meeting time changed from 9am-12 to 2:30pm-5:30pm, which complicates things... since Michael isnt the best napper to begin with this new schedule of getting home at 615pm rushing to get dinner and heading to bed didnt sit well. Add to it that no matter when church is, by the end of the day on Sunday he is exhausted, frustrated, and well just a grump overall. Since his routine is screwed up by the end of the days (not to mention that Saturday makes things bad too) by Monday he is frazzled... super grumpy actually.... so it usually takes us until tuesday to get going again. Reason #2 that mondays are bad... Monday is the day that Daddy goes back to work... and let's just say Mikey is devastated. So to put it mildly at our house Mondays are a nightmare.

Boo! 2:30-5:30??? My home ward did that once and it was terrible. Are they remodeling a building or something?
