#mondayblahs

Starting a new week with Nutella shake (not one glass but two) and an audio of quotes by Jane Austen is the best thing ever! I know my throat will be nagging me the rest of the day because starting a cold day with something cold does not add up to a responsible adult. Oh! But Nutella! And frothy milk shake! How can one say no? - - Do you like the new update for IG Stories where you can see the whole Camera roll? I love it! I think it saves a lot of time in case you forget to post something you intended for Stories. Especially in case of videos that you forget to post but can’t be accessed after 24 hrs previously. And sometimes you don’t want to cram up your Stories in a day with unboxing etc. So the new option is a life saver in my eyes. What’s your take on it? - - What are the new updates of Instagram that you love and what do you hate? (NOT including the algorithm. We all have talked so much about it already). . . . #mondayblahs #booknerdlife

07.19.2021 . . Hello Monday . Woke up to the drip drip of dreary rain outside & a major case of the blah blahs . 🤪 . As messy as this Monday morning is & as messy as my tray of discarded, neglected jewelry pictured here is …(needed a visual image of the feels I feel today) I plan to conquer both the day & this tray . Life is a challenge at times, it cannot be instantly fixed, no matter how positive you are, or the prayers you put in or how hard you try & force it to be . It just isn’t the time . Face it & challenge it right back . God is always with you . Embrace . Embrace . Embrace . Soon the rain with be gone & solutions will be found . No feeling is permanent . That’s all I have to say . Blessings & Godspeed, xo, melanie . . . . #moodovermonday #mondaymood #mondayblahs #mondayblahsbegone #pandemia #mondayvibes #mondaymotivation #mondayblues #newday #beginagain #rainydayvibes #lifestyleblogger #chicliving #sunrise #goodmorning #hellonewday #plantlady #growthmindset #grow #bebettereveryday (at Capitol de Beaute) https://www.instagram.com/p/CRguQ1UryBP/?utm_medium=tumblr

....for those suffering from the #MondayBlahs. Typically & intentionally sardonic (from me); but in fact, the effort of mentally "filling in the blanks" here... finding that mysterious quote... can be a creative exercise to get you out of those doldrums. #ToughLove #YouBetterThink #YoullThankMeLater https://www.instagram.com/p/CD_sY5OjgAh/?igshid=1ne05r9npnued

Is it Friday yet? #mondayblahs #thethinker #sisyphus

Do you read short stories? Who are your favourite authors? Do you have any favourite collections? - - Both Sarah Hall and Samantha Hunt are new authors for me and it is the premise of the collections that drew me to them. Slightly dark and maybe a bit magical? (Yet to find that out). I am eager to see what is in store. - - If you enjoy short stories, why? If no, why not? - - I enjoy short stories because they are short (what a cliche answer 😝🤦🏻‍♀️) and perfect to read in between short breaks. I often finish my collections over many many months. PS: Miss Laila is a short novel, not a short story collection. . . #shortstories #mondayblahs
