Saturdays

You know, I would never have thought that I would be able to enjoy Saturdays like I do now.  For the last several years, any and all jobs that I had were shift work consisting of days, evenings, nights, weekends and holidays.  One of the jobs that I had I was working every weekend and holiday.  I always say that that whole TGIF that everyone touts on Fridays, is pointless to say to a shift worker.  With my new position, I have all evenings, weekends and holidays off and to be quite frank, and it was hard to get used to, but now, Saturdays make me happy.

One reason that I love Saturdays is the morning cartoons.  Do I still watch them?  Not really, but I have been known to get caught up in a Scooby Doo episode or two.  How many of us watched Saturday morning cartoons?  I am sure that a lot of you did.  You may or may not admit to it, but if I started humming the theme song to Scooby Doo, I am sure that you'll know the chorus line.  If it wasn't for those meddling kids, I would have had boring Saturday mornings.  When you were a kid, the cartoons were great distractions from the weather outside.  When you are an adult, the cartoons are a great distraction for your kids from the weather outside. So, win-win.

The best thing about Saturday is Sunday.  It is a day of the week where I know that I do not (anymore) have to work the next day.  It is now my day of leisure.  A day to do whatever I want.

:o)  Do what makes you happy!
