  Speaker 1: Happy Monday one of six seven night of them mean
• 0:03
  Speaker 1: Christie in the morning. You know, when we say happy Monday,
• 0:06
  Speaker 1: we really do, we really mean it.
• 0:07
  Speaker 2: Yes we do, all right, we do, we do, but
• 0:09
  Speaker 2: we wish you a happy Monday.
• 0:11
  Speaker 1: All of us in this room we kind of get
• 0:13
  Speaker 1: the Sunday scaries. We're very lucky that we do love
• 0:16
  Speaker 1: our job and we love everything we do. We start
• 0:19
  Speaker 1: stressing out about Monday and Tuesday and Wednesday and the week.
• 0:22
  Speaker 3: Right it's the it's the everything that's gonna happen next week.
• 0:25
  Speaker 3: Sometimes is like whoo.
• 0:27
  Speaker 1: And I know we've talked about this before, but it's
• 0:29
  Speaker 1: been a while. What time does it hit you on Sunday? Like,
• 0:32
  Speaker 1: oh boy, here comes the week?
• 0:33
  Speaker 2: Pretty much right after I get up. You can't even
• 0:36
  Speaker 2: enjoy the first first cup of coffee.
• 0:38
  Speaker 3: Then I start thinking about things and you know, of
• 0:41
  Speaker 3: course we're not alone. Sixty nine percent of people say
• 0:44
  Speaker 3: they have the Sunday scaries in this in this survey
• 0:48
  Speaker 3: that was taken by a Mirror sleep and they found
• 0:52
  Speaker 3: that they said, back in the day, Sundays used to
• 0:55
  Speaker 3: be more about sleeping in and relaxing.
• 0:59
  Speaker 1: And chilling out and calling people.
• 1:01
  Speaker 3: And calling people on Sunday. They did mean to call
• 1:04
  Speaker 3: my aunt yesterday. I should have done that. But it's
• 1:08
  Speaker 3: changed over time, and we use Sundays to sleep in,
• 1:12
  Speaker 3: which is great, but then falling sleep Sunday night can
• 1:15
  Speaker 3: be very, very hard. We're also using it to get
• 1:17
  Speaker 3: a lot of chores done and prep for the week.
• 1:20
  Speaker 3: So we're doing laundry, checking the calendar, cleaning the kitchen,
• 1:24
  Speaker 3: breakfast prep, things that we need to tackle for Monday morning.
• 1:28
  Speaker 3: All of that sounds familiar, right. I feel like we're
• 1:29
  Speaker 3: all doing that. I was doing that yesterday. So when
• 1:32
  Speaker 3: you're putting all that pressure on yourself for a Sunday,
• 1:35
  Speaker 3: that kind of takes away from the joy of your
• 1:37
  Speaker 3: relaxed day.
• 1:38
  Speaker 1: It almost feels like a workday.
• 1:39
  Speaker 2: It feels like a workday.
• 1:41
  Speaker 1: It does because you were telling me you're working on
• 1:43
  Speaker 1: taxes on a Sunday. Oh my gosh, I can't even
• 1:46
  Speaker 1: that can drive you into a dark hole.
• 1:49
  Speaker 3: And that was the whole day, and I'm not even
• 1:50
  Speaker 3: anywhere near done.
• 1:51
  Speaker 1: Oh I'm with you, so feel better, please.
• 1:54
  Speaker 3: So well, here's what we're supposed to do, Covey. According
• 1:57
  Speaker 3: to the experts. First of all, they said, try to
• 2:00
  Speaker 3: not compare what you're seeing on social media to real life.
• 2:03
  Speaker 1: That's a good point because you'll be working at home
• 2:05
  Speaker 1: on Sunday or doing something, yeah, and you're scrolling in
• 2:08
  Speaker 1: people at brunch yeap or traveling somewhere, and that can
• 2:11
  Speaker 1: bring you down.
• 2:12
  Speaker 3: Or they look like they have these fully organized homes
• 2:14
  Speaker 3: and they're just doing a little prep and then they're oh,
• 2:16
  Speaker 3: then we rest No, that's not real life. Again, people
• 2:20
  Speaker 3: are putting something ideal on social media, so try and
• 2:23
  Speaker 3: avoid that. If you can go for actual downtime. Sunday
• 2:27
  Speaker 3: should still feel like a day off so you don't
• 2:29
  Speaker 3: feel overloaded with tasks. So maybe during the week you
• 2:33
  Speaker 3: try to check off some of that stuff that you
• 2:35
  Speaker 3: don't love, like the laundry, and maybe you can even
• 2:39
  Speaker 3: do some meal prep ahead of time. Possibly, right, keep
• 2:42
  Speaker 3: your to do list very short, forget about three useful things.
• 2:46
  Speaker 3: That's more than enough. Just get like one or two
• 2:48
  Speaker 3: things done. Yeah, and just again, try and do something
• 2:51
  Speaker 3: you enjoy so you can be distracted by joy rather
• 2:55
  Speaker 3: than focusing on the anxiety and Sunday scaries.
• 2:58
  Speaker 1: All right, I'll try it next weekend.
• 3:00
  Speaker 2: I'm not sure we forget well, did you guys? You
• 3:02
  Speaker 2: guys were away a little bit this weekend, right, Yeah.
• 3:04
  Speaker 1: We have a little getaway home in Pennsylvania, so we
• 3:06
  Speaker 1: were there and actually driving home is when it started
• 3:09
  Speaker 1: hitting you at three o'clock and I'm like, oh, when
• 3:12
  Speaker 1: we get home, there's no football. Football seasons over.
• 3:16
  Speaker 2: Obviously football helps you football.
• 3:18
  Speaker 1: You know, we got to get the kids to bath.
• 3:20
  Speaker 1: I got to make sure I can, you know, back
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: to falling asleep again. I'm always worried about that. So yeah,
• 3:25
  Speaker 1: it starts hard. Then.
• 3:27
  Speaker 2: At least we didn't have the time change this weekend.
• 3:29
  Speaker 1: But I feel just as bad. I know something about Mondays.
• 3:33
  Speaker 1: All right, Well, we'll cheer you up sting tickets coming
• 3:36
  Speaker 1: up with our trivia battle. We'll do that at seven
• 3:38
  Speaker 1: twenty five. The weather that will not cheer you up. Unfortunately,
• 3:42
  Speaker 1: It's going to be a very busy weather day, on
• 3:45
  Speaker 1: and off rain and some could get really heavy later
• 3:48
  Speaker 1: with some severe weather in the afternoon high of sixty
• 3:51
  Speaker 1: one
