🌻 Monday Moments | Common Sense & Calm Energy

Some Mondays come in smooth, others… well, they test your patience and your sense of humor. 😅

The morning started with a little delivery confusion — the kind that reminds you how important it is to verify before you sign ✍🏼. It’s such a simple concept, but sometimes common sense takes the scenic route.

Then came the mail run — a set of magazines that felt like I’d just carried a full set of encyclopedias down a long hallway. Let’s just say I didn’t eat my Wheaties this morning 😱 and by the end of it, I was daydreaming about a leopard-print wagon to make my life easier!

Thankfully, a few friendly faces brought the energy back up. Some people take a little while to warm up in the mornings, and that’s okay — I’ve learned not to take it personally. By the afternoon, a simple smile and hello can completely shift the tone. Patience really does pay off.

Of course, no day is complete without a quick dash to Starbucks. I waddled over for a tall oat milk chai and a cheese danish — not technically on lunch, but definitely working through it. ☕🥐

And just when I thought things were calming down, a little moment reminded me once again: common sense isn’t always common. But rather than stress about it, I choose to laugh, breathe, and keep my peace.

I like to think I was born with a bit of common sense — my parents might not have always agreed 😂 — but becoming a mom at 20 taught me fast how to think on my feet, adapt, and trust my instincts. That skill shows up everywhere in life, from home to work and beyond.

So here’s to a Monday filled with lessons, laughter, and a reminder that grace and good sense never go out of style.
