Just another Manic Monday

Ever wonder why if things are going to go haywire, it always seems it will happen on a Monday? I'm starting to believe that Mondays are cursed work days! It seems that no matter who I talk to on a Monday, things are not going as planned for them or myself.
Here is an example of my crappy, manic Monday:
I have a new design in mind for a Cell Phone Sleeve. I get all of the things I'm going to need out and set them all up on my dining room table. I lay down my newspaper to work on, trace my pattern, cut my leather and am now at the stage where I need to stain it. I open the bottle, set it at the corner of the newspaper, pour onto my sponge and start staining. NOW, here lies where my big problem is about to start. While staining, sometimes you have to water your sponge a little bit and go back over what you've stained to even the color out. I at this point, need to do this. I go to lift my hand which is resting on the newspaper and it sticks a little, lifting the paper and tipping THE ENTIRE bottle of Stain! 3/4 of the bottle spills out, all over my dining room table and coating some of the newspaper as well. This is why I hate Mondays!
Now, I am not much of a drinker, but earlier when talking to my Team members on Etsy, I had joked about spiking my coffee. Looking back, I now wish I had. Things may have been a little less stressful and maybe even funny. But I didn't and they weren't!
