Mondays Don’t Have to Suck | A Guide to Weekday Activities
Catherine’s guide to weekdays activities and a more socially rewarding work week
PHOTO: Courtesy of Pinterest. A couple months ago I shared my suggestions on how to craft the perfect weekend, but I am not one to live for the weekends. A couple years into joining the workforce, I came to terms with the fact that living for two days a week was a waste of 5/7 of my 20s (and 30s and 40s).

While Scandal is currently streaming on my account, I’m going to do something I haven’t all year: watch a full-length movie. With a glass of wine and a giant bowl of popcorn in hand, I look forward to revisiting one of my classics.
