This should be called "Every Woman's Day" since working happens without needing to be mentioned. Then again, maybe I'm wrong. Maybe there are some women out there that don't work...ah, but they're called "the rich and famous". And, they probably have to "work" at staying that way.

I propose a "Take the Day Off Day" for all females not in school...gotta keep the kids in school and getting their education. So, let's combine the two: "Working Woman's Day" with "Take the Day Off Day" and honor women everywhere. Period.
Ladies, go pamper yourselves. Enjoy the day. Relax. Be catered to. Forget your daily stresses and focus on pleasure. Kudos to all working women...and that means every woman reading this!
Another suggestion: read a romance book to "whisk you away from it all". You know...Fantasy Land. Where you can drool over the hero and forget it's snowing outside, your preschoolers are screaming, your boss is bitching, your clothes are pinching and hinting you either need to lose weight or buy new clothes, or people are asking, "What's for dinner?" as soon as you walk through the door.
"Work" at something different on "Working Woman's Day". Work at pleasing yourself and have a great time!

Oh how I wish I could take the day off, but I have to work! lol
ReplyDeleteIsn't it funny that "Working Woman's Day" is scheduled on a Monday? That means we won't find out about it until we're already at work. By then it's too late. That's just cruel! lol
ReplyDeleteXXOO Kat
I totally agree that we all deserve a 'take a day off day'. I'm glad you thought of it!
ReplyDeleteWork...or play...today (maybe some of both???)
ReplyDeleteThanks for your comments!
I agree, let's take a day off...read a romance, take a walk, have a massage. Bliss;-) It will have to be tomorrow though!
ReplyDeleteYeah, when does laundry and kids take a day off? But it's not the rich and famous who may grant themselves a day off...a few men I know landed a mate who truly ate bonbons and watched soaps during the day. HE came home from work, made dinner, put the kids to bed, cleaned and went to work next day. I do not believe she did the dishes. I don't know what she did but by the looks of her house that was nothing. And his job was in the military enlisted.
ReplyDeleteSoooo ladies, pamper yourselves...if you deserve it.

As good as all this sounds...I get antsy just sitting around and end up "doing" something! But, I did take some time for myself!
ReplyDeleteThanks Paris and Judy for adding your comments!
LOL Who has time to relax. I'm a writer and for those who know what writers do they know writers never have time off unless they have writer's block. lol
