It's like getting a brand new outfit for the party. It's way better than driving to work a new way. And the anticipation is sweeter than your daily nibble of chocolate. You'll look forward to it all weekend.

Monday. (Or, whatever day begins your week.) A day to yourself. No kids. No work. No obligations. Freedom.

And if you're thinking Friday would be better. It's not. You'll end up treating it just like Saturday and it won't feel as special. But, when Sunday night comes along, after two days off, you will feel rested, fresh and excited at the idea of having one more day.

Have I got you interested? I used every cliche in the book (one more) to try to convince you!

So give it a go. Make those arrangements now. I guarantee you will love it.
