15 images to get you out of those Monday blues

Almost all of us suffer from a little Monday lag. Whether you're still recovering from a big weekend or just aren't in the weekday mindset yet, Monday mornings can be tough. We're all working as hard as we can to be our True Self, but sometimes we need a little pick-me-up to get there. Well here are 15 pick-me-ups just for you to help you start your week strong and with a smile.

This little dog just couldn't be happier, and his barber looks equally as pleased!

We all have our heroes, and sometimes when we meet hem face-to-face, things don't always go as planned, but it's clear that those men will remember this adorable moment forever.

We all need a sense of accomplishment for our work. Here, this dog Pippa gets to feel fulfilled for her work!

Sometimes we don't have all the things we think we need, and definitely not all the things we want. But if you've got good people by your side, you don't need the nicest house or the fanciest stuff.

Happiness comes in all shapes and sizes. This man's happiness happens to be dog-shaped at the moment, and who could blame him!

This is just so wholesome. Sometimes what we need when we're feeling overwhelmed is just to unplug and relax with some fresh air, even if for just a few minutes.

Now this is an interview I'd pay to see!

This mom is adorable, and she clearly knows how to find joy in life's little incidents. She could easily have been upset about her kitchen spill, but she chose to laugh instead; we could all learn a thing or two from someone with such a good attitude.

This guy knows what's important. Of course the baby won't really remember what he wore (though there's no doubt she'll have pictures to look back on when she's older!) but the sentiment is a sweet one.

I'm not about to go to college, but can I get one of these anyway? Maybe I'll put it in my office! Now that would cause a few smiles during the workday.

This dog loves you. Most dogs probably love you. Dogs are the best.

Look at this little guy. Have you ever seen something more adorable? If this doesn't make you smile, I don't know what will!

Attn: Fish. This little kid knows who runs the show at the Monterey Bay Aquarium! I'm sure the fish appreciated getting a little mail.

This dog is so adorable. Of course he is a good boy! Don't forget it's always ok to accept well deserved compliments.

And finally, if you're having a particularly hard day, or week, or month, never forget this important sentence: You are enough.
