SLEEPING LIKE A ...
Different idioms for sleepyheads.
Monday is normally a hard day, getting up early and energized seems to be impossible at the beginning of the week.
Today I woke up thinking of the English idiom sleep like a log and similar idioms in other languages, and I realized we use the same animals, apart from the famous log.
In German, they use Schlafen wie ein Murmeltier (sleep like a groundhog).
In Italian, they use another animal, dormire come un ghiro (sleep like a dormouse).
In Spanish, we use translations of these three languages, we use dormir como un tronco (sleep like a log), dormir como una marmota (sleep like a groundhog) and also dormir como un lirón (sleep like a dormouse).
However you say it in your mother tongue, I hope you are awake and ready for the day.
Let me finish with an inspirational Monday quote: Each Monday is a canvas and only you choose with which colors you’ll paint it, you create your own mood.
Have a nice week!
