mondayish

On or around Monday.

I hope to have the job finished by Mondayish.

feeling ill, especially used of clergymen having worked all day Sunday

hungover after a weekend of drinking (as a presumed contributing explanation for a clergyman feeling Mondayish)

You all know that my work on the Sabbath day is very hard, and I used to think that I was entitled to something good after the labors of the day, and generally took a stiff glass of brandy and water. I did this, as I thought, to strengthen me, but I invariably passed a restless night, was always Mondayish, and felt unfit for anything; but since I have given up the brandy and water, I feel as well on Monday morning as I did on Saturday night.

grumpy and disheartened on returning to work on a Monday after the weekend

I feel a bit Mondayish this week at the start of a long project.
