Is it grammatically correct to say
"I looked forward to going to work everyday because i was having fun at work"
 
For the sentence to be grammatically correct, 'every day' would have to be two words and it would have to end with a full stop (period).
 
Also, the pronoun "I" is always capitalized, even when it is in the middle of a sentence.
 
If I get it right what you're trying to say, I would modify your sentence as follows
'Every morning I would look forward to going back to work because of all of the fun I used to have there'.

1. Everyday means ordinary. Every day means at least once in every 24-hour period.

2. You're asking a question, so your sentence needs to end with a question mark.
 
It would be less wordy and more natural to say "I looked forward to going to work every day because it was fun" or "... because I had fun there".
