| BCoF ~ Write about your favorite Saturday activity. Well, I am one of those people who does not really sleep in on non-work days. Obviously...Not on Workdays Either...that would be utterly Ridiculous, and, er, well...Risky! I don't Always set my alarm on the weekends (only sometimes), but when I do, it is extremely early; pretty much the same time that I wake on for work...4:30 a.m. If I do not get up Very, Very early, I felt like half the day is lost, even If I do not do anything special. What do I do so early?! Drink coffee and read/write before my husband wakes up and demands my attention, as husbands are wont to do. Once he has awakened, usually between 7:00 ~ 7:30, I have More coffee with him When we don't need to run to town for groceries or some such atrocious activity, I like to relax on Saturdays, doing the above. Drinking Lots of coffee, lots of reading, and recently (once more) writing. We usually walk around our acreage a few times a day, which I would enjoy more, were not our yard so torn up at the moment. It is getting better, through our continuous toil, but not quite enjoyable to look at, and not very easily traversed. What else. loving on our dog, walking with our dog. Hanging out with our grandkids on the weekends that they visit. Cooking with my husband. This is the only time that we Really cook, as we both work, and drive an hour or more to get home. We try to make dinners that will last a few nights, then just throw together very basic eats for the rest of the week. Basically just taking it easy...that's the motto that I try to follow on the weekends. BC ~ James A. Murphy says, “It's not that we spend five days looking forward to just two. It's that most people do what they enjoy most on those two days. Imagine living a life where everyday are your Saturdays and Sundays. Make everyday your weekend. Make everyday a play-day…" What day of the week do you accomplish the most? If you're retired do you still plan activities for the weekend? Would you be happy with every day as a play day? I could reiterate the above activities, but that would be sort of totally monotonous! But....if I did not have to work, and everyday was free to do as I chose, I suppose I could fir in more activities. One thing that I would love to demand from this quote/prompt, though, would be that...Every single day would be High Summer!! |
