My Saturday usually starts with marketing chores before or right after breakfast. I would buy from the wet market food for the weekend. What follows is the grooming of our 3 dogs - bathing and cleaning everything that needs cleaning. After lunch, I get some rest and more likely a nap. In the mid afternoon, I would go to the salon for my hair and I also get a foot spa that includes cleaning of my nails. Remember the ingrown nails? And before dinner time, I go to church. After breakfast on Sunday, I would leave for my sister's to visit my mother. We would go to the supermarket to buy my mother's needs and then proceed to the drug store, again for my mother's medications. I would have lunch there and leave by 3pm. That's my typical weekend. How about you?
My weekdays and weekends are all the same. One long go round of coffee, TV, internet and sleeping. I'm retired.
Pretty much weekdays and weekends are the same for us, too. We do go to the fitness center pretty faithfully every other day, unless something happens that disrupts the schedule. We both enjoy going to the fitness center, so that is something that we look forward to. Bobby is still finishing up that rental house that he has been working on for the owners, who also run the little convenience store down on the corner from our house. Yardwork has been neglected lately, due to weather. It seems like it is either way too hot and steamy/muggy, or it is rainy and stormy. One of these days , we will get to the lawnmowing and weedeating though. In the spring and fall, we spend a lot more time outside when the weather is not too hot or too cold;but in summer and winter, we just do what is necessary out there. Swimming is also part of the daily routine, unless we are having thunder-boomers and it is not safe to get in the pool. Otherwise, we sunbathe and swim just about every afternoon. When we need food, then I go to the grocery store, usually Kroger since that is the closest one, and do the shopping. Once a month, we go to Sam's Club and stock up on things we buy in larger quantities, like coffee. So, that is pretty much how life goes for Bobby and for me.
My days off change but usually my first day off I'm too tired to do much but usually leave the apartment to go to the grocery store. Yesterday I bought some yarn. Run the dishwasher. Second day off is usually my weekly run to Trader Joe's. Laundry. Then worry about work tomorrow. I'm heavily considering part time and got on the phone today with Covered California and got some good information.
On average I get one full weekend off in every 3. so I work most Saturdays..and on the Sunday I'm too tired and sore after a hard week to do anything much but basic chores around the house. When I do get a full w/e off work, I spend the first day recovering and staying home and the following day we'll often visit somewhere picturesque for lunch with friends and then come home and both of us will spend the rest of the day catching up with the gardening, the household chores.. catching up with emails , and preparing ourselves for returning to work on Monday!
Our weekends can be varied things. I'm retired and my wife has every weekend off of work (of which we both love). On Saturday and/or Sunday it's either breakfast at home or out. Somewhere during the weekend, shopping at Walmart fits into the program. When our boat is "up and running", the weather is right, will take it out on the water for a few hours. Depending on the weather, we might hit the Gun & Rifle Range for a couple of hours. Sometimes Saturday night is "out to dinner" for us. Unless it's just too darn hot outside, like it generally is this time of the year here, we try to keep our weekends occupied doing different things. With family states away and no children/grandchildren, we just do our own thing. Even a nice 2-hour nap on a Saturday and/or Sunday afternoon might happen.
