Now I’m working in the office until 1 on Fridays so my weekend officially starts then. Sometimes on Friday evenings I’ll go shopping. If I do, I try to shoot up to the stores in the afternoon rather than wait for evening. By going in the afternoon on Friday, I beat Friday rush hour traffic. Saturday and Sunday are up for grabs. Sometimes in better weather we’ll be invited to friends’ on Saturday nights to sit around a fire and hang out. Sometimes we’re invited to friends’ on Sundays to join them for their Sunday dinner. Tonight, I’m taking my daughter and three of her friends out for shopping and dinner.
There’s really no hard and fast weekend routine. My main thing is if I have errands to run, I try not to schedule them too early in the morning because I enjoy a leisurely morning of drinking coffee and not rushing out the door.
Normally, before the Pandemic (the “Before Times”) I might be running errands on Saturdays like getting the oil changed or getting my hair done. Now, during the pandemic, working sporadically in the office, I have a lot of time during the week to do those things on week days.
