What do you do on a weekend?

That's great! I hope you manage to get back into your writing - I'd like to write something one day, but for now I stick to journalling or making notes about whatever book I'm reading just to keep myself in the practice of it all really - maybe you'd find that helpful too? I'm not certain.

I wish I had the choice but I get bored with sleep and there is no point trying to sleep when it gets so frustrating.

Yep, I hate how busy places can be on the weekend, and I really dislike traffic - luckily I start work at 8 so I avoid a lot of it!

What music do you like? Do you listen to music and draw at the same time, or do you separate the two?

Golly, getting up at 5:30 am, that's more of a late night to me than a morning! I rarely get to sleep before 1am and more like 2 or 2:30 am, it wouldn't feel worth going to bed if I was to get up that early.

I absolutely get this. What sort of stuff are you watching at the moment? Do you ever repeatedly watch the same shows?

Thanks for this Wib, I think a weekend job would probably be a good idea for me just so I can keep myself occupied. I do like to prepare myself for the week ahead by relaxing a little, but then I beat myself up about being so unproductive especially with me managing quite a lot Monday-Friday.

I can completely relate to you on a few things here: I also find my motivation coming and going in waves - I find establishing a routine helps with this but that's difficult to do when you're working an a house and you've got various different projects going on inside of the big project itself. I also get anxious about upcoming social events and I avoid the vast majority of them.

Also I've read your profile, and I'd love to know what you think about the latest Wallace & Gromit film, I absolutely loved it.

Is this something you do regularly? Do you find yourself chatting with the other people on the day trip?

Like you, I am awake around 5.30am and get on with housework otherwise it would not get done. I cycle around to collect a newspaper and go out again in the afternoon. Sundays, I ride with the local cycling club and enjoy a fast pace ride to a cafe somewhere between forty and seventy miles. If not cycling then litter picking.    

Saturdays and sundays are pretty much like any other days really, I'm not a huge fan of weekends, to many people around, crap telly.

I tend to spend most of my free time playing on my PC or reading generally, broken up with a bit of a walk or maybe a run. I hope to get back to writing again when I feel up to it. That is my big passion really

Normally my weekends don't consist of much. I always try to stay in because places are busier on the weekend, though this last weekend I had to drive to Glasgow to pick up my sister and brother-in-law, very stressful as there was so much traffic.

Most weekends are normally slower paced where I stay in, listen to music and draw. Sometimes I go out for a walk but most of the time I'll stay inside and draw.

My weekends generally don't consist of very much. Most of them are spent binge watching TV, reading and trying to catch up with the housework I haven't done all week. Oh and napping, I do love a nap. If I can persuade myself to I'll go for a walk. But I think my weekends are mostly about recovering from my week in work ready for the next week in work. Occasionally I will have a day or evening out. But I'm not very good at social anything so it rarely involves other people except for immediate family.

My weekends vary. I work some weekends so that speaks for itself. However if I’m not working I like to try and plan at least one social activity. For me this involves spending time with my friends or partner. But, if that’s not possible you can always look up social groups in your area.

Aside from social commitments I do hobbies such as: going to the gym, reading, walking, scrapbooking, puzzles, watch movies/shows and catching up on my favourite youtubers.

I also take the time at the weekend to catch up on chores and prepare myself for the week ahead. Like laying out a general schedule.

My weekends are often spent working on my house which has been a project for quite some years. I tend to get stuck into it and then have a spell of not having any enthusiasm to do it anymore, I then give myself a bit of a hard time until I get back into it. There’s a pattern there for sure. I also like to spend as much time with my children as I can and love going out in nature and motor biking (not both at the same time as that would not be fair on the wildlife) I also like to watch tv, do some gaming and watch movies. 
I have spent most of this weekend thinking and preparing for an upcoming party next weekend, which I am honestly dreading. I always make it through one way or another but it’s painful and I don’t belong. 

Yesterday I went on a coach day trip.  The coach was completely full.  We spent 2 hours in the North Yorkshire town of Richmond followed by 2.5 hours in the town of Northallerton.   Both very nice market towns with lots of rich people living in them.  It made a good change from my city life.
