I have the next two days off and I was wondering, what do you all do on your days off? I was off today and I did like a spring cleaning today, lol. The only thing that sucks is that I dont have a car
I do walk and take the bus every where and money is a little tight this week. But just curious because I need some ideas on what to do while I am off for the next few days, I dont wanna sit around on my butt watching tv all day. lol. And I already cleaned today so please some ideas are needed, lol

I'd probably go for a walk, eat lunch out, and then go home and watch a movie.

Or, if I wanted company, I'd invite a friend over for dinner, and we'd probably have some wine, order a pizza, and watch a movie.

Guess I feel like watching a movie.


Cheers, from

p.s. For me, a day off means my husband and daughter are gone, so I don't care for them or cook that day.

Well considering I've had everyday off since October....


I do a lot of cleaning, scrapbooking, quality time with the kitties, catch up on my girly movies, visit friends- family, ect.

I enjoy not going anywhere on my weekends! I like to catch up on my sleep and reading. Plus I'll do some cooking and baking I wouldn't normally do during the week.

If Nate is off too we play CIV 4 multiplayer against each other, I think it is really therapeutic in a marriage to wipe out each others cities with 'virtual' nukes


If I'm off by myself I post on TCS, play single player computer games, and sleep - you can never get too much sleep

I work pretty long hours in the week and while I have spare time inbetween doing stuff for work (waiting for paperwork etc) I can't get into doing anything, so I just relax on weekends and do not much at all

Clean, organize bills, etc. Then check out local art gallerys. Then check out what's on at local movie theatres. Then think about possible home projects. Then decide if I want to sleep in all day with boyfriend and cats!!! The later often wins!!!
Sometimes do the weekend crossword using computer to help. Or read good book if one interests me. Cats and boyfriend can usually participate in this too.
If my beau and I are organized, we'll rent an HBO series such as Rome or Big Love or 24. Love renting those episodics.

I clean house, catch up on laundry and other chores, sleep in, stay up late watching tv, hang out with my best friend and go shopping, get groceries if i need them or go to the pet store, and if my niece and nephews aren't busy- i take them with me and they spend the day with me - i'll pick out a new dish and we'll go to the store and get ingredients then cook the whole meal together
I LOVE spending time with them! / Sometimes on my days off - i spend a ton of time up at the animal shelter helping out there./ I also like to go to the garden stores and shop around and pick up different things to design/paint with. Just depends. When all else fails- SLEEP!

IA. If you need me, just meow..
Usually on my days off, I clean or go shopping. I only get two a week so they are filled before I get them. If I'm on vacation, it's a whole other ballgame!
We do whatever we want for a whole week, but on the last day, it's house cleaning again.

I usually do more work on a day off than when I am in the office!!!!

Still get up early as kids and kitties all need sorting out. Then I normally end up doing the cleaning and ironing that I don't get to do when I am working.

If I have been very organised and nothing needs cleaning, I tend to pop into town and browse round the shops - sometimes with DH if he is not working too
