Already looking forward to the weekend

May 25th, 2010 at 01:59 pm

I live near a beach - about 1.5 hours away, but everyone travelling to that beach goes through my area to get there. Roads are backed up, people are jerks in traffic, and the beaches get crowded. So while a lot of friends & coworkers go down to the beach this weekend, I will not.

I have a limited entertainment budget, so my goal is to entertain myself at home. I really just want to rejuice my mental batteries and get my house in order. Especially since I did not do that this weekend.

I already have plans in mind: renting some movies from REdbox, starting redecorating in the downstairs bath (no money out yet - just removing things, spackling and sanding), treating a little mold in my basement, gardening, hitting the gym and just resting.

What are you planning on doing for the holiday weekend?

    Ugh - I know what you mean - I live about half way between Tahoe and San Francisco, so the traffic gets insane every weekend (people going both ways), but weekends like this are the worst.

    My aerobics instructor was surprised no one was going to be out of town, for class Saturday. I Was thinking, "I never go anywhere on a holiday weekend!" Ugh!

    No plans - was just going to stick close to home. Big Grin Cleaning the house, maybe some casual get together with any friends who stuck around... Watching movies, playing board games, bike rides, whatever we usually do.

    hehe - we used to live near a beach ... it was six minutes walk from our front door Big Grin Now we live 25 minutes away and for us that is a LOOOOONG long way away from the beach.

    this weekend I am working Saturday morning, tidying the house in the afternoon, taking the dogs for a walk and doing laundry. Then on Sunday I plan to do nothing until the afternoon, when I have to meet a friend for coffee and shop for another friends baby shower present. Big Grin
