Weekending

I generally have one of two kinds of weekends.

I have productive weekends. “Productive” doesn’t even necessarily entail getting anything in particular accomplished. Just weekends wherein I feel like my time was spent well, doing exactly what I needed to be doing. Those weekends are generally restful and leave me feeling like a grown-up.

But then there are weekends like this one. Weekends where it doesn’t matter what I do because I just feel like I should be doing something else. Where I feel petulant, lazy or slightly hungover the whole time. Where I can’t be satisfied. Where I never feel happy with myself. And where I am not mentally prepared for the work week come Monday.

Do you have crappy weekends? Is this a strictly-me phenomenon?

Hi, I’m Dootsie. No, that’s not my real name, but it is the name that basically everyone in my life calls me. I am a 30 year-old editor/digital content trafficker/graphic designer living in Central Kentucky. When I’m not working on a magazine, I’m staring at a cat and pretending to be interesting. I’m incredibly officious and jam-packed with trivia.

Indeed. Sometimes I have to work through the weekend so when Monday comes I think it’s Friday. VERY not mentally prepared.

  I hate working weekends. I never realize how much of a schedule my life is on ’til I mess with my “off” time.

“Where I feel petulant, lazy or slightly hungover the whole time.” I so know this feeling and it happens more often for me during the winter time. I can’t wait for more sunny days so that I feel more energized and getting things done around the house doesn’t feel so draining.
We went out for a while today and I was so tired from that I fell asleep on the sofa this evening, it is Sunday, geez, it is not like today was a rough day at work.

  Haha Sundays are always such lazy days for me, anyway. I usually wake up a bit stiff and all my goings are slow for the rest of the day. < old lady.
  I'm so ready for spring to happen. I'll feel better just being able to get outside sometimes.
