I’m embarrassed to say that so far my Saturday has consisted of reading and posting on various lemmy instances. Is that how I typically spend my weekend? No. I should log off, and go do weekend stuff.

Well, I’m here, aren’t I?

I spend my weekend thinking about the things I should be doing on the weekend.

Spending time with my family since I don’t see them a lot during the week due to my work schedule. House project. Lots and lots of house projects.

I volunteer for a local non profit building out business processes in the cloud. Super cool and keeps my coding skills sharp.

Prevent my 2 and 1 year old from killing themselves. Then I watch reruns of Seinfeld.

In general, trying to get my kids to actually do something. Sometimes I go out and eat tacos.

Board games and video games and D&D on Sundays.

…

My mom thinks I’m cool

Grocery shopping, going to the beach, farmers markets, reading, video games, catching it up on streaming shows, calling my mother, trips to places we haven’t been before, etc. Also wife likes me to take her to garage and estate sales.

Saturdays Clean the house; my thoroughness varies by week. Make some kind of single-pot meal that can be refrigerated and eaten for the next 2 or 3 days. Laundry if I feel like it. Putz around until nighttime, and then usually watch a movie or a show. Go to bed late, which for my middle-aged ass is like 11:00.

Sundays Breakfast at a restaurant with my wife. Someplace new every week. Finish cleaning if I must. Yard work if the neighbors are becoming hostile. Half the time I go see a movie in early afternoon. Existential dread until bedtime.

Meal prep, laundry, and napping

After a week working as a special Ed teacher, my weekends are spent recharging watching horror movies on Netflix with my girlfriend and dog. Then, doing any chores I neglected doing during the week. Cant wait for summer break!

If it’s a sunny day, I’m skydiving and hanging out at the drop zone. Else I’m at home playing video games.

Go see a movie, go to the mall, find a new place to eat a meal, these are some random things that we regularly do.

Stuff that happens almost every weekend: laundry, cleaning, grocery shopping, video games, or vegging with the latest series we’re binging together.

Used to spend a lot of time in the pool every weekend, but we sold that house because I didn’t want to take care of the pool anymore (getting too expensive for my tastes). Now we bought a house on a river and my wife wants to get a boat. I think I want the pool back😆

Making music, playing music, cooking\smoking food, or eating out. It’s not much but it’s honest work.
