What sort of things do you all like to do on the weekends?
When I'm depressed I stay in and watch TV. When I'm not I go dancing, visit the beach, take my dogs on long walks and go to the movies. What do you do? |

I pretty much sit at home and do nothing, unless I'm at work. The only time I really go out is if my one true friend asks me if I want to hang out at all.

I enjoy laying in the sun reading, playing w/ my dog in the sprinkler, watch movies and cry.

Pretty much the same thing I do during the week; surf the Internet and play with my hobbies. I'm in a townhouse so lawn maintenance takes care of the yard. I would like to go out if the weather stays cool. Maybe go to a park with my husband.

I am in touch with friends, go out to meet friends, visit wildlife preserves/trails/reservoirs, attend gatherings, do laundry, cook, entertain, go to concerts -- it varies.
I spend one day a week at my local fish and game club. ![]() WC |

Bike!
Sometimes I run too, but mostly bike. And on rare occasions I'll kayak or swim... or do both. (I have running and biking gear, but no kayaking gear, so I'd have to rent stuff in order to kayak.) I'm a pretty active person, so I always find some kind of activity to do on the weekend, even though I do it all by my lonesome self. ![]() Then I play on my computer and watch TV, or I do work if I skipped out early on Friday (like I did this week). |

I take care of my mother, watch tv, read, and visit the next door neighbor sometimes. I also may do a couple errands. The only relief I have from this is a couple days every couple of months. That is when I relax, or go on a trip.

I sleep lol. I take naps during the day. I play with my son. Over the summer I was hanging out with my sister and brother in law and drinking every weekend. When the school year starts I imagine I'll have to do lesson planning and grading though, so no more of that. Plus I'm taking online classes so I'll Definitely have to do school work.

I'm a homebody, though. I have to see my general doctor late this afternoon. I wish it was earlier...I just want to get it over with. It's not anxiety so much as to the appt...it's more the going out part. But it's rarely as bad as I think it will be. |

Since I work in retail, I usually work on the weekends. It's pretty much a guarantee that I work Sundays since the only Sundays I've had off since February were Palm Sunday (requested off) and Easter when the store was closed anyway. And I've only had 1-2 Saturdays off.

weekends are meaningless when you're unemployed...
