So when the weekend hits, do you all just take it day by day and do whatever you feel like or do you have a routine that you like the follow on weekends? I find that on weekends I always find myself doing laundry and usually if we go out to eat somewhere we do that on the weekend as well. What about you?

We both (me and my boyfriend) work from home, so weekends for us are not different than the business days. I love going out in the weekend days, because most of our friends who work are free at that time. But I don't see any difference for us at home. I do laundry nearly every day, cooking, cleaning ... Sometimes I really would like to have a job out of home, so to be able to rest of the daily responsibilities like that.

I'm envious that you're lucky enough to be able to work from home, I would love to have that! Going out during the week might be more beneficial considering certain places like movie theatres and restaurants might be less hectic, which is what I like. Thanks for the post Suggar.

Do you find it really hard to stay disciplined when working from home? Can you get away with slacking off a little or do you have to stay on a pretty tight schedule?

Believe me, it's not that well as people think. Most of the people think - if I have all of these time, I would do so many things, would plan every single minute to be spent in a good and useful way. Being a home worker since 3 years I would say it was like that long ago. There are some periods when I am just lazy, oversleep, don't want to move and do whatever I have to do ... It's a way of getting lazy person, if there is no good motivation to keep you up.

I think I have both a planned or scheduled activities on weekend as well as unplanned ones. On weekends, I usually do the laundry, some grocery shopping, church and cleaning up. These usually take all morning. After noon, that's when we just decide where we want to go or what we want to do. It's either we go on a road trip, visit grandma's place, try a new resto, or just spend the rest of the day watching movies and eating junk foods. Of course now I have to add in mylotting in the activities. :)

I always like getting the chores out of the way with before deciding on anything fun, sounds like you've got it thought out well. Thanks for you response Raine38.

I like having no commitments and opportunities to be spontaneous on the weekends. Actually, it's Saturday and I'm hungry for a taco so I might need to spend more time on mylot when I return. I absolutely love having the freedom to do whatever I do on my weekends!

I love having a clear schedule and just doing things as I feel like. We never plan days in advance going out for supper, if we feel like it at the time we just do it. Sleeping in on weekends is great also. Thanks for your post sherrybelle

I always find weekends to be such a relief, time to be stress free ( or at least try to be). Thanks for your comment Chibenze
