My friends will all be away from my city and my boyfriend will be working at his 24hr shift on Saturday. This means that he will be sleeping all Sunday until late in the afternoon! I will stay at home on Saturday night, maybe it will be for the best to recover fully. I might watch a movie and spend some time online. How do you spend your weekend if all your friends are out of town and you don't have anyone to hang out with?

That sounds great! I've tried to learn Spanish online but I always forget what I read! I think I am mostly a listening type, and i prefer the traditional way of learning with a tutor. Which language are you learning now?

Are you learning new programs? I started with photoshop last year and now I can work with it and do anything I want! I didn't mind either when I was living alone, but now that I am used to have people around me all the time, it feels strange!

No, I am tired to learn new computer program or applications. I know photoshop already and I have taught that for years in high school students. I am learning new language though.

Children always want your presence and they also keep you company! I like my time alone now but during the weekend I was expecting to do something fun, in order to start next week with good mood! If I stay in the house the whole time it will pass quickly and I won't do anything important!

Haha :) That sounds nice! You have the company of your daughter and you can spend some time with her! I am used to be around friends at the weekend, when everyone is free we go out for coffee or I meet with my boyfriend to eat dinner and watch a movie! Tonight everyone will be unavailable and I will stay at home probably watching films by myself!

My husband just went off to Singapore yesterday and only be back on the 2nd of December. Life will be boring without him because he was the one who will fetch all of us for outing, shopping, dinner etc. So, I think I will take advantage of this quite time cleaning my house and perhaps start decorating for Christmas. Watch some good movie and maybe take the free shuttle with my son to a nearby mall, read some books, window shopping etc. Have a great weekend ahead to you and all of us here at myLot.

Decoration for Christmas is a good idea. Yes house cleaning is also important ,Lot of things need to be bought and arranged for decoration . Hope everything is bought so that decoration part goes well.

It's great, Christmas is coming and we have some decoration to do at the house! I think it will also be a good opportunity for me to decorate the Christmas tree with my mother! But I have no one to go out with if I want to buy gifts or some more decorations! I like shopping alone but I'd like to have a second opinion on the gifts! So I'll have to stay inside and take some rest! Have a great weekend as well!

During weekends i usually go to my parents place since my hubby has his work when im off. So i prefer go somewhere for me to not feel bored though i have my 8 month old son but it would really make me comfortable when i know that there is someone beside me.

Yes since i somehow miss being with them and my mother is always happy whenever we visits there once in a while. i hope you will find also something that will make your day during weekends.

Little babies want a lot of care and I am sure that I would feel better too if I had someone with me all day! It's good that you find time to spend with your family!

Well, hubby will be out for work for a week and won't be coming home to me and my baby. I may not that all alone since hubby's family lives with us, but without hubby in the house feels like we are alone even though we're in a crowded place. I probably would be doing mylot more when hubby is gone, specially when in laws takes care of my baby girl. It's actually good for you, you can have your house to yourself and do whatever you wanna do without any disturbance. I suggest that you sleep more so that you can fully recover those sleepless night that you have.

My mother is still here but she has her own this to do all day. I won't have people to go out with and have a coffee or share our news! I will possibly watch movies at home and maybe prepare the decorations with my mother. She is planning the decorations for days but I was sick and I didn't follow her plans the past few days.

Well, at least you'll be a big help and company with your mom. For sure she'll be happy to have you. May you have a good time with her.

Allot of people these days do things alone. I've noticed people on their laptops at coffee shops. I use to go to the movie theater by myself. My son has went lots of times by himself. There's nothing wrong with doing things by yourself. You can do anything you want by yourself like dining out, for walks etc. I think you just have to be a little more cautious and on the look out when your alone.

It's a small city and people look at me weird if I sit with my laptop alone at the coffe shop. I used to do that all the time when I was living in a big city. They also have a special space at Costa Coffee for laptops and you get free wifi as well! I wish I had a place to go and sit with my laptop without knowing anyone around there!

I will be leaving my family back home to join my ex colleagues for a holiday this weekend. If I have no one to hang out with, I normally will eat, watch tv, read books and SLEEP! My sister-in-law and me loves to eat and sleep. Especially when it is raining season like the current weather. To me it is time to relax and enjoy, no one to disturb me, asked me to do this and that!

It's the same for me! I will probably do all the above until I start my week again on Monday! Let's hope I will have fully recovered as well and feel healthy again! I guess that you will be here this weekend then and chat with all the other mylotters that will stay in!

I am here in mylot for many hours but I like changing environment every once in a while! My eyes get tired from sitting at the computer all day! It's good that you're going to be here, we will all enjoy our weekend together, creating interesting discussions!

I don't have such experience but i think we get a lot of time to spend with ourselves and relax .This is for good actually. Spending time with ourselves. What do you say? Watching a movie and spending time online is good .I would prefer that.

That's true! I intend to spend a lot of time here, since I am in recovery and I am trying to stay warm and cozy in my room. Thank you for your support! I hope that a lot of mylotters will be here this weekend!

Hi friend, It's actually good to be able to spend some time alone with your self. From time to time you also need a time alone with yourself to relax, to enjoy and to meditate. Specially when you are stressed out. If I have the weekend alone I would pretty much do the same thing. Watch movies and rest. I think I'll sleep the whole day to get my body recover all the strength it has lost in my last week. Enjoy you 'Me Time'.

Thanks :) I like being alone at home but I am not used to go out for coffee alone or for food. If I need some company I will call my friends and chat with them for a while! But watching films or reading a new book is probably what I am going to do this weekend!

I do the same like you! The most of the time I will hang around here. Then watch Vampire Diaries and after that take my three dogs outside and play with them. Enjoy yourself and have some fun

Even the dog walk would be something to look forward! I've watched all the VD epeisodes so far, but I was thinking about buying the books. Have you read them? Maybe I will get the first one and start reading, although my friend who has finished all of them says that the show is very different from the books!

Normally, weekends are for fun, I mean you can have a break from all the tiring week especially on weekends.Normally I go to friends place or they come to my place for a movie or fun stuff and it's very rare that all are gone at the same point and time, it's like even if some of your mates are gone, still one or two remains :L. I also play online games in sites like omgpop.com when sometimes you're not in the mood of spending times with your mates on weekends!

This usually happens here as well! But my friends are out of town together, all of them! There is a party that they are going to attend, I was invited too but I was on a trip last week and I couldn't afford another one in the same month! My boyfriend is working, so it's just me! I guess I will spend a lot of time by myself and I will meet everyone on Monday to catch up and learn all the hot news from the party! lol

I will probably have my iPod on all the time with my favorite songs so I wouldn't feel too alone, then probably get ahold of myself some really good books to read. Then take some much needed nap, maybe spend a few hours on mylot, make some overdue phone calls. By then I would be tired or hungry or both but definitely that must have kept me from missing my friends.

I like watching movies, and this is one of the things that I will do for sure! Then I might find the Cristmas decorations and go through them with my mother to see what we are going to keep! I will get some sleep as well and then, I am not sure what to do the rest of the days! lol You have a good plan here, thanks for sharing!
