Well weekend is just about to be over and I am still struggling with my to do list for weekends. To do list!! Yes, that’s right. Every Friday evening, I make my to do list for weekends.
I write on sticky notes and make sure to complete maximum out of it. I feel an ache on Monday if I find maximum part of my to do list undone. It makes my Monday morning more bluer.
So, why do I write to do list or make sure to spend quality weekends when I know it is the time to party ,relax and sleep.
For a working person, where long commutation, 8+ hours of job and other family commitments take a major pie of the life, it is the weekends which provide some spare time, a time to relax, follow some of the hobbies, finish some of undone tasks and yes to find me time for themselves.
Being a working mom, I know the importance of free time and the moment I let it skip from my hands, I have to wait for another week to do something I wanted to do.
So, here are some general tips that I would suggest everyone on how to spend their weekends.
Wake up early during weekends
Well, if you are really looking for some Me time, then don’t oversleep on weekends. Instead try to wake up an hour before every one wakes up. An hour extra time during weekends can work wonder. Also, you feel more energetic and enthusiastic with the idea of not spending your weekend lazing around.
