It’s Feel Good Friday once again and I have a confession. Are you ready??? Here it is…I am usualy happier during the week than on the weekend…. I know, I’m so embarrassed 🙂Don’t get me wrong I love Friday just like most of you. I am always happy leaving work on Friday afternoon knowing I dont have to go back or think about work until Monday. The thing is on the weekend I have that too much idle time problem that I told you about in my Devil’s Workshop post. Then I get bored. Where as during the week most of my time is filled with work and boredom is not an issue.
So, on this Feel Good Friday I’m making a list (I guess you’ve noticed how much I like making lists) of things to do this weekend to keep that Feel Good Friday
Vibe going all weekdnd long.- Catch up on those ZZZZZ – Well rested folks are never the cranky ones
- Go to church – Good for the spirit
- Exercise – Good for destressing and great for the figure
- Visit a museum for a little culture – The Philadelphia Museum of Art has Pay what you wish all day on the First Sunday of each month
- Curl up with a good book – A great escape
- Visit the library – actually go in and stay a while. Treat it as you would a bookstore (of course minus the starbucks or seattle’s best)
- Take your dog (or cat if they go for the leash thing) for a long walk in a scenic park
- Go out to that new restaurant you been meaning to try
- Clean – I know who wants to clean right? Pick a small project, that
cluttered junk drawer, desk, medicine cabinet and take 30 minutes and
make it sparkle. You will feel good when it’s done. - Reconnect -Call or visit an old or new friend
- Do some self pampering – give yourself a mincure, pedicure or facial
I’m sure you have plenty of Joy filled weekend activities. Please comment so I can add them to my list.
Have a Joy filled Weeekend.

I have the same problem when I have too many choices. And I like to just read and relax on the rare opportunities when I have the time, but then the weekend passes and I've done nothing fun or productive. These days, I'm going for at least one or the other! -Sarah
I need to start making these things an appointment that cannot be cancelled 🙂 Thanks for the ideas!
Love the list! I did not know that about the Philadelphia Museum of Art. I will have to look into that & try to get there with our granddaughter. OK, so she's only going on 4 weeks old but it is never to early to give them exposure to something other than the TV! Sadly, February won't work… Super Bowl Sunday LOL.
Our weekends tend to go by too quickly. Hubby is off Sunday & Monday each week. We have to fit all of our errands in along with spending time with family as often as possible. Now with Soup being here at least every other weekend, that takes my focus. I have however started to choose to do little things throughout the week to keep me from being bored & still be productive. I'm a stay at home mom with no kids home all day LOL.
Great post! I plan to do a few things on the list, I am definitely looking forward to curling up with a good book tonight, and sleeping in before going to the gym tomorrow!
I loove this list! I need to do so many things on this list, you have no idea. Thanks for the advice, especially about cleaning. Pick a little project, get it done and you'll feel like you've accomplished something. Love it!
