TommyK Posted June 5, 2011 Share Posted June 5, 2011 Spent the morning, cultivating the garden, transplanting, mowing, trimming, spraying weeds, repairing the lawn tractor, rearranging the yard barn, moved some lawn ornaments, then came in for lunch. It was near 90°F, and I was bushed so I took a nap. After a 2 hour nap, I watered the garden, then painting more lawn ornaments, more adjustments to the lawn tractor, then supper. After supper finished watering plants, put away the tools used during the day and backed the lawn tractor into the yard barn, then locked her up tight. Now I'm up and cannot get to sleep, owing to the after lunch nap. Monday is going to be a bear if my body gets used to these mid-afternoon naps.

WahKeen Posted June 5, 2011 Share Posted June 5, 2011 I hear ya. Sometines I have so many honeydos on Saturdays that it feels like I have 6 day weeks. But overall, they're not bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
retrosurfer1959 Posted June 5, 2011 Share Posted June 5, 2011 Yep they can get busy but at least you can be drunk when your doing your chores at home and you can wear your crappiest clothes so it still beats the office most ways. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LarryUK Posted June 5, 2011 Share Posted June 5, 2011 I love a nap of an afternoon. Or in the morning or the evening. ;-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChanMan Posted June 5, 2011 Share Posted June 5, 2011 Whoever came up with this "5 day work week, 2 day week end" crap should be summarily fired and replaced with someone clueful. Just sayin'... what happened to "Balance"?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EVOL! Posted June 6, 2011 Share Posted June 6, 2011 You need to learn to power nap. Fifteen minutes max. Trust me on this. Teach yourself to shut down quickly, recharge, and rise back up. Two hours will get you into trouble come bed time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rct Posted June 6, 2011 Share Posted June 6, 2011 I work 4 10s, so off every Friday. Have for years. Next step is telework on Thursdays, so I would be home more days than at work. Scwheet. Hope to be doing that by the end of this year. rct Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LPguitarman Posted June 6, 2011 Share Posted June 6, 2011 Sometimes I come into work Monday morning to rest. Other times my weekends are leisurely. Depends on what is going on and how high the grass grows. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
damian Posted June 6, 2011 Share Posted June 6, 2011 The perfect honey to do comes over for a while and then goes home! Which can be cost effective as well.........But they charge extra for the oblicitory cuddling stuff..... :unsure: ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShredAstaire Posted June 6, 2011 Share Posted June 6, 2011 Sounds like some of you are wearing the skirts in your relationships. Sure I have honeydo's but i balance them out and they get done when they get done. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bowdiddley Posted June 6, 2011 Share Posted June 6, 2011 I say honeyno when those honeydos start out weighing the wanttodos. Amen brother! Here at my house I taught my wife how to "call the guy" so her honeydos don't get in the way of my wanttodos! You need to learn to power nap. Fifteen minutes max. Trust me on this. Teach yourself to shut down quickly, recharge, and rise back up. Two hours will get you into trouble come bed time. That's what we did while I was in the Navy, completely recharges a person. Hmmm........I'm thankful for everyday I'm still alive................just sayin'.. I figured that one out after my transplant, it sure beats the alternative!
