Friday afternoons generally find me that wrung out too but an evening of hibernating followed by a long night's sleep and a Saturday spent doing frivolous things usually puts me right.

I love my job, and I love the guys I work with, and I certainly don't have a demanding job by any means, most of the time. But I still look forward to my weekends, and I love Friday nights. Friday nights are for Chinese food, television, and knitting, and Saturday is my errand day--I go to the grocery store, the bank, the post office, get lunch out somewhere, and go to the gym. I spend a long time there: I walk a mile or so on the treadmill, do my weight training, then sit in the whirlpool for awhile, then the sauna. On Sundays I usually stay home all day, maybe work in the garden if the weather is nice. I read, I do more knitting, I mess around on the computer.

It recharges me for the next five days at work.
