Are you an outgoing person?
Do you catch up on chores? Or do you try and do as little as possible?  ------------- http://lilypie.com">

a bit of everything.
I like having my housework done on a friday so i dont have to worry to much if we have visitors over the weekend and i dont have to stress about getting it done BUT my house ends up a mess at the end of every day anyway. I like to have one day out and about visiting and seeing family and friends and also one day as family time either at home or going to the park or where ever. I also love entertaining so we often have impromptu dinner parties. |

I stay in my pyjamas all day! Or else we go and visit my in laws up at Helensville on the farm for a big feed and Maya feeds the cows and picks watercress. Sunday used to be housework day till I got busy (or lazy  ) and got a cleaner -------------  Maya Grace (28/02/03)

we try not to do housework on weekends...we try to do washing etc during week and sometimes DH has to do lawns on weekends...we like to have them free..
We are outgoing people...but since getting closer to EDD im finding it harder to drag butt from bed to do anything...and have given DH a lot more freedom as a result...I dont want to go speedboating and figure he needs time before bubs arrives too. I go shopping with mum every second weekend...catch up with friends, via phone or in person for a coffee etc...and that usually takes up at least three hours of good one on one friend chat.... had a coffee group yest - went from 2 - 5 30pm... so our weekends are full...today i am going to botany for a few things, and probably vegging out for most of the day...DH often suggests a sunday tikitour drive...whcih i loved before being preggy but now find a little harder and less comfy! |

Generally about the same as weekdays except maybe a little more lazy!! i try not to do quite so much housework.
We normally go to church on Sunday mornings and sometimes catch up with friends on Saturday nights (excellent Settlers tournament last night!!!). ------------- http://lilypie.com">

I try to do a little as possible at the moment, but also use it to do exactly what I want to do. Hubby uses it potter around outside or in the garage. ------------- ">

Get the housework and other jobs done on Saturday morning.
The rest of the weekend depends on how many kids we have. If we have most/all we will go to the beach, go for a walk somwhere, watch DVD's, play board games, have a hit of tennis etc. If we have none we will often go see a movie, go out for dinner, play a bit of golf, shopping, walks etc. Usually try to visit friends/family. Now that I'm pregnant staying home and reading is becoming more popular. |

same as week days. DH plays cricket all day sat so still home on own and on sunday he is helping my parents do up their rental so once again home on own again. The rental hopefully will be finished in 3 weeks time so get sundays together but there is always something else.
I miss going out with my mates I haven't been out since march last year (as in drinking girl night)In no hurry for the hangover but miss catching up with the girls and having me time. having said that would miss Rhyley if I did go out so no win. ------------- Ann
