Well, what a week this has been. Discussions deleted, long-standing members being*trolled*, lots of unhappy people. Now the weekend is here and I will be off line now until Tuesday morning. I have a good weekend to look forward to, celebrating my partner's birthday today and a party arranged for him for Saturday night. A day out planned for Sunday and we have the spring bank holiday as well. I expect the weather will be it's usual unpleasant self over the weekend and back to the sunshine on Tuesday morning, but we plan to have a great time regardless of the weather. So, my friends, what are you planning to do over the weekend? Staying in, going out, working in the garden, maybe a short holiday?

I'm off of work today but work tomorrow. Its hard not to have to work Saturday's when you are in retail. I'm off on Sunday and then go back on Monday. No doubt, the time I have off will be spent cleaning the house. Its so easy to get behind when you are working. Nothing too exciting, perhaps the highlight of the weekend will be grocery shopping. LOL.

hi kbourgerie I wasalways stuck on the sat and sun bit when I worked in the library as I was one of the few in the staff who did no longer have a hubby guess they figured my son was not family so now in a way I am glad I am retired. Sats and Suns int the library werealways super busy not that I did not like working there as I did, I loved it but just once in awhile I used to wish for a Sat or Sunday off.

Well being as it's a long weekend i'm going to be just lazy. I had planned to perhaps do some decorating and stuff, but just cannot be bothered lol, besides I've got so much planned for the bank holiday at the end of May I think i'm just going to enjoy the long weekend! Anyhow have a lovely weekend, just had a quick peek at the weather forecast, the weekend is going to be a washout but apparently it's going to be a lovely hot day on Monday! Well here's wishing!

LOL I love the way you are do realistic about the weather, it seems that it usually works like that for us too hehehehehe I wish you the most wonderful weekend, regardless of the weather, and will be waiting for tuesday for you to tell us how great it was :) As for mine.. funny you should ask that.. I have mixed feelings about mine. I need to do some shopping because food is disappearing from the fridge faster than we can put it in LOL And I need to do some laundry. But my headache is still here a bit. On sunday I had finally agreed to go with two of my friends on a trip to Niagara Falls. Kind of a girls day out. But I am now wishing that I hadn't. I would rather rest. But I always tell them I can't go because I have so many things to do. They always call me to go with them and I never do, so I thought that maybe I could just go this time. I guess I'm not exactly in the moss for it - but then again, lately when am I ever in the mood? I almost told hubby to call them and tell them that I am sick - I know, the coward's way out - but it's just one day. And I will end up enjoying some time out anyways.

Hey hun, I hope you managed to get some fun despite the headache.

Thank God its Friday!! Though i am responding on a Saturday afternoon. But i am quite relaxed this weekend.. After having a lot of ups and downs here at mylot, I ahve finally crossed my little aim for the month of April. I have earned 5 dollars in the month of April which is a quite lot to me. I got my first payout after 3 months posting over 300 responses. And now after having an irritating week with my number of responses being decrementing in bulk (around 10 of my responses got deleted in 3 days), i am still sticking around that 415 mark. And i have managed to cross 5 dollars mark by posting around 100 responses.. Moreover i feel quite satisfies this weekend bcoz i have contributed a good amount of work to my office project. Looking forward for the weekend, well friday night so it was a party time, had drinks and fun all night but unfortunatley i had to report to the office today morning so as a result i am siting here in office and using internet.. But i am looking forward to enjoy my weekend with my friends.. Cheers !!

Yes it is quite hectic on here lately and I have noticed a lot of deletions going on. I hope that you have a fantastic weekend it sounds like lots of fun and I wish it was me but although it is Bank Holiday weekend for us, he is at work so no special plans for us. But we go away in 3 weeks so that is something I am really looking forward to!! The weather for the weekend here is rain, rain oh and did I mention rain!!

I always long for the weekend, I look at it as a good break to relax and unwind. Be with the family, do some minor house-chores and spend some time with friends. I always go out every afternoon, after finishing some work at home which I do at mornings..

I have been having a rest for four days from April 30 till today--May 3rd, as this is our May Day holiday. I will have to work from tomorrow. I am so happy that I feel so good for the holidays, doing whatever I am crazy about, like surfing on the Internet in my own apartment. Take care, dear recycledgoth.

I can't say that I get any big thrill about it being Friday as I work the weekend shifts. Unlike most people I get excited when Monday finally arrives. I get 3 days off during the week which is great especially in the summertime. When all my friends are working....I can be on an uncrowded beach somewhere.

Definitely! Because my son is waiting in our province. I want to play with him. Every weekend is our bonding time. I also want to see my mom and have chat with her.

As a matter of fact, I have nothing to do this weekend other than have my break from school. You know what that means! I'll be on myLot all day Saturday and Sunday! Ah, maybe I will go biking or rollerblading or something. The weather is too nice to not take advantage of. Now, about the long-standing members being *trolled*, why do people even troll?!?! It is so pointless and if you have something to say about their opinion, these are discussions for a reason. DISCUSS! Anyways, let your partner know I wish him a happy birthday and I hope the two of you have a great weekend!
