Is Friday A Full Workday For You?

by Anne Wayman on May 2nd, 2008

question_mark.jpgFor some reason I have a real sense of TGIF today. Usually Friday’s are pretty much like any other weekday for me, but not this one.

You’d think I was taking off on a trip or something, but all I have scheduled is dinner with one of my kids and his family tomorrow, and a visit with anther one Sunday… always fun, but not like a vacation.

Soooooo… I’m I the only one feeling like celebrating the end of the week? What are your plans for the weekend?

    I usually wake up to write at 5am everyday ..so on Friday I look forward to sleeping in on Saturday as I am not allowed to work on weekends!!weekends are for my husband ..this Sunday, however its my ma in law’s birthday and since she is visiting us from London we have to take her out to someplace nice..

    If I have a pretty full work week, my Fridays are the most business. I still procrastinate until then, but only a little. Take today for instance. I may be working a bit later than I want, but it’s okay. I can’t wait for Saturday!

    Fridays are for fun in this house. :) Well, if cleaning house and ordering out are “fun”.

    Fridays are often crunch day for me. Many of my clients see the last day of the week as the “absolute” deadline, probably so they don’t have to worry about it all weekend. So I’m often scrambling with last minute additions/rewrites/tweaks.

    TGIS!

    clients can be funny about deadlines, but I’ve been able to pretty much set my own unless there’s something outside me and the client demanding it… like a newspaper, etc.

    Cleaning isn’t fun, but it sure has to be done… I seem to do that on Saturdays altho now that spring is here I probably should switch that to Fridays

    Fridays are full workdays for us, as are many Saturdays. We get paid for what we do when working not for what we do on our time off. Fortunately, we love what we do, so when we say “TGIF,” we mean “TGIF so we have another day to work!”
