I’m currently lounging on my sofa watching shitts creek with a face mask and a cup of tea. My taxes aren’t close to being done and I’m anxious. But I need to self care
I haven’t touched my taxes yet either. 😩
I don’t do anything on Saturdays and use Sunday to clean and other light work around the house. Sunday evening used to be packing time, but now I just go to sleep earlier and conk out with a bit of melatonin (living wild over here lol)
No guilt here! I'm newly pregnant, and between previous overwork and future childcare responsibilities, I know that there will be very little true downtime in my future, so I am being lazy AF and self indulgent as much as I can right now.
Weekends are for NOTHING
Spend so much time sitting at a desk during the week. If I don’t end up doing some sort of outdoor activity on the weekend I get that guilty feeling you’re talking about.

I take Saturday’s off, use Sunday mornings to clean up for the week and start working from Sunday evening because of this “guilty feeling” 😳
Yup me allll the time! I go from watching 6 hours of Netflix to deep clean the house.
CPA here. First full weekend off in 2021 and I feel this in my soul.
This is 2 weeks away for me and I can feel myself about to explode
I’ve managed to delude myself into believing I don’t care and have balance while watching soccer and doing administrivia and emails on a Sunday ahead of the work week. Don’t be me.

YES! Even after my agency work day ends if I spend more than 1 hour watching tv instead of working on freelance work or personal projects I feel so guilty. This extends to the weekend too except I do make time for seeing people or getting outside. Any time I’m just chillin in the house, immense guilt.
Every weekend for the past couple of months I have told myself that I would not do anything but enjoy the day, besides the necessary chores of course. Every time I have lied to myself and ended up working between 9 and midnight. Last night was no different.
I'm not even sure if I know how to stop.
yes, and then even if I can get over my own feelings about being not productive my wife is very effective at pointing out how lazy I am being on the weekend😂😂
Every week.

I usually start an audio book while cleaning the house on Sunday’s to feel less guilty
Nope
Absolutely. I’m an independent contractor so I COULD make money or prospect on the weekends and get closer to my income goal on any day. However....
