Is a 4 day weekend long enough or do you still feel exhausted afterwards? I feel like I need a week in between my weeks. 😅

It's the holiday weekend so with the cooking and cleaning it's not really much of a break. I don't think a week between my weeks would help though, it would be the same.

smart

Same for me. I usually try to take a day off at the end of the holiday, so I can have me time after everything is said and done.

Still exhausted here too. A week off would be great, two even better 😂

The more time I take off, the more exhausted I feel about going back to work 😂 I don't think I meant to have a job. I'm meant to be a stay at home cat 🐱

LOL I always say I wish I was my cat.

I didn't get all 4 days. Working today. *sigh*

I don't want to sound like a you-know-what (too late), but if you wanted a week off for Thanksgiving, two weeks off for Christmas, numerous Mondays off during the year, and 8-10 weeks off in the summer, you should've become a teacher. In most other career fields, the people you serve still need your attention even on holidays.

It's not that serious, sir. It was just a lighthearted joke, everyone wants more time off. If I was a teacher I would still probably feel like I needed more time off.

Long weekends definitely need to be longer

Lol, I would love a week off too, but I won't complain. I've just been trying to catch up on sleep as much as possible. Last night, I got the best sleep I have gotten in a while.

I always feels like "Oh I feel so energized. I'm ready for the week ahead. Then as soon as I get to work, I feel so tired.

Me too!!

Curious to know how much your student loans were when you graduated from your program, how much you’ve paid off so far, and your age. If you have any varying factors too, like kids, income range, etc. Just trying to see if I’m on track or slacking in life. I am 34 yo, i graduated with 95k in student loans, i currently have 85k left and i make 85k in come. I’m also a single mom with two kids. Just praying for 100% student loans forgiveness. Wishful thinking???
