Weekends can be perfect for relaxation moments but eventually also to plan well the next week

Do you have a plan for the new week you want to better organize ?

My husband and I will be going camping with some friends. I
@Zengrl
Hi Zengrl, i am sorry to hear that it is a bit of a dfficult moment.
I wonder if he knows how you feel and whether in case you'd share that with him in case you think it may help the connection between you two.
Strong couples that last in time are not those for which everything is perfect but those that are able to get over the storms.
I really wish you this is your case and that this difficult moment will help you two in growing and be even stronger, together.
Take care and enjoy the weekend the best you can!
@BeyondTheInvisible he knows and weve had talks on it. Lately he wants a baby too, so this trip allows him to play with kids. Im way past the age of babies and never wanted to have kids. Anyway, these are my friends too, but it just becomes less restful when its a group. Thanks for your reply and for caring. The trip will be ok.
@Zengrl
Yes, I really hope the trip will be ok for you.
I hope he realizes that caring for children is something more than spending a weekend in a playful relaxing situation, they are individuals that need parents to grow in health and care to be independent adults one day. They can not be something for which an adult feels to be "young and strong" so if he needs to seek for this feedback he probably needs to talk about his mild-age crisis with you, hopefully in a deep way.
Best wishes for you two as couple.
@Zengrl, oh my gosh...me too! I go with my husband and his band family. I love them all but they are, afterall, his friends.
Funny how you can be in such a large group and feel so lonely.
Hope you find some peace, and maybe a little fun too <3
@sensitiveInNaz So the weekend was as you described
@Zengrl
He appreciates his friends but I'm invisible when we are with them. I'm a bit shy and they are all very boisterous. I don't drink and they all do.
It's very difficult.
I'm sorry your weekend was below expectations but I'm also proud of you for finding the joy in the kid's laughter.
Hugs!
@sensitiveInNaz yesss invisible! That is exactly the word. Hugs to you too. We arent invisible here. 
What are you going to do during this weekend?
Friday is rehearsal, yay! Chores on Saturday, plus a trip to Target to get some gym shorts. Sunday just groceries.
Do you have a plan for the new week you want to better organize ?
Next week my GF comes home. I have plans, well organized.
@BeyondTheInvisible hope you have a good weekend!
Weekends can be perfect for relaxation moments but eventually also to plan well the next week
Right now I thing the relaxing part sounds wonderful!
What are you going to do during this weekend? I actually did most of my errands already so I may just watch sports and nap, play games.
Do you have a plan for the new week you want to better organize ? I am very excited about the 50+ discussions (we had two this week with over 20 joining the room). This week, we have scheduled one on Tuesdays at 2:30PM to 3:30PM EDT and Friday at 2PM EDT. On Friday we are having a discussion topic from 2-3PM and afterwards we have an informal chat from 3PM - 4PM with interested people in the chat room. What a great way to meet other people in the community. Hope to see you there or let me know when a better time is for you and we try to accommodate.
@soulsings
Glad to hear everything is going well!
@BeyondTheInvisible yes looking to find out other times people need discussions to happen or times people can offer discussions.
I am in the thick of the battle. The amount of stress in my home is so heavy it is crushing. I broke my toe and cannot drive so I am stuck here. Sitting outside in the cool of the evening helped a little and I am making sure to eat well. Need a long break.
@OrangeYouGlad68
Hi there!
Sorry for your toe, hopefully it does not hurt that much?
Yes, me time is always possible also when there is a change in routine. Best wishes!
@OrangeYouGlad68 sorry for your broken toe. Wishing you the best outcome.
@OrangeYouGlad68
Orange, I hope you can take that break, you deserve it. Hope your toe heals fast. 
@OrangeYouGlad68
Dear Orange, please do not feel you are alone. I live in chronic stress...toxic job, two grown but needy children, a dog with skin problems and a husband 12- years younger than me with whom I cannot talk.
Looking everyday for that release of tension. But, all my toes are good, so there's that.
Wishing you a speedy recovery <3
i had a lovely day yesterday~ went on a trip out of town with one cousin to visit another... these are the types of things i never get to do anymore, but this cousin who moved here to her parent's home town has been very kind to me... and the cousins we went to visit are the nicest people~! <3 <3 <3
@GusteeMoon123
Gustee, I am so happy for you, spending time with people you feel well with is awesome. Wish you many more of these days :)
What are you going to do during this weekend?
This weekend is just chores. Saturday I worked some in the yard. Today I did grocery runs, one for me and one for my disabled friend.
Do you have a plan for the new week you want to better organize ?
Yes. GF is coming back Tuesday, wants me to spend Wednesday night with her. I have Thursday off, but I have flooring people coming at 9:30 AM, and that could get difficult as we tend to get up rather late. Have to find some way to do that and get back home in time.
Hi everyone. Have a good week.
@faithlove1111
Hey faith, you too 
Weekends can be a horror for me. These are times when the overthinking starts and I get self absorbed!
@Silverfoxwrites
We all need a rest and for most of us that's what the weekend is for. You are entitled as anyone else on a good time. You Deserve It.
Scheduling fun or simply relaxing activities can be very helpful, what about making a plan for the coming weekend?
@Silverfoxwrites the problem I have on weekends is when I have no scheduled activities. A routine helps me during the week.
@soulsings
I have that problem too soul, thinking of making a pleasure to-do-list for the weekends 
@amiablePeace77 nice idea!
@soulsings
thanks Soul :)
