Is Friday a good day off?
Working on Sundays I have found that by the time I get to Friday, my day off, I feel pretty whacked. Today that is exactly what I feel, as though I have been hit over the head with a cricket bat! I have lawn mowing and various other jobs to do.
So, will my day off exhaust me?
Thursday is a completion day...I need to finish everything or I am caught with mt pants down (as it were) on Sunday, and I often find that Saturday is my busiest day particularly trying to catch up with people who aren't available during the week.
Sunday is hectic in a curious sort of way and I come home from morning church usually pretty drained, even if rather enlivened. Although night church has almost died out, and we say it is because people don't come out any more...my real suspicion is that it doesn't happen because clergy are too tired to deal with it. {When I was a boy Evensong was as popular a service as the morning}.
Monday I habitually feel energised and so fly at my activities in a way I sometimes regret. Tuesday and Wednesday are long days; beginning with driving S to school for choir and orchestra and quite often with night meetings. So we get back to Thursday again.
And I am sitting here on Friday, my day off typing into my weblog!!!
The question is not whether Friday is a good day off...but like the previous entry (here) maybe this could be solved by creating an extra day in the week!!l
