To deliberately plan a really boring weekend

This weekend

It’s freezing, we’re tired. I’ve done the big shop today, lots of slow cooker foods and curry planned. We’ve got lots of wood for the fire, I may just stay in pjs all weekend and only leave to walk the dog in the woods nearby.
Dd has made a den that’s taking up half the house and her neighbour pals will be in and out most of the weekend
Anyone love a very lazy weekend or would you be bored?

Weekend plans for a cold January weekend?

Sounds lovely OP - I always think this time of year it's natural for us to hibernate a bit.
I plan on doing feck all this weekend!

Sounds perfect. I’m gonna do the same

Not unreasonable at all. My son asked if we were doing anything this weekend and I said, 'enjoying the mortgage'. Nothing like quality time in your own space with your immediate family.

I wish. Have just started feeling coldy but have to go to a 50th birthday party with an overnight stay tomorrow. Am exhausted and would like to hibernate in an ideal world,

Sounds lovely. Older DC have only started school this year and it's knackering them so every weekend we have at least one cosy day in.

Most weekends my day revolves around walking the dog and reading. I've never considered it boring!

I have a quiet one planned. I am in the middle of a horrendously complex work project that I'm not getting the technical support I need on, and next weekend will be busier so I'm carving out the mental space.

Have booked a massage at place round the corner on Sunday because I've earned it.

Sounds like the perfect weekend. I'll go to Yoga tomorrow morning but apart from that mine will be very similar.
