The Sunday night blues are here

I've been really struggling with the weekends recently. It feels like every weekend I have this frenzied rush to try and fit everything in to try and make up for a stressful week of work, and yet it always feel disappointing.

This weekend I've been shopping, been social, had a nice relaxing coffee in a coffee shop, been for a long walk in nature, deep cleaned, lit candles and watched a cosy Christmas film, had a nice roast dinner and had my haircut and had a pamper.

It still doesn't feel enough. I still feel empty and anxious and that I've not had a proper/'good enough' weekend. Dreading work tomorrow.

Why are you dreading work tomorrow?

Been there and just so thankful for a very extended maternity leave while I work out what to do next. I knew it was time for a change when the feeling crept in on Saturday evenings…

What would a “good enough” weekend look like?
Whose voice is in your head saying what good enough looks like?

Yep. Went to do a bit of work earlier to get organised for tomorrow and my laptop won’t start. So it will be a great start to the week tomorrow!

I would suggest it’s not the weekend that is the issue here but your job?
