To ask what you do on Sundays?

[MovieQueen12]

I am really starting to dislike them.
I'm single with no kids and not much in the way of family. The few friends I have are all busy with family stuff.
Aibu to ask what you do on Sundays? They are always sort of tainted by the thought of Mondays at work too....

Up at 9 am - coffee then at midday start ebay photography and listing - finish at 5pm. Then bath followed by doing some housework before bed at 11.30pm - midnight ish

I’m likely to do the weekly shopping, and may do the laundry in the evening (communal laundry, it’s difficult to get in during the week). Saturday and Sunday are the only days when there aren’t some sort of appointments to attend. If I haven’t had shopping to do I might go for a walk, weather permitting. Otherwise it’s just stay in, read and knit.

I tend to click and collect my food shop on Sundays.
Have a lazy brunch at home, radio on, catch up on the news or go out for brunch with friends.
Go for a walk.

Do some gardening or diy.
Do some work for work.
Do some ironing.
Watch tv/read.
Sometimes I’ll have a nap, other times an early night.
Sometimes I’ll do a face/foot/hand/body/hair mask.

Today is Mother’s Day so we visited my mother and other family nearby then came home and I made pizza, now we’re doing our own thing relaxing. Ds upstairs playing new game I think, dh watching tv in the study, and I’m on the sofa with my iPad. It’s been a long day, with driving and visiting family, and a busy Saturday yesterday full of driving doing a bunch of errands and taking Ds to meet his friends.

Usually we go to church in the morning, then I make lunch. A walk in the afternoon or a book and nap, make dinner, watch movie together.

Op, don’t get exasperated with your friends with children. They probably would love to see you, they’re just drained from doing all the things involved with being in charge of little humans and they’re tired. They just want to sit on the sofa if they get any free time. And the truth is that families don’t always do everything together. Oftentimes everyone does their own thing in order to have unstructured downtime on the weekends.

Church (meaningful, modern and lively one). Sunday roast. Walk. Chill.

Single and usually do what I call a reset day
So cleaning/changing bedding/house jobs
Food shop/batch cooking/meal planning
Long bath/hair treatment/nails
Watch a bit of Netflix
Exercise

Just means I feel like I'm starting the week with a clean house, food, shaved legs and ready for Monday. I actually enjoy it now to sit down on a Sunday night all fresh and everything done

I absolutely love Sundays on my own.
This morning I woke up, had a shower then took my coffee and the dog to a nearby park. Knackered the said dog, oiled my bike, went for a ride for about an hour . Came home buzzing. Made some lunch, sat down and planned the week ahead: gym classes, menu for the week, shopping list etc. Read the book club book, had a nap. Took the dog for a 5k run, went for a swim and sauna (minus the dog). Ate Friday’s leftovers. Texted a group of friends and arranged a walk for next weekend. Finished Bridgeton and the rest of the snacks I had for Eurovision last night.

I am usually too tired to do anything, due to having chronic fatigue syndrome. I used to love going on a long run on Sunday mornings and would cook a nice lunch afterwards and the chill with the newspapers.

Try a walking club, big long Sunday walk with a bunch of people usually with a bit of lunch.

Walk dogs, bike ride or run with friend (and dogs sometimes come running too),

Pottering about, internet browsing, cooking, helping kids with homework or doing lego, doing laundry. Watching sport on TV.

Bliss

DH has been nights all weekend so just me and 2 DCs.

Today we woke up at 8(a rare sleep in as DS2 is normally up at 5am), a lazy breakfast watching Drag Race, lots of tea, playing with DS2, homework with DS1, a movie lunchtime with kids, laundry, de cluttering, cleaning, cooking DH food before he went to work again, singing and playing with DS and another movie! 🍿 Bathed both kids then finally relaxed a bit 😝

Lie in, nice breakfast and coffee, go for a jog or a walk, Sunday paper, sometimes I'll go to a carboot sale, go out for Sunday lunch if anyone is free or wants to go with me, read a book, bath, sometimes I'll watch a film in bed...

We go to the gym. Have brunch, play badminton and then have a swim. Later on we sometimes take a friend's dog out for a nice walk or just chill at home. Then after dinner prepare everything for the week ahead.

Plan lessons and make resources.

Today we went out for a roast, did some housework, I had a bath and did manicure/pedicure, bit of yoga, then I made scrambled eggs for tea. Later I did some work, and DP hoovered and mopped. Meal plan for the week.

I’m often on my own because DP works abroad a lot. I get up and feed the cat then we go back to bed together and she sleeps on my feet while I scroll TikTok. I’ll either meet a friend for lunch or make myself a bacon sandwich, potter around doing bits and pieces round the house, long bath, chat with friends on WA, catch up on YouTube videos, sort myself out for the week ahead, then an easy (M&S ready meal usually) dinner.

I'm single, no kids - church takes up a big chunk of my Sundays, usually have lunch there, then I might meet up with family, go for a walk, take a book to my favourite coffee shop.

I work and go for a pint afterwards.

Sunday is often my favourite day. Slept until 9, got up and prepped Sunday lunch, tidied up, did a gym class. Dh took dc to shops. Finished food. Parents came at 4pm , had food and a few drinks. Took dog for walk on beach. Dc to bed then G&t and watched tv.

I work most Saturdays aadly

Single with no kids and you hate Sundays 😂

I mean they must be terrible! Lie in, make yourself a nice brekkie while listening to you own music of your own choice rather than shitty disney stuff while the kids tear round your feet fighting over who gets the first pancake while your coffee goes cold.
Maybe afterwards go out and do something for yourself (for me it would be a morning fishing or maybe a run, or read a nice book.
Sunday lunch at a nice country pub, walk the dogs, quick and easy dinner in the evening and catch up with whatever I'm watching on netflix with a glass of wine.

I suppose what I am saying is learn to enjoy what you have because in a few years your reality may look very different. That too will have its positives and you'll enjoy them, however you'll still miss those bits of your old life and will wish you appreciated them when you had them.

For instance. Last Sunday was DD's birthday party. I was in a horrid bowling alley with loud music, screaming kids and pizza.
While I was in that particular hell, a friend texts me asking what was the name of that great pub by the river we'd been to the other week. Apparently he's been fishing all morning and thinks he'll stop in on his way home.

Absolute. fucking. bastard! 😂

I work. For extra money.

I hate Sundays, because I usually spend half of it ironing the weeks washing that I have washed and dried Friday night/Saturday morning and I HATE ironing...also preparing and cooking a Sunday dinner, usually have stripped beds so they need remaking. I'm also a uni student so tend to spend the evening doing any pre work for the lectures I have that week.

It really isn't a rest day for me, as a parent and as a student.

It depends on how lazy I'm feeling.
Sometimes I'll lay in bed scrolling away then have a soak in the bath, have a bite to eat and then laze around on the sofa.
Other times I'll be up and do some odd jobs or go for a drive etc.
Kids are grown up and married themselves and husband works abroad, so there's only myself to please.

Single with no kids and you hate Sundays 😂

Don't be such an insensitive prat. The OP is lonely and doesn't see an end to it. If the single life was so blissful for you, why did you give it up?

Maybe go along to a car boot sale if a nice day maybe just me but I love a potter around one, go and see a nice film at the cinema . I've got kids and Sundays can be boring . I work shifts so don't do a mon-fro job so often work the weekend .
