Don’t get me wrong, I’m glad I don’t have to go to work for a few days. But I don’t quite get the same excitement for the weekend that I used to. I hope that you do! If so, how do you cultivate that feeling?
Nah, I have kids, there are no weekends
Yes. It’s a shorter work day.
Relief, not excitement
When you do this long enough, not having to work for a few days is all the reward you need to make Friday exciting.
Hello, fellow oldhead!
You gotta plan stuff on your weekends. Give yourself something to look forward to.

More of a happy it’s Saturday feeling.
The firm I work for has flex scheduling, so I get a half-day every Friday. (Could be a 4-10 if I wanted, but I don’t want to do a 4-10)
I get all my chores done by 3PM on Fridays and then the entire weekend is my oyster.
It’s glorious.
I work two jobs and have no days off but Friday is the start of not having to drive the next morning so yeah, in a way.
I used to get the Saturday equivalent, but with my anhedonia, even lounging feels like a chore.
My schedule usually changes every few months and it’s happened often enough now that any day feels like Friday if I don’t have to work the day after.
No, because after a Friday half the time comes the dreaded 13 hour shift which sucks my energy enough to not be able to do anything on Sunday.
Healthcare is a bitch sometimes.
it’s more like relief, I get home and I instantly drop into bed all comfy knowing I’ll be snoozing late tomorrow.
Yes, but for us our “Friday” is actually Tuesday.
We cultivate it by getting our asses kicked all weekend!
