Do we feel Fridays have become more important since lockdown is easing?
Friday denotes the weekend and family/friends social time. Time to enjoy the little things we took for granted before the pandemic...

"And its apparently school summer hols now too"
It is and how I've been looking forward to them. I've worked throughout the pandemic and feel exhausted.

No, in a weird way I don't think they are as important. Maybe when lockdown lifts/if it does and things begin to go back to how they were before they might do, until then the weekend? It's not such a weekend. |

You sound aggrieved because you work weekends. Do you not enjoy your work? |

I totally agree! A good ‘let you’re hair down’ session would be most welcome |

I take my hat off to people with kids and homeschooling, working..just juggling life. I'm not surprised you're exhausted.
I only helped homeschool my grandson for the shortest of time but It certainly had it's challenges! |

It’s ok to have a moan and you obviously have a really tough job. Kudos to you! but please don’t take it out in your posts ... I wasn’t aware of your circumstances
Hope you manage to get a holiday x |

No
I still denote Fridays as the start of the weekend.
Both of us being self employed means we often work odd hours and weekends too but Fridays is relaxed, Saturdays I go to more effort to make a meal and get dressed up, since theres no going out.
So yes

Yep Friday is inbred in me I guess as something to look forward to but I suppose it’s a different world now what with work patterns and the like one day is pretty much the same as any other
But Sunday should always be the day of rest but even then it’s not that simple these days |

"Weekends are shit.
You sound as if you’ve had a tough time too recently "
Yes but it won't ever get better. Sorry, I didn't mean to shit on your thread. X
I think you're right OP,
people are appreciating family and friends more than they did before lockdown. I'm actually really mushy and I love that such good has come out of all this. People have been pulling together and it's great.  |

"Well, I have been working from home since day 1 of lockdown, and I can say it hasn't been easy! So I really value my weekends even more so now. "
Same here! Work and home life roll into one so weekends are precious - whatever day(s) you’re weekend happens to be |

"It's all one blurr, I miss traveling....   "
Yep I miss that too! although it’s been a pleasure to work from home and a more comfortable pace. An interval in my career that is unlikely to be repeated |

Ah Sundays were always to catch up with my kids, their partners and my grandkids.
A big pot of stewed jamaican chicken and sweetcorn on the go. And a pot of good basmati rice. Enough food for all. Listening to laughter and dicussions.
That's about the most content I feel with my brood around me. |
