In Praise of Long Weekends

It’s amazing how a three day weekend can leave one feeling so refreshed.  So a FOUR day weekend is about twice the refreshment, wouldn’t you say?

I’ve never supported the argument that if we had a three day weekend all the time we’d complain that we needed a four day weekend, and so forth.  I think that the joy of the extended weekend is that either Friday arrives that much quicker, or Thursday becomes Friday!

So imagine we switched over to a four day work week.  How would you savor that extra day off?  I think I’d then be able to devote one whole day to working around the house, instead of squeezing it among all the other things I do over the weekend.  Of course, I say that now, but there’s just as likely a chance that I would spend those extra hours socializing as much as I do now!
