Writer’s Workshop: You Can Just Imagine It
A 3 day weekend is something which we just experienced last week. Saturday was Vesak Day and in lieu of a holiday falling on a Saturday schools were given the Monday off. The kids were ecstatic to have a day off school and time off to play.
We brought them to the Singapore science centre and to play bowling. Monkey boy is doing much better in bowling now.
Just look at his score below.
If cash wasn’t an issue I would have like to have spend that 3 day weekend a bit differently. We would have checked into a 6 star hotel at Sentosa. A suite would be good. The presidential suite or a private villa would be certainly ideal. Private swimming pool, butler and maid service couple with baby sitting would be superb!!. The kids can enjoy themselves swimming while being supervised while I can indulge myself in some spa treatment.
If the room came with gaming consoles or other kids games it would be great. The kids could entertain themselves and give me some “time off” which I need.
We would have VIP passes to the universal studios so that we could get in easily and by pass all the queuing that we need to do before trying out the rides. Dinner at the beach or at getting the top chef from one of the fine dinning restaurants to cook for us in the suite kitchen would certainly make my day. I do love dining out but dining in comfort and without having to worry about the kids running off or making messes during dinner is more of a concern to me. I’ll be able to get both- good food and a worry free dinner.
How would your ideal 3 day weekend be like?
Do you think you will be having it soon?

That sounds like a fun weekend. I actually have a four day weekend coming up soon and will be spending it with my husband. We are celebrating our tenth anniversary. We won’t be doing anything grand or exciting, just spending time together which is something we don’t get to do as often as we like.

Oh to have a weekend like that! But at least your little one is becoming quite the bowler! I’m not sure I have every broken 100. Kind of sad, I know.

Rest, relaxation, and lots of fun! Our next 3-day weekend will be Memorial weekend at the end of the month, but it’s gonna be a wild one with DS’s graduation. I doubt there will be much R&R that weekend.
Yesterday. Yesteryear. What I wouldn’t give for one more yesterday again!

hanging out with friends, relax, barecue, eating seafood, laying on the beach in warm weather…not cold.
yes, we will have memorial day on 5/28 – which is a three day weekend. 🙂

Hi Dominique ~~ My ideal three day weekend would be just like the one you would like to have. 🙂
Being retired, every three days are a three-day-weekend just that they all aren’t so good.
I like being on cruises, I think they are like going to assisted living only having chocolate on your pillow every night. Well, the music, entertainment, and food might be better on the cruise.

Great post. I just had a one month weekend. Now I need a three day weekend to recover from it..heehee. Hmm…my perfect 3 day weekend would be kicking back on the deck, looking out at the new spring growth and watching someone else do the heaps of laundry, cleaning, etc. 🙂 Have a great week!

I’ve not thought of this before…
I would like to go dancing all those nights. I love dancing.
I hope there’s a rainy day where I get to just play in the rain with the kids.
And there should be a day when all we do is lay on the earth and just be. Do nothing, just eat, sleep and just be.
So simple but so full of what I want.
Happy Friday!

That would be a lovely weekend, for sure! I only did one of those things–I had a VIP tour at our local Universal Studios! It was awesome! We had our own private tram tour.

Awwww…six star! Now THAT would be sweet!
My three day weekend would involve the ocean, rocky beaches and a tiny little cottage to share with my husband!
Thanks for a fun link to Alphabe-Thursday’s letter “Y”.
