Weekends Are Made For??

We have an ongoing argument in this household, well maybe argument is too strong a word.  Let's call it a disagreement.  Anyway, we have a weekly disagreement here about what to do on the weekend.  Chores around the house, play, or both?

Some want to catch up on the things that need to be done around the house, then rest.  There's a certain peace of mind during the week if those chores are done.  I mean who would want to come home and see that laundry needs to be done or the grass needs to be cut.

Some think that work should be done on Saturday so that absolutely nothing is done on Sundays!  Now, let's be for real- we do have to eat on Sundays!  Someone is cooking that!  Also, it's just not gonna happen.  Come on, there's always something to do on the weekends.  Sometimes Saturday is filled and Sunday is the only day to do work.

Some think the entire weekend is for the couch.  You nap on the couch.  You watch tv, movies, veg on the computer... all while sitting on the couch for two days.  Personally, this is my least favorite viewpoint.  This one leads to the most arguments, oops, I mean disagreements.

So, how does it work at your house?  Do you have a schedule for weekends or just wing it?  Have you found a way to make this work in your house?
