Unfortunately. I have so much going on during the week that I end up working on weekends. Since I live alone with my dog, it's the one time when I don't get interruptions. | | |
Weekend or not, immaterial | Apr 21, 2018 |
If you're not constrained by having a partner who works a five-day week or children with a five-day school week, one of the advantages of freelance work is that you can work any time you like and do other things when free of work. | | |
A combination | Apr 21, 2018 |
Sometimes I take weekends off, sometimes I don’t, it all depends on the amount of work I have and on the deadline. If I have no work at all and the weather is not good, I might complete some procrastinated domestic chores (ironing, for instance), but right now, and until the middle of May, I’m on a period with no weekends off in sight and long hours every day as I’m editing a very long e-course and at the same time trying to keep all my other regular clients happy… | |

Sometimes I get a small translation or proofreading job on Friday that is due on Monday. I send out invoices. Weather permitting I shop for groceries. These things usually fill my Saturday. On Sunday I relax and read and the highlight of my weekend is talking to my children by phone or via Skype. | | |
Depends on the time of year | Apr 21, 2018 |
Over the winter when it is gloomy outside I often take on some additional work over the weekend to earn a little extra. In contrast during the summer months I like to take advantage of the better weather and travel as much as possible. As I am disabled, I am in the fortunate position of qualifying for a travel pass that lets me travel anywhere within my own country for free, although today I ventured a little further afield by travelling "abroad" within the UK and had to pay for it. | |

I have no way out. I work, I try, I cry... I am faithful in love. I work hard. I research a lot. But people prefer white skinned, catholic and rich people. I am lost and I cry. | | |
What is a weekend? I rest when I don't have work. It could be a weekend, or a Wednesday, or a Friday... | | |
