Weekday evenings

Yep, I’m the same boat. It just feels like one long day. Although I’m a massive football fan and thanks to the wonders of modern tv, there’s usually some football on somewhere to help the evening hours pass a little faster.

Its good if you have something at least to concentrate on, I tend to get stuck into some CSS on a daily basis, doing literally nothing would make me more broken than I already am lol.
 
To flip the question round a bit, what would people actually like to do on weekday evenings?

I probably don't do much different on a weekday evening than I would on a weekend - just not as much due to less time.

I'd like to sit in a dark room where I can't hear ****
 
I believe in taking care of myself, and a balanced diet and a rigorous exercise routine. In the evening, if my face is a little puffy, I'll put on an ice pack while doing my stomach crunches. I can do a thousand now. After I remove the ice pack, I use a deep pore cleanser lotion. In the shower, I use a water activated gel cleanser. Then a honey almond body scrub. And on the face, an exfoliating gel scrub. Then apply an herb mint facial mask, which I leave on for 10 minutes while I prepare the rest of my routine. I always use an aftershave lotion with little or no alcohol, because alcohol dries your face out and makes you look older. Then moisturizer, then an anti-aging eye balm followed by a final moisturizing protective lotion.

What are your thoughts on Phil Collins and the works of Genesis?
 
Does anyone actually enjoy having kids? These threads paint the picture of not!

I have too much to do.

Once a week will have friends round (or go to theirs) for boardgame night
Gym
Computer games
Time with gf (games /TV series or just chatting)
Cooking
Few chores if I have to
Cinema (rarely as not much is ever worth watching)

Tonight I am 3d printing.

Not enough hours in the week!
 
Work, mostly. I'm at work 50-60 hours a week and never leave before 2130, so I don't have evenings. I also work different days each week, so I don't have weekdays and weekends.

When I get home, I shower, eat and wish I could sleep straight away so I could have enough sleep before I need to get up again. Winding down time would be a nice luxury.

With what time I have, I read books, play games and watch whatever interests me on YouTube. I doubt if I'll ever run out of any of those things, although old age might make gaming impossible at some point.
 
Sit in a darkened room in silence, completely motionless, just waiting for work the next day.

Jeez, you do lead an exciting life, don’t you?
Personally, having retired in 2012, after a few months of watching stuff I’d recorded from TV, catching up on reading, and realising that my waist was growing gradually larger, I started to walk a circuit of Southwark Park, no matter what the weather.
Then I branched out, and did half a circuit of the park, then carried on to Bermondsey station, got on the Jubilee Line, took a train to Waterloo, then walked slowly home, pausing at Borough Market for a glass of wine, and a loaf of sour dough bread and a bag of olives to take home.
Depending how I felt, I’d extend this to Westminster before walking home, then Green Park, one day I went nuts, and went for Swiss Cottage, but I didn’t want to kill myself, so I got off at St. John’s Wood, walked back through Regents Park, then ambled down Baker Street, window shopping, stopping here and there for a glass of Viognier.
Through Mayfair, across Piccadilly, down St. James St., into Green Park, out the other side to Birdcage Walk, thence to Parliament Sq., over Westminster Bridge, before giving up, and grabbing a 381 bus home.
 
In the evenings I'll play video games, go to the gym, cook, train my dogs, go out for a walk, watch YouTube. I rarely watch TV. I finish work by 2pm usually so gives me lots of time to do stuff
 
Don't usually do too much in the evenings, as I go to bed fairly early these days.

I usually just come home, and depending on the night, will go to Taekwondo or homework with one of the kids. When the kids are in bed, it's usually a mix between watching some TV shows with the wife, or gaming... usually a bit of both. Bed at 22:30 at the latest :p
 
just in the middle of my 4 off ,will be doing three 12 hour shifts 6am to 6 pm thu fri sat ,tbh when i come home its eat .laptop amd easy watching tv , then bed maybe 10pm
if i was doing 5 days would feel im wasting my life but i can do all my surfing and walking amd beach slobbing on my time off
theres guys on my shift who will do overtime to make it a 6 day shift just to pay for nice car , that isnt living to me
 
Cook dinner, watch a series were following.

I'll sometimes go upstairs and play the comp.

I go out one day a week and play Pool at the pub in the league with other pubs.

Wife plays flute in a band and does that one night a week

Other than that not a lot :p

Get in from work, change and then head to the gym, get back from the gym and cook myself some food and then the rest of the evening is just chilling and watching TV or playing PS4
 
Gym, dinner, tv, internet, videogames, sexytimes. Only so much one can do in a 4 hour window.
 
This is what i do pretty much daily

Gym if i don't go at lunch or if i feel that i have more to do
Cooking/eating dinner for myself and the missus
Bit of netflix
Go to the same pub and see the same wonderful people, likely meet one or two new ones (No beer for me Sunday-Thursday)

Maybe play some games of the whatsapp game club group calls upon me
 
I always feel I don't have enough days of the week!

Monday - shopping night.
Tuesday - GF and her daughter come for dinner
Wednesday - racing RC cars
Thursday - Funny Handshakes (except during summer recess)
Friday - chill with GF
Saturday - do something with GF
Sunday - do something with kids/race RC/clean 1:1 car/ build model railway

In between all that I get an hour every other night between 9 and 10 to play video games, jump into bed at 10 to watch TV for an hour.

Cook, clean and raise my 16yr and 5yr daughter (widower), run family IFA practice which isn't always a 9-5 job.

Used to go to gym every Tuesday and Thursday morning but haven't been as regular as I was since damaging my elbow 2 months ago. Even picking up a cup of tea hurts like hell and I'm rubbish at sticking with cardio.
 
monday to saturday snooker and a few beers after work, home make tea see wife and kids sort out all that needs to be done.
bed and watch a film.
