This question makes me a bit sad because I'm working all weekend! Then again, my work is writing, sitting in cafes, agonizing over imaginary characters and their lives...which is what I love to do, so it's okay.

All that said, I'm going to take some time out to go to Sephora and smell some new fragrances :-)

I had my hairline read, my hair colored and then cut by a new stylist who specializes in zen and the art of curly hair I've taken care of lots of Christmas shopping already and will do some more tomorrow. I'll also volunteer selling Junior League cookbooks tomorrow morning to help raise money to support the thirteen projects that we fund in our community. My three hours tomorrow helps us make the money that facilitates us creating positive change in the lives of thousands of families in Collin County, Texas!

You're so lucky. I would love to have friends like that.

Wine tasting at a local vineyard--got a free coupon for it at the grocery store.
Hitting the gym for swimming in the indoor pool.
Creating a bulletin board in my bedroom with photos, quotes, and other scraps that mean something to me in my quest for identity.
Working a 12-hour shift at the hospital on Sunday--guess that's not play, really!

Last weekend was Science World with my daughter. She's a little too young for it, so this weekend's challenge is to find something interactive but where the things to play with are about a foot closer to the ground!

To kick it off, my husband surprised me by hiring a cleaning service to clean my house today!!! How GREAT was it to come home from work to a clean house! NOW I can enjoy a weekend of being hockey and football mom AND.......meeting my honey in the hot-tub when the kids are in bed!

I have never heard of a "Mud Run" sounds like my kind of fun!
Go girl go!

I've had a business idea rattling around in the back of my head for a couple of months, and I just saw a mention of a similar idea in the NY Times, so this weekend I may be playing "start a business."

I'm heading off to Mexico this weekend for some fun in the sun! I. Can't. Wait.

Although, I have to admit Rick's farm style weekend sounds great too. And, Danielle's wildly creative day...not sure about the clean up part of that idea though...

Thank you for reminding me of the importance of play.
I must work this weekend, but I will try to remember to play as well.

I'm going to enjoy the good company of friends and cheer on my 5 year old son at his soccer game. I'm also going to take out my water colors and find something blooming in the back yard to paint.

I'm planning on surfing as much as possible and dancing the 5 rhythms on Sunday morn..... my last weekend on Maui before heading back to Canada. It's all totally surreal here, the community that i've fallen in love with, the dance, the lifestyle, Maui's intoxicating natural beauty.... the ocean..... ahhhhhhh...... the ocean..... where i feel my most at peace. Soaking in the aloha spirit, containing it in my heart and bringing it back for others to feel!! Can you feel it????

Being until recently an alternative East-Vancouverite, I'd recommend dinner at Havana (Cuban, great heated sidewalk seating area) and a stroll along Commercial Drive, ending at Dolce Amor for the best gelato in town. You'll probably be drawn into some live music somewhere along there too.

LOL , Danielle! We lived in Ontario for 50 years and never heard of such a thing (of course, we were always in cities).

It's our friends here in Nova Scotia who introduced us to wood parties. I guess people everywhere like beer!

Thanks Emily-Sarah - we will have a marvelous time, I know. It's very satisfying to work together, whether the project is yours or theirs.
