Evening all,
After a crazy week at work, I have finally got a chance to enjoy a small whiskey, some music and read some of the posts in the community.
How has everyoneās week been, anyone else looking forward to the weekend?

Howdy Michael,
The weeks, they are too long! The weekends too short! I havenāt had my nip of whiskey just yet, but I believe I will have a little snort after dinner this evening. Looking forward to relaxing on the couch with guitar in lap, strum a few chords with my eyes closed and just chill.
That will last for all of 30 seconds before my wife throws a pillow at me and yells āknock it off!!ā

Every week! 
All good hear, missus finally got what she asked for and I bought her electric drums kit and it comes early next week! On the outside I am like yeaah fine have it give it a go, and inside I am like a little puppy getting his evening bowl as I know I will probably take it over from her 
Hope you enjoy your whiskey

If you can get away without the pillow then it sounds like a perfect evening! Have a really great weekend.
That sounds like a plan. One of my close friends plays the drums. Watching him play and seeing how lost in the music he becomes was part of the inspiration for me to stop saying āIād like to play the guitarā and actually picking a guitar up. Have a great weekend.
I hope you have a great weekend. +7 sounds considerably better than -26c. Thatās just crazy. The coldest I have experienced was about -17 when I lived in N.Ireland, back in 2010.
Have a great weekend with the guitar. The first week back after the holidays is always a drag.

@adi_mrok time to confess, did you buy it for her or for you? I love the puppy analogy 
So if you push her off her new drum kit, what will you buy her to compensate?

Oh Iāll just give her one of my guitars to keep her mind busy, itās a win win (at least in my mind)!

WIPE-OUT!
I forgot to drink my 
because I was too busy playing my on the 
! My wife was tired after a long week, so she went upstairs to 
and left me to my own devices, so no pillows flying at me.
So here is a carrot for youā¦After ditching the day job some 12 years ago, I hardly can tell one day from another. The āweekendā is just a concept and everyday is a good day for guitar!

I here you brother, every day could be Friday since I jacked in the rat race but āworkā that needs doing is done anytime, including Saturday or Sunday.
But I also spent all my 38 years of working life doing shiftwork (17 to 55), 24x7x366. So a weekend could be Tues to Thurs or Sun to Mon and anything in between. When we went to near 2 on 2 off, which more 13 hr 2 days 2 nights 2 off or 4 days 4 off 4 nights 4 off depending on shift overlaps any down time was seen as bliss regardless of its label. And on the 
days, so was a scotch n coke at 10 am after 4 consecutive shifts stacked high with mega !! Boy do I miss it, yeah like ahem Now the only I have to deal with is that from my chickens.

Iāve done a lot of that kind of shift work, too. Used to do rotating shifts where every 4th shift we would change from day shift to night shift. Mostly 12 hour shifts, 3 days a week, which sounds nice with 4 days off, but of course always needing to pick up as many extra shifts as possible. That turnaround from day to night every month was brutal. Bad for physical and mental health. Saw and did a lot of weird stuff in the middle of the night though!
Iām with @firstrazor - probably another 10 years to go. BUT, itās regular 9-to-5 salaried stuff these days, so not so bad.

Itās funny how different the passage of 10 ālife yearsā is from the passage of 10 āwork yearsā!
