The weekend was supposed to be for resting.

Instead, there were errands, laundry, yard work, grocery shopping, family obligations, house projects, social commitments, and approximately fourteen things you didn't have time to deal with during the week.

Sunday evening arrives and somehow you're more tired than you were on Friday.

Excellent work, everyone.

The Division of Weekend Recovery is for anyone who keeps waiting for those mythical two days of rest they've heard so much about. You had plans to relax. Maybe sleep in. Possibly sit down long enough to forget what needed to be done next.

Your request has been reviewed.

Denied.

Wear it for weekend errands, Saturday projects, Sunday morning coffee, Monday survival, family gatherings, or while staring at the clock wondering how it's already Sunday night when you haven't recovered from last week yet.

It also makes a funny gift for coworkers, parents, homeowners, weekend warriors, overworked friends, and anyone whose weekends have somehow become an unpaid second shift.

The Division understands your need for rest and appreciates your request.

Unfortunately, recovery has been denied until further notice.
