Hi there champs and champette's, we're heading into the very first weekend of the new year and, after a week back at work, I'm looking forward to it. I travelled a bit, work travel, and got a lot done although it was a shock to the system after some time off in the festive/new year period. It's ok though - I just had to cowboy the fuck up and just get it done along with anyone else who had to go back to work this week...were you one of those?

If you'd like to get involved with the #weekend-engagement topics as hosted in the WEEKEND EXPERIENCES community then read below, and I hope you all have a great weekend.

Fortunately for me I only start work on the 15th of January 🤣 Although I'm still enjoying my holiday I do already know how much the agony will be to go back to work! But as you say... cowboy the fuck up!

You'll get it done, you've got no voice but...it'll hurt! 😭

All the best with that, however the most important thing is to enjoy the time you have before you go back! 😊

Oh for sure! For sure! That is why I decided on such a long stay! When I head back I want to be sick of this place! But a good kind of sick if that makes sense!🤣

Sick in a good way...I actually get it.

Happy firts weekend engagement of this great year 2024, it's a privilege to continue being present in the weekend experience community, Galen.

Happy weekend, I hope your week has been good and your weekend is better.

Well, have a great first weekend of this year.

I will be there soon with my entry 😀

Have a good weekend also, I hope you've got something enjoyable planned.

Nah man. My finals are ahead and they won't let me plan anything but study hard.

And also you people have smashed us the test series 😭. Well, see you next time🙂

Lol...yep you lot aren't doing very well over here in the current Test Match...oh well, maybe next time.

I guess you're looking forward to the weekend to rest, the return to work after days off.... is hard, it always is! I'm sure you've handled it well.

In my case it's been a pretty busy week, hopefully I'll have time to breathe at the weekend haha.

And I already have a theme picked out, as I'm going somewhere tomorrow! But I'm not going to tell you, surprise!

Have a great weekend Galen, have a good rest!

I have some things of a serious nature that eventuated during the week and it's not been a very good one...things that continue now. Just another thing to deal with I guess. So yeah, I am looking forward to some rest this weekend.

Have a good weekend.

The same thing has happened to me... my aunt's health issues... it's not going well... so... to follow the path. I have to take care of myself. Everything will be fine Galen, rest this weekend.

There are lots of fun things to talk about this weekend, see you in my entry, brother😊

I'm glad you like the topics.

Have a great weekend! 😋

Beauty and I would add happiness is a very fragile gift. It certainly needs to be nurtured and cultivated daily. ....

I agree.

I hope you have a nice weekend ahead. 😊

Weekend of sharing and taking advantage of the last week of vacation... Greetings!

Lol!

Ha, ha, ha. I loved that second topic. Never been in a bar, but let's see how it goes.

I think it leaves plenty of room for some fun posts.. let's see where people's creativity leads huh?

That's always the bet on the initiative! 😁

I'm glad you have some fun at new year eve. Real happy to read that! I've just read this, right now... What a shame... I will get into this topics before write anything here. All the best for you, always, my lovely friend.

All the best to you for the weekend alo, and I hope your first week of 2924 has been a good one.

It has been a bit quiet but it will be better, I'm sure. Hope yours will be impressive. I'm sure you deserve it.

As far as I remember I have only been to one wedding. That was wedding of my parents godson. I gifted him and his wife one of my pieces. I think that that was quite unusual gift. But that is all I have to say about this topic so it is not worth making a post.

That seems a unique gift, nice work.

Good morning my friend, our new challenge has finally arrived. I'm glad to know we have options. I have a question, can we participate in this event with more than one post or just one? I asked because this is the busiest weekend in my city. I don't know if my writing will live up to the public's expectations, but let's go. My post: https://peakd.com/hive-168869/@josiva/vaquejada-my-first-weekend-of-2024

I won't make another post, but you can't imagine the movement in the city: Santos Reis festival, vaquejada, auctions and religious events. Practically everything at the same time.

You can do more than one if you like, but on different days, not all on the same day.

Thank you for the informations.

Hello I leave you my delivery I hope you like it and is valid for this beautiful challenge. I talk about my special wedding weekend and the delicious gift my cousins gave me. I hope you enjoy it. Thank you for making me live those moments.

Hi, guys, how was 2024 first week? I'm planning, I'm thinking about new ways to do I like to do. Best wishes for you, friends.

dear @galenkp I love beauty. Yes, It's a fragile thing, but also beauty is in the eye and mind of the beholder.

Hello there, I hope you've had a good first week of 2024 and that you have a nice weekend also.

This weekend I will have a lot of nice activities. I hope that today I get to write what I will be doing, and why 🙂

Excellent, I hope it's a good weekend overall.

I just finished all the preparations for the celebration this weekend, wrote a post on the topic: "What and why I did" and went on, as I promised in the post, to celebrate 🙂
Have a nice weekend, dear friends.

Enjoy the week ahead.

Busy weekend my friend, I spent most of the morning and afternoon yesterday at the vaquejada and practically the entire night at the Santos Reis festival. I woke up at 3 o'clock in the afternoon, I'm not one to say that, but this weekend made me tired lol. My post about this celebration: https://peakd.com/hive-168869/@josiva/party-of-santos-kings-another

I hope your weekend is also lively.

It sounds like you had plenty to do.. and still found time to do a post. ✅

I made the post having breakfast at 3:30 in the afternoon. I rested a little more and spent the night in the vaquejada. Today I don't leave the house, Sunday of well-deserved rest.

Enjoy your Sunday. 😊

Wishing you a wonderful week ahead.

I hope you have a great week also.

Thankyou

Greetings, happy new week 2024. A pleasure, greet you, dear, hiver, @galenkp, it is interesting the good intention to involve me what is being proposed.

Happy new year to you also, thanks for your message.

Hello friends in this weekend
experiences I tell you about an adventure with my son. We found an abandoned giant. I hope you enjoy it. Thanks for the opportunity to participate in this community.

https://peakd.com/hive-168869/@juliom/we-found-an-abandoned-giant

Ok thanks for letting me know.

https://ecency.com/hive-168869/@bigeyes2012/cleaning-time-inside-and-outside

I am not sure if my weekend experiences are valid for the said contest

Nah, that's not an entry, it was written and posted three days ago.

Oh sorry.Maybe next time I will try to join

The ring caught my attention first and I was like wow, that's a beautiful ring there. I just noticed there is a change this year, the weekend experience prompt countdown is showing 10 days instead of its usual 3 days, which I guess is a good thing.

Happy New Year to you and I will be dropping my entry soon.

Nope...3 days.

Oh, I guess that was a mistake then.

I look the same countdown showing 10 days at the first, then I reload it twice and it change to 3 days. I was shocked why the weekend experience prompt have a long duration? Hahaha. But, it just back to usual.

Nice prompts, but I have a question. What do I do when I have no picture of my own to use for a prompt I would like to write about?

You've got no pictures of your own at all? Hmm, ok well maybe you'd best not do an entry as stock images and AI are not permitted. I find it difficult to believe you don't have any pictures of your own though.

I meant having no picture of mine related to the topic. Not that I don't take pictures at all.

Sometimes people get creative...sometimes people choose not to.

I have the idea of public my post concerning a wedding on San Valentín days, but, Im going to participate in this contest

Ah ok. Well, the topic isn't about weddings...it's about wedding gifts, so make sure you follow the topic prompt.

So sorry, I have done the spot, is to late,
Can I make other post

First time joining this contest :) do I have to share here my entry? If yes, here it is:

You don't need to drop a link here, some do but it is not a requirement as I check the community feed a few times a day so I don't miss new entries.

Okkk thanks for the clarification :)

No worries at all.

The second topic made me laugh @jessicaaaa I think you will ace the second topic.

Really? I guess I'd give it a try😂 Thanks love🤭

Thanks for these amazing and interesting topics for the week, here is my first entry; https://ecency.com/hive-168869/@abu78/i-made-it-to-my-friends-wedding-week187?referral=abu78
