Saturday no longer feels like Saturday.

Usually... I do errands.

Fill up the gas tank. Get coffee and a chocolate donut.

Go grocery shopping.

Take my dog to the dog park.

Go to yoga class.

Go out to lunch with a friend.

Take out the trash.

Do laundry.

Watch a movie.

Now every day feels the same, with no end in sight.

but even in retirement there were things I did based on what day it was. Now it's just a blur and I have to look at my phone to see what day it is.
