On Saturday morning I didn't wake up early. My alarm rang at eight, but I didn't get out of bed until nine. Kim didn't cook breakfast because she didn't buy eggs on Friday. We didn't eat together at the table; we drank tea standing in the kitchen.
I didn't go to the gym on Saturday. Kim didn't join a yoga class near the river. We didn't exercise much, and we didn't feel guilty about it. The weather didn't look sunny, so we didn't walk far from home.
We didn't visit the market in the town centre. Kim didn't need fresh vegetables because we didn't finish the salad from Thursday. I didn't spend money on clothes or books. Our wallets didn't feel lighter at the end of the day.
In the afternoon I didn't clean the whole flat. Kim didn't wash the windows because rain didn't stop for two hours. We didn't organize the bookshelf, and we didn't throw away old magazines. The living room didn't look perfect, but it didn't look terrible either.
We didn't watch a long film on Saturday evening. Kim didn't choose a scary movie, and I didn't suggest a comedy. We didn't argue about the remote because we didn't turn on the television. Instead we didn't stay silent; we talked about work and friends.
On Sunday I didn't call my parents before lunch. They didn't worry because I didn't forget them completely. I didn't send photos, but I didn't ignore their messages. Kim didn't speak to her sister on the phone either.
We didn't cook a big dinner on Sunday night. Kim didn't bake a cake, and I didn't prepare soup from scratch. We didn't invite neighbours, and we didn't eat late. We didn't feel hungry because we didn't skip lunch.
Before bed I didn't read for an hour. Kim didn't finish her novel, and I didn't write in my journal. We didn't stay awake until midnight. We didn't regret the quiet weekend.
Sometimes a slow weekend helps me rest. I didn't travel, I didn't shop, and I didn't rush. Kim didn't complain, and we didn't feel bored together. Next weekend we didn't know our plans yet, but we didn't worry about that on Sunday night.
