She might clean out her 7-year-old’s closet and find an alarming number of candy wrappers in there…
I am spring weekend mum! I’m not sure how the cardi as shirt works, but I am willing to give it a go.
Oh my gosh! I just went ooh – cardigan as a shirt, maybe I’ll do that today!
I feel seen :)
this is my weekend plan. wow. i feel so common.
Me!
I’m still curious about the lightbulb thing?? I only change mine when one burns out. Is this not normal? Am I a lightbulb freak?!? Hahaha
I assumed she just meant changing bulbs she needs to that have been out for a while. For example, my oven light has been out for a month and I’m sure I’ll change it in a cleaning fervor sometime in the coming weeks.
Signed- a lazy person
the new ones gradually get dim.
Omg. I am three for four just counting today 😂
SAME. might buy a plant tomorrow to make it 4/4!!
Sorry for my inability to proofread. When I type from my phone I cant scroll back to edit on this website.🙂
I dont know this bothers me. Its the predictable that his what woman /moms do.
I hope all the women have a little more fun this weekend.
Be wild. Be free.

I am a mother and have never once related to any of these “mom” comics! :)
My Weekend Mom:
12 hour day in the recording studio
Avoiding making any meals at all costs
Playing music with my kiddo
Drinking wine and reading Angela Davis’ autobiography while it rains.
There are all kinds of great moms out there!
Agree. Will probably try to become a mom soon, and these comics make me a little scared of what my life will look like.
Hitting a little close to home today, emphasis on “might” . . .
I agree! My weekends are always filled with “mights” that often turn into didn’t come Sunday night! 🤣🤣🤣
Love the sentiments but what is the reason for changing the lightbulbs? Do people use different lightbulbs when it’s cold vs. warmer weather? Is it an aesthetic or energy-related thing? Or is this a general spring cleaning kind of thing?
I think it just means ones that have burned out and not yet been replaced!
It’s supposed to snow tonight in Paris !
This is me! In Australia we are in Autumn (Fall) and all these things apply just add she might make an apple pie or she might buy some fancy hot cross buns.
It is such a relief to remember that it’s always apple pie season somewhere on Earth :)
…Actually, it’s so freakin’ cold here, I might make an apple pie this weekend!
Happy fall, y’all (in the southern hemisphere)!
I’m dividing and repotting a bromeliad that’s run amok (Bromy became Bromy and Michelle), and I lopped the sleeves and hem off a concert tee so I can roll around the neighborhood in it and leggings like the yoga roadie I apparently am. LOOK OUT.
This comment is a delight
Lauren O, when you write your book or column or whatever your damn creative, clever, hysterically funny self does with your words… Let us know here. You have me look at my days more freely, be less critical of myself and, above all else, smile when I see your comment.
dying over “yoga roadie”
I’m already laughing hysterially at the idea of the expression on my teen daughters faces when I tell them that yes, I AM going out of the house wearing leggings and this old favorite t-shirt because I’m going for the yoga roadie look.
“Maybe she will go skiing, maybe she will build a snowman with her kid, maybe she will listen to some Irish music, maybe she will curse daylight savings time with having said kid.”
My weekend plans lol. Two more weekends of ski trips and then it can be spring! (LOL who am I kidding, spring doesn’t come in Vermont until mid May.)
Yes, it’s the same in Québec! I always remind myself that we can get snow til mid-April, so eve though it might techically be “spring,” what I consider spring starts way later. :) It’s a very short spring, haha!
We have -15C and kilometers of snow. I still want to do all those things
This is great. Maybe it should be called Weekend Woman, because I’m not a mom, but every one of these things is on my list for this weekend. Spring, hurry up and get here!
Yes! Also more inclusive and sensitive for a diverse community.
Hehe, I can wholly relate. I’m living in my parents’ home for a few weeks while our home is renovated and I’m making a few little adjustments so their home is cosier for them, when they return. Upgrading lightbulbs (farewell cool light, hello warm) is at the top of my list this weekend xx
I am also not a mom but always relate to these comics. Today I’m 3/4, haha.
I like Weekend Woman, though I secretly think it’s funny to call myself Weekend Mom!
I’ve killed all my plants year after year, but I might paint each fingernail a pastel shade like Selena Gomez and schedule a carpet cleaning/window cleaning service! Even though we got 6 inches of snow last night….
Three out of four were already on my list for this weekend. Maybe I should change some lightbulbs, too…
She might think she’s going to do all of that and then do nothing.
Facts! Hahaha
LOL. Cosign.
hahahahaha, relate
Meanwhile I’m in 3 feet of snow 😔
I hear ya, sister! SAME!
Yes, currently mending a ripped knee on my son’s snow pants while we get a foot of snow because I know spring is still at least a couple months away and we need these pants to last through a few more sledding runs, snowshoe treks, etc.
Oh my gosh, I literally did every single one of these last few days ha. ha. Guilty and loving it!
