I try to get out of the house and see people at least one of the days for my own sanity, because the rest of the week I WFH and only see my wife and maybe some random strangers at grocery stores or whatever, usually.

So I meet up with one of my groups of friends for board games (they almost always host something on Friday nights), or meet up with someone for dinner, or meet up with some people at a meetup (recently there's been a new movie+dinner meetup near me that has some cool people I've been going to every other week). Periodically there are parties hosted by my wife's family too. Every once in a while there's a party hosted by a friend.

Besides that, I mostly either try to play catch up with cleaning and/or lawn maintenance, let myself relax, or work on personal projects (working on a video game and several board game designs, sometimes a little work on writing stories or making electronic music).

If it's a nice weekend I try to take the dogs on a walk a bit further away than just around the neighborhood. We've got a nice trail a couple blocks away but there are even better ones and more options about a 10 minute drive away.

I'm also trying to get back into the habit of going to the gym at least one of those days, but I've been failing spectacularly at that so far.
