Welcome to this week’s edition of Aloha Friday.

In Hawaii, Aloha Friday is the day that we take it easy and look forward to the weekend. So I thought that on Fridays I would take it easy on posting, too. Therefore, I’ll ask a simple question for you to answer. Nothing that requires a lengthy response.

If you’d like to participate, just post your own question on your blog and leave your link below. Don’t forget to visit the other participants! It’s a great way to make new bloggy friends!

My question is:


What’s your favorite thing about Fridays?

    TGIF!!! It’s the end of the week, its the weekend, and most Friday’s these days are Furlough Fridays here in HI which means there’s no school for my kids and I get to sleep in, a little longer than usual.

    My favorite thing about fridays is that I only have the little one I watch for 3 hours, and I have the afternoon to hang out with just my daughter. And that now I have a bible study on Friday afternoons that Marlee can hang out with other kids, and I can do something for me. :)

    Other than the obvious start to the weekend(WOOT!); they day seems to go smoother…. everyone is a little less wound up. Everyone knows the work week is coming to an end, just wrap up the little bit of things you can do and get on to the weekend.

    I think people are a little cheerier too…and it trickles down.

    Have a great weekend!

    Wow I love Hawaii! Aloha time! Its reminds me of my nursery days. When I was young I dance aloha. Pearly shells and tiny bubbles. My teachers and classmate look at me while I dance Aloha. They amaze me and I enjoy dancing. Thanks for reminding me of my nursery days. More power to your site! God bless ;-)
