A Hurkle-Durkle Kind of Day

For some real estate professionals, Saturday is just another business day to get up, dress up and show up to the office or show properties at their clients convenience. Many others lounge around a bit, catching up on reading or doing nothing at all, before making their way to get a cup of coffee or tea and prepare a bite to eat.

The Scottish term, Hurkle-Durkle has a history of 200 years, they insist it leads to happiness. A long week of work, means relaxing or lounging in bed long after it's time to get up. For me, it's a day to get up, check messages, finish the blog and prepare for showing properties in outlying areas, to potential buyers.

No Hurkle-Durkle for me on this day. Maybe tomorrow...😋

 

How is your Saturday looking?

Good Saturday afternoon, Wanda. We have sleet in Maryland and expect to have an icy evening. It is a good time to stay at home. Dolores just baked soom cookies.

Wanda Kubat-Nerdin - Wanda Can! I try to have a "Hurkle-Durkle" kind of day every Saturday consisting of "relaxing or lounging in bed long after it's time to get up."  ☺️

Wanda- I love the term Hurkle-durkle!!! If it includes watching college basketball, then, that's what I had.

Hello Wanda - thank you for the introduction and definition of hurkle durkle -  I wonder if Steve Urkel from the sitcom, Family Matters practiced it.  However, you are spending it, I hope this is a Super Weekend.

This was established well before Urkel’s time, though could be applicable, Michael Jacobs, in some ways!? 👀

This is the first that I am hearing of hurkle-durkle, but I like it and wish that I had more hurkle-durkle in my life, haha.

Hello Dorie Dillard Austin TX, spent Saturday showing houses and then to a birthday party, so no Hurkle-Durkle here either. Today, I did some housework and then made homade, mini Rum Bundt cakes for dessert. Yummo!

Hi Wanda! Ha! I've never heard of it, nor knew the meaning but, it's something I haven't done since childhood. If I lollie-gag in bed after it's time to get up, I'm do doubt, sick as a dog! LOL

I read at night before going to sleep, that is a relaxing time to unwind and clear the mind, no sleeping in for me, Debe Maxwell, CRS. Once, I wake up, it's stretch, smile and go!

Same! Reading at night is SO relaxing to me too!

Wanda Kubat-Nerdin - Wanda Can!  I've never heard that term before, but it must have existed for a reason. We cannot run on empty forever. I think there are times we all need a Hurky Durlke day. Mental and physical vacation days save many from a condition called  burn-out. Love your post   Happy Monday
