Thomas -- your commitment to a dedicated day off is admirable.  In a "normal" week I take parts of days off.

I'm big on appointments - including those set with myself. I have Sundays blocked out forever. I will meet in person on Sat by advance appointment. So, floating and set, and, as brokers know, if there's a fire, slide down the pole and suit up. :)

Wednesday is my usual "day off."  I spend this day with my grand children. That's the way it's been for 4 yrs.  Before they entered school I would take them to the library  on Wednesday  for story time. Followed by a trip to the park, lunch and whatever else came along. Yep, 3 car seats lined across the backseat and the oldest in front seat.  

Now, they attend different schools so I take lunch to school. I pick one a week.  This is our "Mimi time!"  

Afterwords I complete my shopping and other errands. I will answer my phone and emails but try NOT to work on Wednesdays.

Years ago I used to always take of Tuesdays.  We had a Mon 9am sales meeting and a Wed 9am caravan tour.  I'm in no way a morning person and those days used to practically kill me!    More recently, I've not worked on Sundays unless it couldn't be avoided (like today at 2pm)  And, I always take off Friday for Date Night

Well always take Thursday late afternoon off for a date night. I try to take one weekend day off too. Usually Sunday but sometimes Saturday. Depends on what I have scheduled. I try to set certain days and times in advance for scheduled clients (amazing how those times fill). You do need down time. But clients are very important... and most understand. However, in our current market it is a little more difficult as properties are often selling within 2-5 days of listing. Ifyou delay a showing you may miss out.

I work just about every day to some degree. I do take days off here and there for family events but I usually reachable by phone. We plan vacation time but I always bring the lap top and take a few calls if necessary. My last vacation over the 4th of July, I negotiated three contracts. All from a poolside tiki bar in Islamorada.
