Lazy days off work or productive?

I Wake up around the same time i normally do on a workday. This ensures that i am not wasting that precious time sleeping away.
I go out and stay out later than i normally would the night before my day off. Since i am not obligated to wake up early, I can go to a bar, stay in and have a few drinks, or party the night before my day off.
I run errands that i normally don’t have time for as early as possible. Try to finish all my errands before noon. This way my day off is productive while still leaving enough time for leisure.
I pick what type of day i will have. Is it going to be a pool day, spa day, hiking day, adventure day, creative day, Netflix/lazy day, etc? Try to do something that i normally don’t have time for on a typical workday.
I see if my significant other, friends, or family also have that day off and plan to spend the day with them. It’s usually tough to spend time with them after i am exhausted from work so try to use that time to spend time with them.
If i have some spare cash to blow, i try booking a night at a resort the night before my day off and spend my day off there. See what it’s like to be a tourist in my own city!
If i want to be productive then i spend my entire day running errands and cleaning the house. Even though it’s still work, it’ll be worth it in the long run.
The main thing i want to do is plan my day off in advance so that i make the most of my time. The worst thing to do on a day off is to sleep in and do nothing of value. Before you know it, it’ll be 5pm and you realized that you didn’t gain much from not being at work. On your day off, your objective should be to do activities that you normally wouldn’t do if you were at work. Sleeping in and watching Netflix is a waste of time because you could’ve done that after work even if you weren’t off.

What do you prefer?

Honestly I like a little bit of both. I’m a night owl anyway so I sleep in on my days off.
On my days off I go grocery shopping, help my family with things, clean my house, do fun things, etc.
Some days I just want to relax at home and be lazy. Lately though, I have been having zero lazy days. I am always doing something
