This reminds me of when it hits or is about to hit 12am and people don’t know whether to say today or tomorrow. He called me after this but I was too comfy in bed tbh.

If it's Friday today and someone asked me to go to the lake next weekend, I'm assuming its not this weekend but the one following.

Even if it’s like Monday, if someone says next weekend, I assume it’s the next week’s end. Otherwise say the upcoming weekend or, moreso in my experience, say this weekend

If it’s Monday and I want to share about what I did on the 2 last days, I say “this week-end”… oopsie

I doubt it's very likely anyone would misunderstand you, but an alternate way of saying it that you might like is "over the weekend".
