Talking about the weekend

Question

These are some things I common say or hear after the weekend or a holiday. in English I'd appreciate it if someone could help me translate these to Spanish. Feel free suggest your own, as this kind of stuff makes great small talk.

(1) The weekend wasn't long enough.

(2) I could've used a few more days off.

(3) I could use another long weekend.

(4) I didn't want to come back after the long weekend.

(5) A few more days off would be nice

My translation attempts are below. Please correct them and provide the most common and natural translations. Thanks!

(1) El fin de semana no fue suficiente de largo

(2) Podría haber usado otro fin de semana largo

(3) Puedo usar otro fin de semana largo

(4) No quise regresar despúes del fin de semana largo

(5) Unos días libres más sería bueno

I'm not sure that "usar" is used the same we do in English, but I guess you guys will let me know.

Answer 1

(4) No quise regresar despúes del fin de semana largo

No quería regresar despúes el puente.

No quise means "refused".

Answer 2

3) Puedo usar otro puente. In Mexico they use Puente for long weekend.
