I'd use due dates to distinguish. If I the world will blow up if I don't clean the place on saturday (or in my case, mow the lawn!) then I put in a due date If I could get away with not cleaning the place on saturday, then I don't put in a due date (just a context @Home)
That way - if I have some free time on the saturday (as my wife is watching ER), I'll have a look at things I could do and then decide accordingly.
