What to say when she says she's burnt out and needs a slow weekend

She called her update boring and apologised for it. That's the detail to pay attention to. People who are depleted often feel guilty about not having energy for the other person, so they pre-apologise. She is not asking you to fix her week. She's telling you the shape of the next two days so you don't take it personally when she doesn't reply quickly or doesn't want to meet.

The read here is that she likes you enough to tell you the truth about her state, which is a good sign on its own. Burnt-out honesty is often a sign the person feels comfortable with you. It is not a sign she's losing interest. The real question for you is whether you can take her at her word and still stay warm.

A slow weekend usually means her battery is low, not that the conversation is over. If the messages have been warm before this, the drop in energy is the variable to read. If the messages have been thin all along, a tired message is just a tired message, and you'll learn more from the next exchange than this one.

Don't try to decide from one text whether she's pulling back. Look at how she responds to the next thing you send, once she has had some rest. Warm people who are tired still reply warmly, just shorter. Cold people reply with a flat acknowledgment and nothing else.

The most useful thing you can do here is leave a clear, low-effort option for after the weekend, without tying it to the weekend itself. If you say you'd love to see her when she's rested, you've given her something to look forward to without asking for a decision now. If you propose a specific day, she has to think about her energy again, which is the thing she just told you she doesn't have.

Keep the offer loose enough that she can pick it up or leave it. The point is that she knows you're interested and that you're not going to make her manage your expectations while she recovers.
