Well, summer is just around the corner (though our weather wouldn't agree) and it is the first summer since my junior year in high school that I'm not working! I know most people don't get to enjoy the luxury of having summers off, but I promise you that teachers need it. It is a very real necessity for us educators. Anyway, I've been thinking a lot about how I'll fill my free time. It makes me a bit anxious to think I might be home doing nothing for two months!!! Okay, one month...July's already booked, but August is completely open. Because of this, I've decided to create a "bucket list" of sorts, but instead of finishing my list before I die I want to finish my list before school starts again next fall. Feel free to hold me accountable to this list! I get easily sidetracked by absolutely nothing, and I welcome you to get on my case for staying active. Okay, so here's the list:
1) Host a dinner party
2) Go hiking weekly
3) Go camping at least once
4) Go to Wild Waves
4) Spend a day at Pike Place Market
5) Travel to a new state (this is kind of cheating...I already know I'm doing this)
6) Go to an outdoor concert
7) Create something - probably artwork of some kind
8) Go Kayaking
9) Work in my mama's yard
10) Spend more time with family
I figure 10 items allows for one item every 3 days or so, which is probably reasonable. It is only a month, after all! Anyway, summer starts this coming weekend...here we go!
