Because here is what I don’t want to do this summer. Pout, while in lovely surroundings, that I’m
the ONLY one vacuuming up the popcorn.
You’ll note that keeping the house clean was absent from the list above.
Stress, that my child didn’t get a first place ribbon and
that Blake isn’t making progress with his speech or behavior in in summer
program.
Feel like I’m not doing enough. Get a major case of the ENOUGH life
suck. Like I’m not MAXIMIZING enough
of the summer- because I AM crazy goal oriented and totally capable of setting
unattainable goals and most certainly capable of feeling like crap when I don’t
check them off the list. This is a big
list. It’s a FUN – for me at least –
list. And this is just 40% of what was
on the top of my mind in June and what I had already planned. There will be more this summer. There will be the unexpected plot twist, there always is. The plan disruptor or the fun fairy that
comes along. In writing this ‘first
thought’ list, I see 1: that these are things that are at the moment my top of
mind priorities and 2: that I don’t need to dream up any MORE ideas. That would turn this summer into the AMAZING
RACE summer edition, which I can see on TV, but don’t need to live.
Suns out buns out y ‘all. I gotta learn me a new joke.
