Well, summer is officially over. PB started preschool this week. (YAY!!)
We had a bonus week of summer and we tried to get some last minute list items in there. Here is the original list that I wrote before I got pregnant and was sick 3/4 of the summer. I crossed 26 things off the list.
Here are a few highlights from the list that we crossed off:
We had a bonus week of summer and we tried to get some last minute list items in there. Here is the original list that I wrote before I got pregnant and was sick 3/4 of the summer. I crossed 26 things off the list.
Here are a few highlights from the list that we crossed off:
#5 grill pizza. #32 fly a kite. #46 go to a baseball game. #1 go bowling
#31 go to the fair. #2 bring friends to the pool. #50 Hubby wants to master the grill. #30 go to the zoo. My favorite one here is Hubby on that grill. He is seriously a grilling master. It's like he is one with the grill. When he was cooking, we ate seriously well.
So 26 out of 50 isn't great but I have excuses for the rest.
EXCUSE #1: Anything cooking related or going to a place that was too hot or has a weird smell (#24 go to the library) was out of the question. Everything was making me barf this summer. So no smelling things or being hot.
EXCUSE #2: All the garden related list items I neglected were not completed because...
...these little caterpillars chomped my large tomato plants down. I was left with pretty much only cherry tomatoes. There goes making sauce and salsa.
EXCUSE #3: Home improvement projects that went undone like painting my bedroom, painting outside woodwork and getting a new patio door. Hubby was working all summer long crazy hours and I was either barfing or sleeping so no projects were done. BUT last week I got estimates for a new door and we picked which one we are getting, I just have to call and order it.
Sorry to all the people I wanted to have over for dinner. Cooking for my family was hard enough. We ate some pretty weird dinners that were pathetic. Luckily Hubby was spared when he was traveling.
I liked having the bucket list and making a goal for the summer. I would definitely do it again. 50 items is probably too unrealistic for me. Can't wait for next summer!! For now I am going to enjoy PB being in school 3 days a week :)

That's how last summer was for us. I felt like we did nothing! This summer was rather productive, however. So just remember, its temporary! Hope PB had a good first day of school!
