I've heard so many of my teacher friends talking about their summer being over. For many teachers, it ended awhile ago. For some incredibly lucky reason, I got about two weeks added to the end of my summer. That lucky reason was - building remodeling. Don't think for a minute that I'm lucky enough to ALSO go back to a renovated room. But I'm not complaining! Two more weeks to bask in summer's warmth is enough luck for me. I keep seeing my coworkers on facebook talk about "getting back into the grind" and the dread that comes along with it. The truth is that I still feel like I have tons of time - almost a whole week yet! I realize I am so lucky.
What am I going to do before the end of summer?
- A quick trip to Chicago
- Finish another book
- Go out to lunch
- Go on a bikeride on a trail I've never been on.
- Go out for morning coffee with my husband - a lot.
- Make more jewelry
- Edit a few more pictures
- Update photo albums
- Finish our home renovation project(s)
- Write a few letters
- Organize my desk
- Watch the Netflix movie we got about 3 weeks ago
- Blog about some things I've been meaning to blog about (this isn't one of them)
- Paint my toenails
- Jump on beds
- Go on walks at Forest Park Nature Center
- Clean my house
- Clean my windows
- Empty the dishwasher (I would rather wash dishes between each meal)
- Break a sweat

I like that list!
WOW - you're going to accomplish in two weeks what's taken me all summer to do! Enjoy the unexpected time off - that's a nice way to start the school year.
