I have never been a huge fan of Summer. Maybe if I lived somewhere else where the temperature was not so high and just doing anything results in sweat pouring off my face. But I live in a hot area, and electricity is sooooo expensive in the summer months. So many time I just sit and sweat during the day until after the magic time zone starts again where I can turn on the air without having my bill double.

But summer does have its charms. When I think of Summer in the traditional way, I think of going to the beach, picnics, pool parties and enjoying long days of sunshine. When I was a child, the summer vacation was the best. No school, just fun. But when you are an adult, you work thru summer and there is no block of time to just have fun. I think we ought to implement this type of schedule in the workplace. I would vote for that.

For the first time ever I am doing a summer bucket list. Maybe it will get me to embrace Summer and all its charms. I may not be able to go hiking anymore but I can do virtual hikes and enjoy the scenery. I can also learn about lighthouses which I associate with summer and beaches. Not to mention the pretty flowers and summer drinks.

I have already started a few of these items and plan to finish all of these by the end of August. So basically I have a few weeks to finish out my summer and start on my Autumn bucket list.

Going to go read my summer book and watch a video or two before going to sleep for the night.

Enjoy your day or evening!
