As a teacher I seem to impatiently demand summer right after spring break. My students start to get a little squirrely (or frisky) as my principal might say. And I too get a case of spring fever in early May. Two weeks into May, my countdown to summer begins. And I find myself wishing more and more that the last day of school will finally come.
And then all of a sudden it does! And my summer vacation begins! Mr. R and I were talking about making the most of our time. And I find that I sometimes squander my summer. I wait so long for it to come and then all of a sudden my vacation is gone and I am not quite sure what I have done with my glorious days off.
To make the most of my summer vacation, I am making my summer wish-list. A few things that I want to make sure I accomplish for the sheer fun of it.
- Eat Rita's water ice and walk along the beach
- Go to free music night at the pier
- Go dancing
- Host a grill only dinner party
- Take a vacation with Mr. R (sans cell-phones)
- See Mr. R's grandparents
- Visit Mom and NJ family
- Play mini golf
- Eat lobster
- Play with sparklers
- Jump on a trampoline (but I will settle for a bounce house)
- Eat an ice-cream cone
- Pack a picnic with friends to hear music downtown
- See the fireworks at Disney
- Take a roadtrip
- Get a pedicure
- Go to a drive-in movie
- Run on the beach
- Go vegan for a day
- Go to a luau
What's on you summer wish list?
I love this! I think I may need to do one too - although if you'd love company on any of these you know where I will be :)

I LOVE the movie "Endless Summer"! I watched it multiple times in HS while dating the guy who introduced me to Pink Floyd and other such types of amazing music :)
Since you offered, I have you down for a run on the beach, a picnic downtown, and dancing. Let me know when you are free!
