It doesn't help that we really only have about 3 months of true summer. You know, the hot, hot days where you just want to dunk your head into a bucket of ice? We're nearly half way through July and I can't help but wonder what I have really done this summer.
It has been a crazy one... our first summer in our own home, doing our own things.. working in the flowers beds when it's so hot I can hardly breath.. I won't go into too much detail.
So, that is something big I've done this summer thus far.. a summer I will never forget. A summer full of new beginnings, struggles, ups and downs, and everything in between. Although, we are kind of halfway done with summer (in my eyes-September 1st marks Fall to me) I can't wait for the next season for us to experience in our new home. Fall is my favorite summer.
BUT... I don't want Summer to hurry up and go, not just yet. I have a few more things I need to get done in this house.. before the Holiday season quickly approaches. I have more flowers that need planted, more landscaping that needs done.. more BBQs and get togethers. More late nights on our patio, with a fire going and smores..more more more. Don't leave quite yet Summer, I'm not done with you.
It's been super hot here lately, and we get a nice break this week.. only the mid-80s. That will be nice. I have a project (for my garden of course) that I want to start working on soon... it'll be fun.. just another one to add to the list. I've actually started to get my scrapbooking/craft room in order... kinda. Step by step things gradually get done, and another project moves up the list. I've been told that will never end.. I'm OK with that. I think it's fun to do things around the house, change things, fix things, make it our own...who wouldn't?
Enjoy the summer while it's here... I need to make a few more beach trips before I consider myself Summered out, if that's a word...
Which is why I'll definitely be making a beach trip next Saturday.. oh yes, it's on the agenda. Unfortunately, I'm unable to actually go on a weeks worth of vacation.. so day trips and over night trips will have to do.. I can handle that. We make the most out of everything while we can. That's what's great about us... it's the little things that count.
Hopefully, this week flies by... but not too fast. Off to BBQ dinner!
