Obviously, my summer activities have changed since becoming an empty nester. Long, hot summer days with kids are very different from the ones spent without them. But they are far from boring.
Ten Things Summer on an Empty Nest List
- Shaving the legs weekly instead of monthly. Ok, seasonal. Sue me. I hate shaving my legs.
- Do all outside activities before 8:00 in the A.M. Thaaat's right. You come on down here and try to spend the daylight hours in our summer heat/humidity. Can't. Be. Done. At least, not without developing a HUGELY unattractive attitude.
- Stop forgetting that BEGINNING a summer project means it has to be seen through to COMPLETION. Sheesh.
- Don't bother turning on the television. Pretty much everything on every network is stupid.
- Ceiling fans whirling and twirling nonstop until November.
- Damn mosquitoes.
- Take at least two showers every day. No reminders needed. For most of us anyway.
- Water! Ice! Air conditioning!
- Go to the beach and enjoy the scenery. Wink, wink! :)
- Try to avoid pastels because all fat rolls can be seen more clearly in them. AND, in pastels, they look about 4 times bigger.
What's on your summer list?
