Summer Freedom
Routines block out my times so that I can see when I can have the luxury of unscheduled fun. Leaving some empty blocks on my calendar can be very exciting. I keep in mind my personal energy levels and try to schedule difficult tasks when I am at my peak. Some afternoons and evenings are better times to leave open while it is usually work as usual in the mornings.
I have a bucket list of some things I would like to accomplish during the summer. I love to give a summer party. I like to have some times to have lunch dates with friends. Usually during the rest of the year, our work schedules prevent this. I like to take in some outdoor concerts. I enjoy going to the Botanical Gardens. I love just sitting on the deck with my sweetie. I enjoy a mini vacation or two. But I do still have to plan and schedule in order to feel great about doing these fun activities. Life and work does go on in the summer even if it is at a slightly different level.
I am looking forward to a wonderful summer with all the extra freedoms that some good planning allows. Pardon me while I go pack.
