Some Updates and New Things

i have to say that i'm terribly sorry. Another week has gone by and i still haven't completed anything off my Summer Bucket List. This morning i took a good look at what was left on the list to see if there was anything i could quickly complete....there wasn't. i decided that there are a few things on the list that i don't think i'll get to before the summer's up. So instead of crossing off a few things today, Wishful Wednesday will be used to update the list in a different way today. i'm going to be pulling off a few things from the list and add some more realistic/doable things.

Here's what the list looks like right now:

Summer Bucket List 2012

1. Farmer’s Market
2. Driving Range
3. Create something for the Garden
4. Make Popsicles
5. Root Beer Floats
6. Run through the Sprinklers
7. Miniature Golf
8. Make smoothies
9. Go Walking/Hiking
10. Day Spa/Massage
11. Pancake/Waffle Breakfast
12. Beach Day
13. Create a door hanger with our last name
14. Fly a Kite
15. Bike Ride
16. Squeeze Lemonade
17. Strawberry Shortcake
18. Car-wash
19. Summer color nails
20. Bubble Fun

The first thing i'm taking off is #3. Create something for the Garden. i've decided that gardening is not my thing....at least not when i don't have extra time on my hands. i'm keeping my "green thumb" clean for the time being and will pick-up the gardening again when i have the time and energy to do so. So, instead of creating something for the garden i've decided that i will replace that with getting a plant for my office. i would really like a bamboo plant, but anything will do.

New #3. Buy a Plant for my Office

The next things i'm changing is #4. Make Popsicles. i've decided that this is something i need to wait and do with my future children. There's no need to make popsicles for just me and hubby....besides, i don't think we'll eat them. Instead, i'm changing this to making homemade ice cream - a new flavor. This should be fairly easy since i've only ever made vanilla. i already know which flavor i'll be making (a recipe i found on Pinterest).

New #4. Make a New Flavor of Homemade Ice Cream

The last thing i'll be changing on the list is #14. Fly a Kite. i don't think they'll be too much wind during the last few weeks of summer. So i'm changing this to a pool day. Now, i don't have a pool so i'll need to work on that detail but i'm pretty sure i can crash someone else's for a few hours.

New #14. Pool-Side

i should be able to knock-out a few more of these soon. Now i'm certain i can get all these done by the end of summer.

On a different note...i'm excited for a new challenge i'll be introducing next Tuesday. i'm switching "Tickle Me Pink" Tuesdays to "This & That" Tuesdays. You'll understand more about that next week! Can't wait to bring a few new things to the blog!

A few hints as to "what's to come".

Until next time...ta ta for now!
