But the list of things to do is building up.
Here's how my summer is looking:
- make polar fleece mittens for next year's kids (40 pair)
- make felt food for my dramatic play centre
- organize phys ed lessons
- do my Reggio readings (have almost a dozen books)
- make baby gifts for J
- assemble my Christmas themed tip in book -- the last pages are here!
- mount the white 3x3 swap squares (they were in Sew Somerset -- the swap was over a year ago)
- prepare for week at the cottage
- prepare for 2 weeks in Phoenix
- organize the art studio (I could likely do this every weekend for the rest of my life)
- cut the dogs hair
- make some zombie dolls for some certain deserving people
- paint the trim in the bedroom (waiting 2 years)
- finish painting the basement (I started last summer)
- tackle the removal of 100 years of wallpaper and paint off the front hall walls
- battle the slugs!
- buy a new bike and ride to the beach almost every day :)
Today I'm making thank you cards. It's about 10 billion degrees here today. Okay, perhaps I exaggerate a bit. It feels like 10 billion degrees today..... I've also done my income taxes today (yes, I'm a few months late.....) and I did Lauren's taxes too.... and I ordered some school supplies for the fall....
Tomorrow I shall ride my new bike to the swimming pool and swim a mile...... I love summer :)

I love lists. I love crossing things off the list. Then of course if you have leftovers, you get to make a new list. Perhaps we should try mixing it up a bit by trading lists!! Have a nice vacation Mrs. B.
Very busy! Love the 2 weeks in Phoenix part.
I think you need an assistant Martha ...somebody to strip your wallpaper, cut the dog's hair, finish painting the basement and so on. If I win the lottery I'm buying you one.
That's quite a list Martha. I love lists....now only if I can find it. LOL!
Enjoy your vacation! Hope to see you one of the ATC nights, too bad I won't be there on Friday. Have fun!
I'm exhausted from reading your list!!
I can't wait until you get here!!!!
I used to love summer when I was a teacher. I would waste it all and spend the last 2 weeks before school trying to do all the painting and redecorating I was to do over the summer. That was all pre-children of course. Now I love summer for other reasons.
have a good one.
It really is 10 billion degrees out there :) Did you get affected by the black out? Don't forget to add the milagros to your very loooong list..lol! Good luck getting it all done!
