First Day of Summer Vacation

Of all the days in the entire year, there is only one first day of summer vacation ... and this is it!!!!!

So far I'm still full of vim and zeal - up just after seven, walked dogs, made bread, did laundry, tidied my drawer full of Cd's (a task I'd put off for ages) which is now two drawers half-full of Cd's. Still to come: brownies, hanging up the just-finished laundry, a session of EA Sports Active, supper, another walk and more. As the days go by, though, I expect my pace to slow down steadily. You simply don't realize how weary you are at the end of a school year until you sit and settle and let it sink in.

Summer goals? Modest as usual. No vacation plans (no summer vacation for Dan) although I'd love a little weekend getaway to somewhere. Mainly we need to tidy out the basement - More. Again. (Or still.) I'm going to Wii a little almost every day. And I'm going to write a journal/blog/something regularly. My goal is four times a week, which I think is reasonable. My topics won't be earth shattering - just the typical thoughts, feelings, events of a typical life. Mainly I want to hone my writing skills - or at least not let them deteriorate too badly.

Et c'est tout. Bonne première journée d'été!
