. I love the summer. Can you believe it’s August already?! The summer is a few weeks from being over and I feel like it just started. B”h we’re busy with some good things including a big project that we will be sharing with the masses sometime soon (if you don’t already know about it).
Some things that I still want to do before the summer ends:
~ Meet with a whole bunch of friends who I haven’t seen in a while. Mainly in the city or Brooklyn, but I’m hoping one or two of them will come here. I literally have like 10 girls on my list, when i’m going to fit in seeing them all? And that includes one coming in from Israel hopefully.
~ Go shopping for summer clearance stuff. I think I’ll wait till I have off to go back to the outlet mall. I have to return some stuff from SR’s kids there anyway.
~ Walk the Atlantic City bridge. Going to have to wait until it’s a little cooler though or maybe one evening.
~ Barbecue!! Can you believe we haven’t had a real one yet?! nuts.
~ Picnic for dinner. Somewhere in some park. We did it for Memorial Day, but I want to do another one!
~ There are still some people we haven’t been to for Shabbos or haven’t been in a while. I thought the summer was a good time. But I’m thinking of pushing off Washington heights until after the ’smushing on the FDR Drive on Friday’ season is over. We also want to have some company that we haven’t yet had or had in a while. The problem is I think the next few weeks we’re going to be stuck at home busy with the project until the last minute…
~ Visit a few different local friends on Shabbos that I never see and always say I’ll visit on those long summer shabbosim…
~ Go swimming a few more times in the Darchei Pool. Maybe invite a friend to join?
~ Eat ice cream outside.
~ Go to the beach! Not just walk there but actually wade into the ocean and play in the sand. Funny how I always end up at beaches miles away when we have a beach just a few blocks away!
~ Catch a movie in Brynat Park or Brooklyn bridge park. Not sure if it’ll happen.
~ Write up the second edition of the Priceless Shmooze (family newspaper).
~ Maybe get a little 2-3 day getaway with Adiel?
~ I’m sure there’s more that’s just skipping my mind right now.
And all this before Labor Day shows up and I have to get back to work…
