The good weather is returning!
What are you planning for the summer months?
Projects? Travel? Learning something new? Gardening?
What's on your list for summer fun this year?
 
ive got enough projects now to last me well into the fall, but there will be more to somehow fit in...... a couple camping trips hopefully and a lot of fishing trips and lake outings...gardening is in there too, along with some change-ups in landscaping, maybe.....lots of day trips with a couple overnighters hopefully, and a couple of festivals in late summer i would like to attend... i dont really "plan" anything in advance, just kinda stay fluid and see what comes up or where life takes me.....lol
 
Long overdue house maintenance. I met with a roofing contractor on Friday and all of the necessary measurements and information were collected. His supervisor, however, wants to take a look himself and we're going to reschedule this week most likely, and I'll have the cost, start and completion dates. Then onto the foundation, a mostly new bathroom and a touch-up paint wise.
 
What? I'm not planning nothing! I'm just whistling innocently minding my business, which is entirely legitimate!
Oh! For summer! I'm mostly just hoping to never again experience a hell like last summer's heatwave. It used to be my favourite time of year but after that torment (it was hotter in the early hours of the morning than a hot summer's day in my childhood and no air con here; I had tubs of ice behind a fan which had to be constantly refreshed, windows covered in foil and the bathtub always full of cold (relatively speaking) water to plunge into often and was still suffering all the time. I I barely slept as I monitored the temperature inside and out to time window opening and closing - in the communal parts of the building too - in a desperate attempt to reduce the heat in here. I grew up in a cool climate and have no ability to cope with this.) I'm traumatised. I need this year to be okay again. That is all. Plans are emergency insulation for windows and an extra electric fan, or maybe even blowing my money fleeing north to some random place if it happens again. It's too soon after that to look forward to it.
