We are so close, fellow teachers. So. close. I started counting down the days for summer late April, stopped counting down because double digit numbers seemed unbearable, and have restarted counting down because 3 is not so scary of a number.

I am taking on some jobs this summer, but I am committed to not wasting time on social media, television, and too much sleep. Here are some of my goals for this summer.

I just applied for membership to the YMCA which is only located 10 minutes away, so I have no excuse to not exercise. I even have a buddy to exercise with.

I know that all of the house projects will get finished, so I am actually limiting what I am allowed to do or that will be ALL I do. I just can't help myself.

I love reading, but struggle spending the money on books which is where the library card comes in. I want to read The Grasshopper Lies Heavy which is what the show, The Man in the High Castle is based on. The Girls is a thriller recommended by Cup of Jo.

What are your goals this summer? Does everyone around this time of year wish they were teachers?
