Buried in Busyness
Even though summers don’t exist like they used to when I was in school, I still see summer as a time when I can accomplish the things I want to do. Perhaps it is the long sunlight hours available that make it so great for getting things done. You all know I made a list of things to do about two months ago. I’ve accomplished, pretty much nothing. If you count three or four casts in five minutes, then I got fishing scratched off my list. Kayaking in the ocean is almost like jet skiing, right? That above ground pond is out of the question, although it may turn into a true pond if I can convince my mom that grass is over rated. Brewing beer? Who has the time to wait for beer to become drinkable when I can pick up a frosty cold one at the store now?
Rather than take this as motivation to start accomplishing things on the list, I’ve decided to add one more thing that I will not accomplish this summer. I stumbled across this site that will help people reach the goal of doing 100 consecutive pushups. As someone who hasn’t hit the gym since George W. Bush was popular, this sounds like just the thing for me. I was going to do the initial test tonight, but it’s late and I’ve already showered. We’ll see if this comes up again this summer…or ever again.

You should add stuff to your to-do list after you’ve done them. An “I did” list. You’ll feel much more productive.
Push ups are hard. Even girlie ones.
