Note: I do not intend to kick said bucket on Labor Day, so I may need to finish some of these things in September.
Ten Things On My Summer Bucket List.
- Finish clearing the stuff off the tables outside my office.
- Relocate one of the tables elsewhere in the house, where I will set up my 1970s vintage but new-to-me knitting machines.
- Learn to use said machines.
- Finish stenciling the house number (actually, in the country we use fire numbers as the house numbers) on our mailbox. Younger Son started this when he was in his stencil-everything-in-sight phase back in the early 00s, and I have intended to finish it every summer since. Maybe this will be the year.
- Knit on the deck. Lots.
- Finish one of the sooper seekrit Christmas projects I have started.
- Go for many, many pontoon boat rides.
- Visit Elder Son in Sioux Falls at least once.
- Add plants to my garden; specifically, lilies of the valley (they spread, which is what I want), Virginia bluebells, columbines, other shade plants.
- Have teenage helper create a nice edging on said garden.
