Things That I Will Definitely Get Accomplished This Summer That I Failed To Get Accomplished Last Summer (And The Summer Before That And The Summer Before That), The List:

Throwback to June 7, 2016

1. I will learn another foreign language.

2. I will lose 20 pounds.

3. I will send all the home videos out to be converted to DVDs.

4. I will clean out every closet in the house, even those in the kids’ rooms.

5. I will organize my recipe files and maybe even purge those “Baking with Toddlers” and “Fun with Jello!” cookbooks.

6. I will cook every evening and use vegetables from the farmers’ market.

7. I will catch up on reading all those National Geographic magazines that have piled up into tottering yellow towers.

8. I will finish that cross-stitch project that I started during the Bush era. The first Bush, not Dubya.

9. I will finish the kids’ grade school scrapbooks. Don’t judge me, I have been busy.

10. I will explore strange new worlds, seek out new life and new civilizations, and boldly go where no man has gone before.
