But before I jump into my fall bucket list, I'll give you one final update on my Summer Bucket List.
1. Make at least five day trips to the beach. - We didn't make it to the beach five times, but we went one more time in September and we also spent a week at the beach in July. So I think this is actually a success!
2. Read three fun books.- Yes! I read three fun books in July and then another three fun mystery books the end of August/beginning of September.
3. Go to the farmers' market at least once a week. -Nope. Nope. Nope.
4. Go on one hike per week. - We did very well with this one!
5. Take two barre and/or yoga classes per week. - Yes, after a very slow start, I got my groove back.
6. Sleep in at least once per week. - Even though I was off from my teaching job in July and August, life was very hectic and stressful. Unfortunately, that affected my sleep.
7. Barbecue at least once per week. -We did okay at the beginning of summer but then not so much.
8. Spend time in the patio every day. - I spent some time every day watering and pruning but didn't utilize our outdoor sofa as much as I would have liked.
9. Swim at least four times per week. - Nope. In fact, I think we swam less than last year!!!
10. Make good use of our Great America and Monterey Bay Aquarium season passes. - Yes, we made good use of both passes. I really liked having the list to keep me accountable and to remind me of the things I wanted to do.
- Continue to take at least 2 barre/yoga classes per week.
- Visit a pumpkin patch (that the kid deems not too childish.)
- Visit an Oktoberfest celebration.
- Get one Pumpkin Spice Latte.
- Read at least three fun books.
- Put up the fall decorations and add a few more.
- Make pumpkin spiced oatmeal.
- Organize one section of my closet every week.
- Light a candle when I work from home.
- Visit the Farmer's Market once a week.
