The Summer 11


At the beginning of this summer I created a list of things that I wanted to accomplish this summer. I have become more of a "list" person recently. Not necessarily a list of things to do in a day, but a list of things I want to accomplish over a period of time. My list is 11 items long. Why 11, because it is not 10. I often wonder how life would be different if humans didn't have 10 fingers (I know weird...) so I tend to make lists of 11 things.
So here's the Summer 11:

1. Bike - 5 "Challenges"

I could list the challenges but they wouldn't make much sense to anyone who might read this. I have done a fair amount of biking and should complete most/if not all of this goal by the end of the summer.

2. House - 3 Improvements

Two started and will be finished by the end of the summer. - The last improvement is the least important, but I still might get to it.

3. Complete a 5K race

Yeah, this isn't going to happen.

4. Cave Explorations

Wish I could do this one but lack of $$$ is hampering it.

5. Read 3 Books

Ok, I know 3 books in one summer is not a lot. I am a teacher. I should be reading 30 books this summer. But I have 3 specific books I want to read. Two down and one to go.

6. Make progress in writing a book

Progress is a relative term I guess. I have thought about it and got some resources together but nothing down on paper yet.

7. Join A Health Center

Haven't yet but I am waiting until closer to the end of summer to join because I have been biking a lot. Why pay for it when I can do it outside for free. But it will happen.

8. Take a unique class

Found the class and the date. Hopefully I don't leave the class with a scar...

9. Put myself out there

A. Actively look for someone whom I am attracted to

B. Go on a date

yeah, I suck at this one. I knew it would be the toughest one. Why can't love be easy.

10. Seize and opportunity

Still looking for one.

11. Reflect on the summer

Oh yeah I'll do this one. If I can do anything, it is reflect.

So there it is, the Summer 11. I have to say after looking at the list I am happy with my progress thus far, excluding numbers 3 and 9. Those damn multiples of 3......
Thinking about the fifth smallest prime number with WONDER...
