What I've Been Doing: Week 1

Though this week doesn't really count as Week 1 of vacation (I didn't turn in my grades until Monday), it is the beginning of vacation. So what have I been doing?

1. Cleaning the bedroom (mopping floor, dusting, cleaning the door, more dusting)
2. Purging (old running shoes, clothes not worn in decades, Son's too small clothes)
3. Cleaning downstairs (so far I've only recycled a lot of paper and shredded some stuff, but the desk is visible, if not quite usable)
4. Watching stuff ("Shut Up & Sing," "Monk" on Hulu, "I'm Your Man" while I cleaned downstairs)
5. Eating French Fries (made in the oven, with yummy aioli, so good)
6. Going out to lunch (I've only done this once, but I think I'll do it again!)
7. Thinking about writing (I like to have a fresh start and a clean desk)
8. Making lists in my head (called "things to do" & "things not to forget")
9. Worrying (self-explanatory?)
10. Drinking (wine, beer, Izze sodas, iced tea, lemonade)
11. Laundry
12. Reading (two books finished today! Onward & upward!)
13. Getting organized (at least in my mind)
14. Having my blood drawn (this is in my top two things I hate the most & I can't remember the other one. Plus I have a big bruise now)
15. Oh, I have been running. And I swam once. And my knee hurts. So there's that)

I hope y'all have been as wildly unproductive in the first days of summer vacation as I have. I'm looking forward to it being hot enough that the pool opens.
