An actual post from me? Wait, what? đ I have so many ideas of things I want to share, so I figured I'd use this space to do so! I used to post something every week, and while I probably won't do that, my goal is to put something out at least once a month, or maybe every other week? Stay tuned to find out! đ
Anywho! Lets talk about FUN!
I think as adults, we're so busy with the day to day of life, we forget about the importance of fun. How often do you do something just because for the simple joy of it? I know personally I don't make a point of it nearly enough! But really, if we're not taking time to have fun, are we really living??
This summer I'm going to be more intentional about adding in play and fun! Life is way too short to only be checking things off our lists, work, eat, sleep, rinse and repeat.
I've seen other people share Summer Buckets lists, so this isn't a new idea, but I thought it would be fun to come up with my own personal list - some of these things I used to do in the summer (be childlike and play!), some things I like to do and would love to do again, or some that I've wanted to try - why not do them this summer?? (NOTE: As it's going to be HOT this week, I'm definitely including some indoor fun ideas too!) Updating as I go along, so I'd love to see some of your ideas in the comments!
