While everyone else is looking forward to 2024, I’m over here looking back at November! Once again my best intentions got waylaid, and my “favorites” post took a backseat for a while. Some good things happened in November, though, and I’m here now to write about them!
Hey, hey, hey! It’s the last day of November, and I haven’t even posted my OCTOBER favorites yet! What? I know! What happens anyway? It’s like as soon as October hits, somebody starts spinning the hands of the clock faster. Right? Anyway, I actually started this post earlier this month, but then other stuff got in the way. So here we are…once again catching up. Well, come on, let’s do it!
That’s right! I’m posting a seasonal bucket list. Haven’t done this since 2019 best I can tell. Here’s the thing. I feel like I’m just pretty much sliding through the days with no real direction. There are things I think I SHOULD do, things I think I NEED to do…but basically, none of them are getting done. Part of me says, “Hey, I’m retired. I’ve earned the right to do what I want.” But the better part of me says, “Hey! You’re wasting your days away! Get with the program!”
I created this bucket list a couple of weeks ago, and at first I thought I would post it, but then I thought, no one cares…I’ll just do it without posting. Okay, so I’ve done a couple of them, but I’m now feeling that I need something to push me to be accountable and keep moving forward. That’s what I’m hoping creating this post will do!
So here you have it…my Fall 2023 bucket list:
Happy October 1st! A little sad to see September over, but looking forward to some cooler temperatures soon! With this post, I bid September farewell by remembering some of my favorite moments/events of the month.
I’m linking up with Shaeffer and Shay today! They host What’s Up Wednesday every month on the last Wednesday of the month. The format follows the same set of prompts each month, and by the end of the post, you are pretty much up to date on what’s been happening in our neck of the woods the past week or two. Let’s begin!
This post could just have easily been titled “Our August Trip to Vilnius” since that’s the topic I am covering the most. My August was pretty ordinary until the day for that trip arrived. I do have two other favorites, though, so I’ll start with them. Here we go!
Not a whole lot of favorites to share from July. The oppressive heat kept us inside a lot, but it still seems like the month went by pretty fast. And just as the month went by fast, this post will also be pretty quick!
When I quite belatedly posted my May Favorites, I believe I wrote that I would be back in a few days to post my June Favorites. Do 13 days qualify as “a few” days? I guess they’ll HAVE to! Let’s look back at June!
I SHOULD be posting my June Favorites right now, but seeing as how I never got around to posting my May Favorites, those will take precedence instead! So since there’s already been TOO MUCH ado, without FURTHER ado, let’s get to it! Read more
April! What a fabulous month! Seeing as how it’s the first week of May now, it’s time to look back at highlights from the previous month. March is when Spring begins, but it seems that April is when Spring starts really showing off! Read more
