If you've followed this blog for awhile, you might recall that I have a knack for creating lots of lists, especially seasonal to-do lists! Since it's summertime, though it doesn't really feel like it just yet, I thought I'd take some time to consider a few things I'd like to get accomplished during the sweltering months ahead. Here are a few in no particular order:

• Go to the pool at least once or twice
• Eat my weight in snow cones (okay, not literally)
• Buy one new swimsuit or swimsuit item
• Somehow manage to get a tan (even though I work 8 hours a day indoors)
• Take a long weekend road trip 
• Go to the Farmer's Market
• Read at least 3 books (I've definitely fallen off the "reading for fun" bandwagon lately)
• Get a new blender and perfect margarita making skills
• Invest in a really fun cooler or tote
• Buy a new pair of cheap, but flattering, sunglasses (because I've been putting off replacing my perfect, albeit broken pair)
• Make a summer playlist
• Buy something, whether it be soap, a candle, or a car air freshener, that smells like a tropical getaway (think pineapple, coconut, and mango!)
• Eat more fresh fruit and drink more water (summer is the perfect time to do so!)
• Keep fresh, just-because flowers in the house at some point
• Save $$$ (because soon it'll be like "Merry Christmas! Here's the bill for your $40,000 student loan debt!")
• Grill out at least once
• Get my new apartment feeling like "home"
• Watch fireworks with my favorite people
• Make more time for working out
• Take more pictures and videos
