10 things I May do this Summer

I love old school blogging and there was a lot of talk on social media about how its not the same anymore. Well I am here to tell you that it is the same for a few of us. I have not strayed away from blogging old school in any shape or form and to make sure that I don’t I am joining in on a neat little blog challenge that I found via Living outside the stacks. It’s called the 10 on the 10th. On the 10th of every month there is a prompt and you just do the prompt and give your take on it. This month’s theme 10 things I may do this Summer since its May. I love it and here are 10 things I may do (let’s hope I can at least do half the list lol)

10 things I May do this Summer

May has always been a month of ups and downs for me ever since I was a little girl. I used to say May was one of the worse months for me out of the year. Now that I’m older I realize it’s what I make it out to be because there is good in everything…I just had to find it. So this May has been crazy so far there was a wild boar running through my backyard, I found a company to finally push my candles out (I hope), I am booked for photoshoots, and I got back to my walking. Cheers to the rest of May because it’s going to be a good one.

  • I may get on a plane

I’ve never been on one. The prices are horrible but I think it’s time to nip this fear in the butt. I have seen the prices and I’m like well shat this is a one of the reasons I do road trips. It’s much cheaper than all 3 of us getting on a plane but we will see.

  • I may get serious about one of these dating apps

I’ve been playing around with these apps putting up catfish pics and not my real picture. I think it’s time to really get serious about dating and see what’s left out here. I think the introvert in me loves that you can date online but the fear in me is like are these folks crazy. I’ve dated a few guys though that aren’t online and 2 of them stick out but I’m keeping my options open

  • I may do a tik tok

I’ve been on reels and my son does a good job for me but I have yet to post on tik tok. I am on tik tok but I only use it to browse and watch funny videos. I may do a video or two over the Summer

  • I may join a gym

I hate exercising but I know that I need to do it. I think mentally it’s hard for me but I will have about 5 hours back of my time (kids not in school) so I can use at least one of those hours to hit the gym. I’m thinking planet fitness or L.A. fitness which one do you think is better?

  • I may buy a new coffee machine

I have the Keurig now and I like it but I am not a huge fan of it. I don’t feel I get the umph that I need. I have been eyeing this one.

  • I may read some new books

I love reading it takes me to a whole new world but I’ve gotten away from it lately. I’m back on it for the Summer and my goal is to read at least one new book a week. Y’all hold me to it I may do a book review on my blog to hold myself accountable for it.

  • I may clean think about getting a fence for my backyard

I have been on the fence about this (see what I did there) I hate when they turn colors but I’ve been told that I can always stain the fence to keep it a nice color so I may look into getting a privacy fence put up.

  • I may buy a flower and attempt to keep it alive

I don’t think this will happen but I am going to remain optimistic. I may do the snake plant I’ve heard that was easy but I admit I killed that too last year.

  • I may try something new with photography

I’ve always been fascinated with documentary photography so I may do a photography project and see what I can do. I love Kaleen who is my personal documentary photographer here in Atlanta. She has done our first day of school photos and I may get her to do a shoot when my son has his friends over before we do his 16th birthday trip.

  • I may learn how to do makeup

I’ve been saving youtube channels and trying but it’s harder than it looks. I need hands on training for basic makeup so I can look put together on days I have events.

So there is my list of 10 things I may do this Summer. Join me and tell me 2 things that you may do this Summer.

    I’m so happy that you joined up. I miss the old school blogging days and realized that for all my talk, I’d moved away from it too. This brings me back.

    I had to call my daughter to ask her how to set my pictures to music on Instagram. LOL I am not ready for Tik Tok or Reels.

    I love documentary photography and would love to give it a try. There’s something about the storytelling and the emotional connection that draws me in every time. I hope you get a chance to shoot.

    Good luck with the dating apps. I know of a few couples who met and married. And a few who were like “Let me back away slowly. No sudden movements.”
