Come along with me as I share a summer fun activity checklist, wellness ideas, and tasty fun food recipes. Any of them can brighten
the day, no matter the season or where you live.
Most of the checklist items can be completed solo. Others can
be done with a buddy or partner, and some will appeal to a brood of kids or
grandkids. All are inexpensive or free, and need no fancy equipment.
This list works well for me, especially since my husband and I will be staying close to home this summer. The numbers of cases of COVID-19 is still rising in our state.
Look at the checklist to see which ones interest
you. I’m sure many of these pastimes will put a smile on your face, and be appreciated by your mates as well.
