Blog: Summer NOT To Do List

During the year there are so many things To Do, why not have a NOT To Do list for the summer? A close friend and I brainstormed a NOT To Do List for our website over a cup of coffee the other evening at the new Starbucks in Eldersburg. We had such a fun time creating the list that I couldn't help myself from sharing it here too! 

Here are the things we are NOT going to do this summer. What are you NOT going to do? 

We pledge NOT to…

1. Tolerate bare toenails
2. Skip out on the marshmallow topping
3. Invite stink bugs to the picnic this year
4. Belly flop (ouch!)
5. Wear Yankee blue to cheer on ‘dem Os
6. Eat dinner inside on a cool, breezy night
7. Be satisfied with only one scoop at
8. Say “No” to jumping the puddles
9. Keep the fireflies in the jar overnight
10. Forget the spare bike tube, again
11. Let any produce spoil the in the garden (we vow to share early and often)
12. Leave the fireworks early to beat the traffic
13. Turn on the TV when we could instead go to the pool
14. Let a single crab go to waste (hand me that mallet!)
15. Step on a pop-top, blow out a flip-flop
16. Hesitate inviting friends over because the house is a mess
17. Read anything serious, "beach books" here we come!
18. Hold the safety bar on the firehall carnvial rides
19. Forget to put sunblock on the tops of our feet
20. Miss an opportunity to view the sunset over our beautiful country rolling hills!
