Do y'all remember doing those "What I did on my summer vacation" reports in elementary school? I do, and I hated them. My parents weren't big on... well, anything really. The last little trip we took was the summer before kindergarten to the Mississippi Gulf Coast for a day. Often, my "What I did" report would consist of little more than going to stay with my grandmother during the day and the occasional family reunion. I always said that when I got older I would have an exciting life full of stories of adventure. Yet here I am, years removed from the classroom, and my summers are pretty much the same, with the exception of going to Big Momma's house every day (because now I get to go to work... fun fun!) Another summer is drawing to a close and I can't say that I've had a getaway with the boo or the girls, or even a staycation for that matter. That dream of big trips, good times with friends and relaxing moments alone in exotic locales is still a goal, just one that I haven't achieved yet. But I can say that this summer I sold my parents' house, got a promotion (still waiting on that raise though), started making steps to my next big career goal, got out to more events in and around Jackson and started working towards being a healthier Tori D. Not the relaxing fun summer some have had, but not bad in my opinion!
So ladies and gents, what would your "What I did on my summer vacation" report sound like? What do you wish you could say about your summer?
