Summertime Begins

(Cue music...)Summertime, summertime, sum, sum, summertime...

If you're a faculty member in higher education, that's the song you're probably singing right about now. Unless you're one of the unlucky few who is teaching summer school. But this year, I'm one of the few, the proud, the off all summer.

Unfortunately, I've discovered recently that being off isn't all it's cracked up to be.

I sat down and compiled a list of things I'd like to get done this summer, and there's not enough summer to get it all done!

So here are my top 10 items. If you think something should be added, feel free to comment.

1. Submit my research for publication.
2. Map out at least two more articles for publication.
3. Submit article to SWECJMC for fall presentation.
4. Submit article to CMA research contest.
5. Update my blog weekly--see I didn't forget you!
6. Paint the shed.
7. Paint the fence.
8. Go to St. Petersburg, FL for CMA Workshop.
9. Take weekend trips often--how do you define often?
10. Prepare Rambler for Multimedia conversion.

Here's hoping for a successful summer!
