With the pandemic restrictions still in place, keep backup plans in place for all extended travel. Cruises, street festivals, and other summer events may or may not take place as planned. Alternative options might be a TV movie night, a trip to feed the ducks at the city park, or a day trip searching out VW Bugs in various colors. The winner can choose the next trip's destination!
What's your sport? (Or, as we sometimes joke, what's your poison?) Pick an outside activity you can follow through on for the summer. Walk to the corner each morning. Ride your bike to the park. Do jumping jacks on the back porch as the sun comes up. The fresh air and a connection with nature will keep you energized. Aim for at least 30 minutes a day!
As June kicks into gear, things may knock your summer plans awry. Be flexible. If your kids go off line, work with them. Think in "I want you to ..." terms, not in a "This happens every time ..." fashion. Have a discussion. Be realistic. Give your kids imput. If both of you adjust your expectations, you'll ease frustration all around.
Post house rules for the upcoming summer. Maybe it's shoes off at the front door. You decide. Post penalties for each infraction and FOLLOW THROUGH. This will be your best summer ever!
