Time to get it done!
NICE list! :)
Yes ma'am...I'll get write to it! but first a full spa day.
Loving the full spa day :)!
Spa day for everyone! And then a nap.
Alex - Just the man for the job :)
Linda G - Cool.
Jan - First things first :)
Isis - Mmmmmmmmm...
Clarissa - Oh, yeah.
Love this list. Making a copy and handing to hubs. Taking off play tennis and replacing with dirt biking. Of course. : )
Yay for back to school! Nap times are the greatest. :)
I like that! Been working with my editor ion doing just that. And I'll remember number three later today!
I need a spa day too. When is that Mercury retrograde thing over? :)
Great list as always. Especially go for #2 and #3. Hope you have a great weekend.

Yay for all that! funny, though, in my world my teen and tween are gone a lot and so when I am home, it's relaxing (heck, they sleep until noon, too). Where during the school year, I have to get them here and there... wrestle with homework help... no... it's easier in summer in my world.
Oh, sigh. It sounds heavenly. I look forward to those school days. Heck, I look forward to the day I can go to the bathroom by myself again!
Bonnie - Whatever works for you!
Laura - Gotta rebuild stamina :)
Stephen - So will I!
LR - I think August 26 is the last day. So another week. Hang on!
Mason - Yes!
Hart - Well, then...back to work for you :)
Linda K - Don't get a dog or it will never happen!
Bubble bath -- awesome! :)
Since I no longer have kids at home I'm not affected in that respect, but since my wife's a teacher there are other considerations. Maybe now I can finish my manuscript as well.

Tossing It Out
Lisa - Yes. Sigh :)
Arlee - Something for everyone!
Works for me. This was always part of my "back to school" list when my kids were young. Freedom!
Wine wine WIIINNNNEEE!
Maryann - Yes!
Talli - Wine is wonderful :)
#9 definitely. If I never hear the Wiggles again, it will be too soon.
Yep, son started school yesterday. Summer is over. Time to get back to work -- after I enjoy the solitude for a day or two. :)
Julie - I totally get that!
L.G. - A new beginning for all :)
Yes, time ten.
:)
Lydia - LOL!
Awesome list! I have a feeling I'll be needing a pet to give me quizzical looks once my daughter starts kindergarten next year. This year she will only be going a couple hours, three days a week. Still, that amount of time seems massive right now!
I hope you get to accomplish your list!
Just don't drink too much wine during the day. ; )
What a perfect list! I love #10! Now both of my boys are away at school and the house is much cleaner and quieter. Could we trade? Good luck finishing your manuscript! Julie
Shannon - Babies grow up. The first short separations this year will probably be more traumatic than the Big K next year.
Theresa - Darn! How about beer :)
Empty Nest - I can always use lots of good luck. Thanks!
A bubble bath? Sounds wonderful!!
RaShelle - Positively decadent!
It really is time for me to get back to my manuscript - feels as if I'm a kid and have been on summer break. Perhaps this weekend at the cabin while everyone else is hiking....

Karen - I'm closing in on getting my structured writing schedule back after a wild summer.
Late to comment, but I had to say I love your Friday lists. I really love the questioning look from the pet, LOL, because that's exactly what our dog does when the boys aren't around.
Rula - I know...it's so sad sometimes. Others it's 'can I take a nap now?'
