May Bucketlist

 

As I have mentioned in my mood board post, I would like to enjoy the sun a bit more in May. Carefully of course and with lots of sunscreen because the sun is stronger than we sometimes think, and we have to take care of our skin.

Long walks by the lake

I have told you all about the “fitness” trail we have in our neighborhood that is around a lake. I would like to make use of that trail more and get some exercise in. It’s a beautiful trail especially during sunset when the sun reflects off the lake and before it gets hotter I would really like to spend more time there.

Eating outside

Again, fitting with the theme of being outside more I want to eat some meals outside, we have a massive oak tree in our backyard that is providing shade, and I would love to eat outside enjoying the view of the ducks in our pond.

Feeding the Ducks

Talking about ducks, I would like to get back to feeding our neighborhood ducks. I used to do it all the time until I had to take my bird feeder down for Milton and just never put it back up. So, my morning routine wasn’t the same anymore, so the ducks moved on. But I still love them, and they love bird seed, I even bought duck feed for them 😊 Definitely want to get back to fostering the relationship with the ducks.

Photography

I pulled my DSLR camera out of the closet as I wish to take photography back up. I use my phone camera a lot, but I want to see what I can accomplish with my “big” camera. And with the ducks, turtles and now bald eagles that hang around our back pond, what better time to start than now?!

Flower Bouquet

It’s been a while since I have had a flower bouquet in the house and I think it is time to get one, to liven up the house a bit and to put on our table before our big gaming table is coming back. A last hoorah to our current table haha

Walking barefoot in the grass

I used to walk barefoot all the time but some time I just stuck to wearing socks and shoes (no shoes in the house lol) but I would really love to ground myself a little bit and just enjoy the tickles of the grass on my feetsies. Standing outside, in the sun, eyes closed with bare feet in the grass is something so simple yet special too. It can be relaxing and feel renewing. Especially if the wind is a paid actor and the breeze sweeps through as well. Perfect to take some deep breaths and let the anxiety be washed away. The more I talk/write about it the more I realize how much I am missing doing this.
