Yes, it's been a while. The PC got a virus and I was offline for a while. Still don't have things totally cleared up, which sucks.
Also, I suck at summer planning. Just realized El B has 2.5 weeks of summer vacation left, part of which is already blocked off for a sleepover at Grandma's, and we haven't really done anything this summer. We've left the county twice, for pete's sake, both times for trips to my parents'. (Not what you'd call a "vacation" at all.)
That list of fun local stuff to do? Didn't do any of it. I planned to go on campus to the college's art & archaeology museum, but I realized tonight that classes start next week and parking will be a crazy mess.
The box of craft kits and list of fun little projects? Totally forgotten. We did one, and it's still unfinished. Our main accomplishment has been 3 sets of caterpillars from his Live Butterfly Garden. Wow. Oh, and he saw two movies - Cars 2 and the new Winnie the Pooh movie.
He spent most of his summer watching TV, and it makes me feel like s**t because it's my fault.
We didn't go to the farmers' market, the park, the museum, the zoo (okay, 3 hour drive, but still), nothing. I didn't even manage to call his best pal from preschool for a playdate yet.
I suck.

Nice Post!I would like to know more about your blog.
oh! I totally feel the same way. I had planned to take Toddler to the beach, to the pool, to the park a lot, etc. I had planned to email some of the other moms from his Mother Goose class to arrange playdates.
We've done some stuff, but most of it was organized by other moms and we were invited along.
I'm hopeful I can do more with the fall - maybe a visit to a pumpkin patch?
