Five things to do

One of the magazines that periodically arrive at my doorstep advised me to come up with five things that are most important to me this summer and then make a plan to get them done - that way, you won’t overschedule with other things that prevent you from doing what you really want. Sound advice, considering that at least two of these items were on my mental list for last summer and never got checked off. 1. Finally buy a bike. I want to be one of those bike-riding people! 2. Visit California; dip toes in Pacific Ocean. 3. Take a surf lesson (hoping to build on meager surfing skills acquired in Puerto Rico last year). 4. Take at least one overnight weekend trip outside the city. 5. Find art for unadorned apartment walls. Also, get deck chairs, plants and other manner of apartment fix-uppery.
