Summer #Adulting

The term Adulting is often used to describe something adults do.  For example: Going to the bank, working, cooking dinner, getting an oil change.  As a teacher, I am trying to fill up my summer with productive things so I do not fall into a NETFLIX TRAP.      In June I started to see these things floating around Facebook.

Parents will use this to keep kids away from technology.   I think it is brilliant.  I was thinking it would be wise for me to create one for Adults. Here is my list:

#Adulting Choices

Read

Exercise

Balance checkbook/Pay bills

Clean and/or organize something

Work on lesson plans for next year

Play with my dog

Do errands (bank/ grocery store/ etc.)

Try a new recipe

Call a friend

Spend time with a friend

Listen to/watch a sermon

Journal

I choose 5  #Adulting choices each day that I must finish BEFORE I turn on the TV.    This list has done an excellent job of keeping me from getting bored and wasting my summer away.   Each day I am busy until 1 or 2 in the afternoon.  Sometimes I multi-task.  For example, I had to get some work done on my car and I brought a book to read.  

Have you ever used something like this to help keep you away from technology/TV?
