Summer is Halfway Over – How to Make Up for Lost (Summer) Time!

by Leave a Comment

How to Make Up for Lost (Summer) Time

Memorial Day – That’s over! Summer Solstice – Happened. The Fourth of July – Gone too. (Memorial Day was seven weekends ago—go ahead, count ‘em.)

How can I make up for lost (summer) time when summer is halfway over?

Where the heck did it all go?

Do you remember “endless summers”? Just barely, huh? Apparently, that’s not a thing anymore.

I know you’ve got to remember how awesome summers used to be, right? And they lasted FOOOOR-EVVVV-ERRR. That is until you grew up and joined the real world. But man, those were the days.

It’s now way too easy to let a perfectly good summer slip by.

In our go-go-go, more-more-more, now-now-now world most of us won’t even notice we’re halfway through summer 2022. How can we try to make up for lost summertime now? Don’t be the person that’s way too busy for summertime fun.

So, to give credit where credit is due, a cruise ship full of you is on vacation. I can tell, online readership had dropped like a brick strapped to the back of a fish-diving pelican. Good for you… that’s what I’m saying… 

Grab a good book and a beach and you’re doing summer right!

But if you’re shocked by hearing that summer is halfway over, I’m going to share a trifecta of the best summer-themed LifeUntucked® posts just in time to help you save your summer and make up for lost (summer) time.

How’s that sound? Cool.

And now for the Best of LifeUntucked®posts –

Here’s the first and my favorite,

“Summer’s almost over! How did that happen and what can I do now?”

As I read Seth Godin’s post, “Summer’s almost over,” a memory of my mom immediately came to mind. I could hear her saying those exact words Seth used about this time every year. As I started to read— BAM! He was sharing the exact same memory I had. I guess that’s what “Summer-Moms” do.

Check it out here or click on the title.

Number 2 (No, no, no… I mean the second one) is…

“How to Do Summer Right.”

It’s a classic list post. When it comes to questions like “how do I make up for lost (summer) time?” this one is chock full of summer-saving ideas.

Check it out here or click on the title.

And the third is,

“You Can Still Have a Great Summer, Here’s How.”

I wrote this one in the midst of the pandemic. We needed a workaround for a summer when there was so much we simply had to forego. Even so, we dug in and found a way.

If you’re still experiencing some of the leftover effects of two plus years of COVID interfering with our lives—then most of these ideas will still apply and help you have a real summertime experience.

You guessed it, check it out here or click on the title.

It blew me away this morning when I realized that summer 2022 was halfway over. I hope I didn’t shake things up too much for you either. But I’m pretty sure you’ll thank me later for giving you a summer-saving kick in the pants.

So, I hope you’re having an awesome summer, my friend.

Be untucked.

p.s. I can’t help myself. Here’s a bonus summertime post with an admittedly wacky idea… The Fool-Proof Challenge for an Amazing Summer
