Default What are you looking forward to?

Anything exciting coming up for you?

I just bought a ticket to see the Bob Dylan livestream concert Shadow Kingdom on 18th July! Can’t wait, hoping he does some songs from Rough and Rowdy Ways.

Thumbs up

I’m looking forward to my (and my husband’s) second vaccination at the end of the month…and going out to a fine restaurant a couple weeks after that.

In the near term, two classical music concerts (orchestra tomorrow evening and chamber music this Sunday). I have to admit, masks take some of the fun out of it, though.

I'm going to an open mic tonight. I'm looking forward to that.

Ah nice, break a leg! I am missing open mics more than anything else.

My Seniors graduate Friday. Always one of my favorite days of the year, and since last year's graduation was "virtual" because of the pandemic, this outdoor ceremony in person is going to be very, very good for my soul.

I’m looking forward to going back to university in September. Took a year out after graduating working full-time, will be going back to working part-time and studying an MSc in Construction Project Management.

Looking forward to hoping to getting out of the house for a couple of nights in July. Thinking of a hiking trip.

Squeezing the stuffings out of the married kid, next time I see him. Doubt I will get much in return, but that is okay. A small, indoor concert in August. Reading about other live music events. Attending anything I feel comfortable going to. The kid who has not flown the nest yet does not drive. I am sure she has plans for Mom's Taxi Service.

We're starting up the plant, soon ending nearly 3 months of 72 hour work weeks, 6 12 hour night shifts per week!

And soon after I leave shift work for a 40 hour per week day job! It's gonna be like retirement!

I'll be able to have 3 day weekends and start taking some of my 400+ hour backlog of vacation.

Opening weekend at Northstar Mountain Bike Park is this weekend, I have a day off and 3 days of lift tickets in pocket, and a couple of buddies joining. Looking forward to avoiding visiting the hospital in Truckee.

I may upgrade the drivetrain of my new bike. Does that count?

I just bought a new boat so looking forward to fun on the water this Summer. We just booked a Valentine’s Day, 2022 trip to Jamaica with our favorite travel buddy couple.

The big one is my planned retirement Q1 next year….
