“We have a room in our house that we’ve been wanting to remodel for the last three years but haven’t done it. It’s a master suite that’s attached to our bedroom. This is a completely selfish endeavor on my wife’s and my behalf. We want it to be this really cool, moody study where we can hang out, read, write, play board games… It’s a room for us. If we can get that done this summer, that would make me very happy.”

“We’re actually not going anywhere. We’re staying put so we can spend time with our grandson. That’s on our to-do list.”

“I would love to travel abroad again before summer ends! I’m in a play and that has been so fun, so I’d love to see that through and then celebrate in some way.”

"I'm producing a short film, so I'm hoping to set the foundation for that. I’m also laying the groundwork to set up my animal sanctuary. I secured land in Missouri, which was once a working farm, and I’ve submitted the paperwork to change the land from a working farm to a non-profit organization. I don’t know if the land will be changed to a non-profit before the summer ends, but it is certainly my hope."

“I was just telling people today how proud I was of myself, because I went for a run yesterday and I haven't gone for a run in years. So that’s my goal for summer is to be more active; to get outside, do more hikes, run and go on walks. I had felt a little stagnant, so it’s been the nice little rejuvenating tick of energy that I've needed, and I just want to continue that.”

“This might sound boring, but I’m in a place where I'm trying to figure out a better morning and night routine. That’s one goal I have. And for funsies, I want to go to the beach. I haven't been to the beach in a long time, so I’m going to try to get myself out there.”

“I’m trying to get a screenplay finished. It’s very hard to do that in the summer, because it’s so tempting to go outside all the time instead of locking yourself in a dark room and staring at a blank page. But I’m really trying to use the fact that we’ve had a few more dark weeks to get it done. I’ve got a good momentum going, so I’m hoping it will be finished by the end of summer.”
