Summer Goals

I know, I do this every year and unfortunately, I don't always get them done.


But, hey, this year is going to be different, I can feel it!


Can't you?


OK, maybe the heat is getting to me, but I am making a list anyway.

Things I plan to do this summer.

1.  Make a patio under the deck.

2.  Do some painting at moms.

Needs updating.

3.  Take some time just for me.

Last summer was so hectic and just plain crazy, so this summer I am

definitely going to do some relaxing.

Well, that's it, I know it's not really much of a list but I want to make sure I really get them done.  So this way, the pressure isn't so great.

Making List

I use to never make lists, I just didn't I guess I didn't think I really needed a list.  (You know the type, those people that never forget anything.)  I certainly was not that type of person, but I just didn't think I needed a list to tell me what to do.

Guess what?  I really do need a list.  It's not that I can't get things accomplished but I have figured out that when I have a list, I can actually get a lot more done. 

Weird, huh?  

So anyway I decided to make a project list.  I am not going to put a time frame on them becuase one of them is a really big project that I just don't know when it will be completed because it will probably cost more than I really want to think about.

But here goes.

1.   Coffee table re-do.  
      This was a freebie that a friend was getting rid of and I can't wait to make it over.

2.  Head board for Baby Girl.
     Now, I have to say, she doesn't know anything about this and she doesn't really think  
     she  needs a headboard, but that is just one of the many reasons I had kids, so that I
     could show them who the boss is.


3.  Basement Makeover.
     When we built our house (15 years ago)  we didn't finish the basement.  This has constantly 
     been on our list of things to do, and while we have made a few changes, we still have concrete
     floors and cinder block walls.  


4.  Kitchen Makeover.
     I have a dream of tearing out the wall between my kitchen and dining room and opening it up 
     into the  living room.  I know, it's just a dream but maybe one day.


What projects are you working on?
