Despite the next two weekends (possibly three) being taken up with various travels hither and yon, I thought I should update the “List” for the next few months.
Spring holdovers:
- Paint porch ceiling finally
Sow sunflower seedsBuy a bunch of cheap annuals and finish planting out the deck and porch containers (officially six more pots to plant!)- New living room window treatments – have the fabric and sewing machine, just need to jump in and get’er’done
Plus new summer projects:
The “Cloffice”: (awesome when I check things off before I even post the list!)
Paint and stencil closet;Install desktopInstall floating shelves etc- Look for inexpensive roman blinds
Baby related:
- Insulate and drywall garage (Nick is going to do at least part of this next week! YAY!)
- Paint nursery – official color scheme: black, white, and teal
- Decorate nursery
Other:
- Living room wall art rearrange
- Sell and replace existing coffee table (everyone who has ever tripped over this thing can thank me now – and that would be *everyone*!)
- Sell my now-empty desk
- Refinish hutch for buffet
And some more (wishful thinking?) ideas:
- New master headboard
- Revamp guest room headboard
- Address the newly barenekkid guest room window (for curtains – not the State of the Union…)
- Build potting bench
- Master bedroom built-ins (a spring to-do list holdover, but to be realistic, it probably belongs here instead of the immediate to-dos.)
Oh yeah, and I’ll be stuck on a business trip for the next few days, so I’ll have plenty of time to think of more projects. Let me just add for a moment…..that finding professional looking maternity outfits is one serious challenge. Hopefully everyone gives me a “pregnancy pass” for my attire…
