ReplyDeletewowee! I am overwhelmed by your list! Sometimes my husband and I try to make a list like that for our house but I just end up getting freaked out by all there is to do! Just remember- you are never really done so make enjoying it as you go the bigger goal :)
ReplyDelete@ Brooke & @E@Oh!Apostrophe - It's really not THAT bad :) It's mostly little things...and there is less than 50 items, so we would only need to do 1/week. And there is no guarentee we'll get everything done; but we can sure try!
ReplyDeleteQuite a list but looking forward to reading about each task! :)
ReplyDeleteYour list is as long as the one in my head. I decided to only officially proclaim a few of them as goals so I don't fell overwhelmed like last year. A lot of yours are fairly easy to do like buying lamps and stools.
ReplyDeleteI suggest a Painting Party in the Summer :-)
ReplyDeletea busy year for sure - enjoy checking everything off the list!
