I told the HH this morning that this is the week I do all the things I meant to do this summer that I didn’t get around to doing. No excuses, no putting things off any longer. Just write up a list, put it on the fridge, put everything else on hold, AND GET IT DONE!
Life. Sometimes it’s full of distractions and we have to reel ourselves back in. This is one of those times. So here goes. Here’s my big list of all the things I’m going to get done this week.
By putting it here, for everyone to see, it’s going to hold me accountable.
Main Bathroom
- Buy a blind {and hang it} because paper bags are SO last year. 😉
- Paint window trim
- Get all the goo off the bottom of the front of the tub where there used to be a piece of trim.
- Find some baskets {?} for the awkward laundry cubby
- Paint the bathroom door
- Order 2 knobs for the back of the bathroom door
- Paint the bathroom ceiling
- Hang the sailor print {that I bought last year!} on the wall
Canning Cupboard
- Make apple pie filling
- Make carrot cake jam
- Make marmalade
The Barn
- Take stars down and hang buoys from the rafters {going to need help with this one!}
- Clear out {except Lobster House decorations} and tidy up the second level of the barn
Outside
- Stain the back deck
Level 3
- Paint closets
- Get all the clothing off the spare bed and into the closet
- Tidy up the room
Wool Things
- Post a new video on youtube
- Make up kits/draw patterns for new design
- Cut, stack, bundle wool that has been dyed
Odds and Ends
- Wash the old slipcovers
- Buy a “Maine” sweatshirt
- Delete 500 photos from my phone
- Clear my inbox
- Paint the soon to be “gallery” wall
- Change gallery wall outlets from almond to white
- Make my own Van Gogh paint by number kit {the “custom kit” price + shipping is way too high}
- Plus 5 other secret mini projects that I’m going to write on the bottom of this after I print it out and put it on the fridge.
This is the week I get all those pesky little projects done! No more excuses.
Okay, gotta go. I’ve got work to do!
Peace out,

You must be the energizer bunny. Don’t knock yourself out over this list. That’s an awful lot to do! Good Luck!
