Not doing so well...

1) Fix the painting in my bedroom. (I've taken the painters tape in the bedroom. That's as far as I've gotten)

2) Make a new embroidery sign for Christmas décor

·         Done. Photo below.

3) Paint an accent wall in my office at work. (Not gonna happen)

4) Go up to Flagstaff or Sedona to spend some time in the snow. (Not gonna happen)

5) Finish another movie curriculum. (Not gonna happen)

6) Read two more books.

·         Don’t Waste Your Life by Piper. Done.

·         Mad Church Disease by Anne Jackson. About 3/4 done

7) Try at least 4 of the things here: http://pinterest.com/stephanienels/houshold-tips/

·         Corkboard inside my cabinets

·         Homemade Laundry Detergent

o   Verdict: I’m not entirely sure it works as well, so I may do some recipe adjustments for the next batch. But I also tried the dry mix. I like it MUCH better than the liquid. Easier to make, less messy and seems to lasts longer.

·         Homemade counter top cleaner

o   I don’t sure how “clean” it makes my counter tops (though I did read that rubbing alcohol works as a disinfectant,) but it definitely makes them smooth!

·         Saving a drawer by using a mag holder for your saran wrap and ziplock bags

o   This was a “two birds with one stone” for me. I saw how someone took a box, cut it and covered it with paper to make a virtually free magazine holder. So I did both. J

 8) Clean out the garage. Done

9) Get my address book in order. In process/

·         I started using Google Docs for this, once I found a free address book template online.

10) Finish decorating my home office (I did some furniture re-arranging, but that's it)

11) Finish changing out all the polished brass doorknobs in my house. Done

12) Fix my weedeater. Done
