I know everyone has one…a list of distractions.  Like needing to go to the market, but having to stop at the post office first, the pet store and probably home depot.

•     clean out the shed (there are still things in there from the kitchen reno)
•     get gas for the pressure washer, lawn mower and weedwacker…(wait, I got a new battery operated weedwacker last year…woot!)
•     2 cycle oil (there’s the home depot trip)
•     finish cutting down the tree/bush/stump that’s outside my office window
•     rake up all the pine needles in the back yard (so I dont need to have them removed from the paw pads)
•     monkey balls…that’s all I am sayin…fucking monkey balls!
•     oil the grill (twice a year…(food grade) mineral oil on the stainless will prevent rusting)
•    cut the vines out of the trees near the creek (those damn things are killing all the trees back there)
•     order the table that goes with the glider

DONT FORGET to put the new registration in the car and the sticker on the plate…and get it inspected

I have a pretty big list for this spring/summer, but it’s time to get some estimates on the roof and get that done!

ok, so maybe I should call this the wish list of things I would like to do

starting with the front porch (I would really like to make it a screened in porch) but to make me happy this year, I would like to

replace the front window with a bay window
remove the old steps – replace with cement steps, add a railing
refresh the stucco under the porch
possibly refinish the porch and replace the railings and gate

have kevin (http://www.anthonytreeservice.com/) groom and possibly cut down some of the 6 pine trees that surround the shed

I’m sure there are more things that will get added to the list…one project at a time
