It's been awhile since I have had time to sit down and look at the progress I have made on my list. I made time Sunday, while sitting at the nursing home, to see what I have completed and what is in progress.
Done:
I am done with #24. I had these grand ideas of using tile to make the countertop of my kitchen island. That was until I figured out how much it was going to cost me to do that and how much time it would take to complete. I ended up buying a piece of laminate countertop and slapping it on top of the cabinets and calling it done. The cost of the countertop was $23, when compared to the cost of just the tile, which was $24, not including the backerboard I would need, the plywood for the base, grout and all the other things I would have to end up buying, the prefab countertop seemed the way to go. Now, the cabinet isn't going in the kitchen/dining room, it's going in the den to hold all my scrapbook stuff. But, it's done and that's all that matters.
#67: I kept my food log for a month and mailed it to my nutritionist. I somehow managed to gain weight. I think the world is working against me.
#74: I managed to get the drapes hung in my den while I was on vacation. Woo hoo! Now, I don't have to look at those ugly blinds anymore.
#94: I have decided to keep my car at the end of my lease, unless they can give me some great deal on a new car, or offer me a lease on a new vehicle. I really need to lower my payments, but I like my car, hopefully, if I go to a buying situation, my payments will go down.
In Progress:
#1: I have one more box to unpack in my den! I have thrown away so much stuff since I moved, it makes me mad that I moved it in the first place. I could have been unpacked sooner had I not has so much crap to go through.
#2: I have taken two loads of stuff to Goodwill in the last five days. Many people will benefit from my donations, or at least I hope they do.
#38: I have rolled over one 401k and I am in the process of rolling over the inheritance I have tied up in 401k's. Hopefully I will have it done soon.
#45: I have purged several items I don't need and won't use. Yeah, those items were included in the two loads I took to Goodwill!
#56: I have started to go through my scrapbook stuff and I have been able to get some of it paired together. Once I get the cabinet moved into the den, I will be able to organize it completely and scrapbook!
#81: I've feed the ducks two more times! I love feeding the ducks. They don't mind my stale, moldy bread or the fact that I go out on my deck in my PJ's with my hair a mess and wearing my glasses.
#84: I have a few socks that I think I may have matches for, but I haven't found them yet. I am giving myself until this weekend to find them or they are going to the trash.
So, that's my progress thus far!! TTFN, Diva
