Project Management: Constructing My Plans

        As I was overwhelmed with this weekend's little projects I did with our office table and the sink cabinets in the kitchen and bathrooms my head just keeps on thinking endlessly of future projects to do. It's like an automatic routine requiring nothing but a glance of whatever is seen in the house. Oh boy, this could be an early sign of addiction wouldn't you agree? Well, if it is...I don't want to stop. 
        Every single spot in our lovely home seemed to be a potential candidate for a make-over or an upgrade or a replacement. It's just fantastic to visualize the goals in seconds. It sounds a little creepy but it's true. This adrenaline is so motivated I could only stop when I need to sleep or tend to our toddler or cook for our meal or clean the house. Oh..and of course when I'm at work. (But even at work, this lady's brain cells just keep going.) 
         Not that it's a super genius idea but I thought a good listing will definitely set the first steps. This is my way of instilling in my head that they MUST be done. 
         I absolutely have a long way to go but smiles to those that I have struck through. Yipee!!! That's what my productivity rate is. ;-) 


Here is my goals' list. 

1. Create a menu plan (DIY  recipe cards from sister-in-law Lanie...thanks much for this...I finally thought of where and how to use and make it)

2. Re-categorize the filed documents (get rid of that old filing cabinet) 

3. Re-arrange the bed in the master's bedroom to create more space. De-clutter the office.

4. Re-arrange Jaida's books. Buy  bookends from Ikea or create a new one.   (another make-over is yet to come for her room...stay tuned on this....i am uber excited for it!)

5. Buy the hang-in shoe rack from Walmart 

6. Remove installed hanging caddy (the one used for hanging towels)  in the master's restroom and replace with 

that wood one in the shed. Paint it gold. 

7. (Maybe)  install a holding wood on top of the toilet bowl to put in some face towels/or small towels.

8. Paint the inside of the medicine cabinet? or maybe take the medicine cabinet out? 

9. Take cabinets out of Jaida's room?  (probably not) 

10. Re-make the document filing (print out new labels and re-file documents...update...place old docs in the ring binder and file in the garage) 

11. Create the picture collage on the cork board posted in the garage by the wall  (this is another DIY project I can't wait to show...I will make that cork board a nice treat.) 

13. Print out current pictures to put on the new collage picture frame that was a gift a year ago. (This should definitely be a 'must do'...that frame has been sitting for the longest time) 

14. Re-paint dining chairs and table. (I can't hide this excitement but this could be 2nd to my major project) 

15. Put handles on the clothes drawers in the master's bedroom. (A nice hardware it is...I've looked at Home Depot and they have lost of very good choices) 

....and my head just keeps on going. ;-) Planning could be very difficult at first specially when you look at the listing but...what's nice about it is it becomes my motivating factor that drives me to be consistent with the plan.  This may not show when exactly I shall start or finish but I am guided all through out and reminded of the things I need to work on.  

Do you have your own list of goals?? ;-)
