They weren’t kidding when they said that the job search is tough right now. In between applying for the few jobs that are out there, I’ve been up to my chin with projects. I LOVE projects.
So here are 13 items on my project list
- A photo collage for Janet.
I’ve got all the required tools and supplies. It’s just a matter of getting it done.
- Thank you cards.
I was so good about getting my thank you cards out for the shower, but I’ve been a little delayed on the wedding ones. For good reason, I’m printing photos to go into every thank you card and then I had to find big enough cards. Now that I’ve got all I need, it’s just a matter prioritizing.
- New web site design and implementation.
A friend of a past client of mine suggested me for this great new web design project. Waiting for a signed contract.
- Design web site for my cookin’ cousin.
- Start new blog similar to my shopping blog A Girl Must Shop, but even BETTER!
- Create a resume site for myself.
- Declutter and reorganize my “office/closet”.
My husband
is buying me an elliptical and I need to make room for it in my room. This means lots and lots of cleaning.
- Crafts.
I had so much fun crafting for the wedding, that I’m going to try some new ones like tile and marble pendants and magnets, jewelry, bulletin boards, etc. Along with my trusty sidekicks – mom and BFF. The sky’s the limit.
- The gahden.
I”m totally not a green thumb. Or I haven’t been, but apparently it’s genetic. My gram is a huge gardener, as is my mum and sis and MIL and BFF. So, along with motivation from new husband, i’ve planted bulbs, annuals, herbs, veggies and plenty of flowers. My rose bush(es) are kicking bootie, too!
- The basement.
This should be more than one item on the list since it includes organizing and purging our storage areas and setting up a little craft nook in the basement bedroom.
- De-wallpaper
We bought our house about 3 years ago, I think and we still have 90% of the really terrible wallpaper on the walls. I bought a wallpaper steamer with a wedding gift card from Home Depot today and I am going to kick that wallpaper’s butt!
Paint.
I have to tell you kids, I LOVE to paint. There’s just something about the finite details and how a new coat of paint can transform an area. Picking out colors for my room (closet/office/soon-to-be-gym).
- Read, relax, improve thyself.
If you had unlimited time, what projects would you take on?

I’m looking forward to #s 1, 2, 4, 5, 8 and the fruits of 9!
What you don’t want to help de-clutter, de-wallpaper and paint? Lol!
Busy, busy, busy! It must be that new bride nesting instinct kicking in. You Go Girl! And Have Fun!
I love projects too. And kudos again on your marriage.
Wow … seems like you’re going to be VERY busy for quite some time. Enjoy them all ;–)
Hugs and blessings,
Goodness!! I thought I was busy, but I got nothing on you!!
Good luck on the job hunt!
I’ve been decluttering for months now, but am still up to my eyebrows in clutter. But I remain hopeful that one of these days I will be out from under too.
I need to make a real list like you. it might inspire me to get more done.
I just posted to my blog group yesterday that if I work really hard I might get to where I’m just two days behind.
Have a great weekend.
I’m exhausted just reading your list. Note to self~Find HER energy! Great list!
I love to paint….we just finished our exterior this past week. Wish now I had something else to paint. Love the summery colors you’ve to choose from. And, #5….love the concept, not to mention the title!! I so agree.
My post is up. Come on over and see some odd creatures. You’ll be amazed. Happy Thursday.
I’m tired just reading that!
Loved the smiley after “husband”!
I’m with ya. My list is a mile long. It’s so much easier to just do this
I would be taking on my closets that so need work!
Felicitations! Wishes of joy, bliss, comfort and passion! Have fun with your projects, too.
Whew! That list made me tired just reading about it!!! Good luck getting all that accomplished!
I agree! Lots of projects, wish I had the energy
I always have a long projects list! Feels great to get it done and check it off.
Wow! You have a lot to do! But it’s good to put it to paper and then work towards fruition. Personally, I love to paint too. Painting is really one of the simplest ways to transform a room. Good luck on accomplishing all of your projects!
Sounds like you’ve got a lot of fun stuff planned
Seems like the basement isn’t the only item on the list that should count as more than one. You’ve got your work cut out for you.
