To-dos and wishlists

I haven't officially made a to-do list, but I have two lists running in my head so I thought I would share.

There are only two things we need to do to the house: fix where the ex-dog chewed the door frame to pieces going to the garage and finish putting up wood blinds in the bedrooms. I figure a plywood replacement would do nicely for the door frame, and even though I abhor a certain discount store, it does have the best selection of blinds. I'm waiting on my dad and his handy tools to take care of the door, and just haven't mustered up the mental strength to go to that store I hate so much.

Then there is the wishlist. My home improvement store's Web site has a wishlist feature that lets you save the things you'd like, but can't buy.

I was doodling last night and added: a push lawn mower, a brush cutter, glass tile mosaics (for the bathrooms, that are now the only rooms with vinyl), retaining wall blocks (for the grand scheme in the back yard), and a beautiful new bathroom vanity/sink/mirror combo.

On a separate note, it's really fun to see Brad get so excited about home improvements. He watches the flipping shows on TV with me and likes to talk about what we'll do. Here I thought it would be a hobby of mine while he did, I don't know, something with sports. It's a nice surprise.
