Vacation Week (Final)

Sunday afternoon (Final) - Vacation week - Watch for recaps of the vacation all next week, complete with photos. Watch Flickr for even more photos (and even more still to be uploaded). If none of the photos show us, then you need to sign-in to Flickr. And if that doesn't show us, then we need to invite you. Email us.

I'm continuing to extend items that don't need to be done as frequently as I'm now doing them and am toying with the idea of an item called "any time" for items that I'd like to get done during the week but not necessarily on a specific day. I don't know yet if it's a good idea or not so I'm not going to mess with it in the coming week, just think about it some more.

This week:

• Completed: 217 items
• Sunday: 0 items planned (19 items completed)
• Monday: 22+daily planned (28 completed)

• Sunday: 12 10+daily planned (34 completed - might include some from Saturday)

Thursday evening - Vacation week is rather nice. :) It's been slower than in past years and we've had to improvise, but it's been relaxing. To continue the vacation theme (not doing what you normally do - one I'm only sort-of holding to), Lori's mom came over and cleaned the kitchen, mopped some floors, vacuumed most of the house and cleaned the bathrooms.

Sunday evening - I made the week really small because it's vacation. However, I'm not sure it's small enough. I do need to share some items with Lori so that she can help me make sure they get done and others because her mom might ask which things would be the most helpful to help with.

The only major project on the list is working on the painted stripe in Ben's room. Lori painted the room so the top half is light blue and the bottom half sandy colored and then painted a sun and made some sailboats and hung them and some other surf-type items on the wall. Then we bought the chair rail and it sat in the garage for a year. And then we hung it up. And then Ben chewed on it. So we took it all down. I can't even remember how long ago that was. But I want to paint a white stripe to give at least the impression of the chair rail instead of the wavy blue, white and sandy bits that were supposed to be covered by the rail. Today Rachel and I taped a wall (and then retaped - stupid 3M Blue Tape is garbage these days) and I'm hoping to have time this week to patch some nail holes and paint at least the first wall.
