Meh…

I have a (want)to-do list a mile long for this four day weekend, yet the weather has put me out of the mood to do any of it. It’s rainy and breezy out, it won’t surprise me if the fireworks get canceled tonight since it is supposed to be this way all day.

To Cook:

• I want to ‘learn’ to use the charcoal grill. Mainly for me, this has to do with the amount of charcoal to use. I bought a whole chicken, two pork steaks and a steak.
• I want to make the bread recipe from my new book ‘Artisan Bread in Five Minutes A Day’.
• I want to make homemade pizzas to freeze.

To Do Outside:

• Clean the garage (mainly I just need to take the canning stuff back to my parents’ house and sweep it out, I reorganized all of Ryan’s stuff in there awhile back).
• Weed the garden and plant the celery (if it isn’t too far gone already).
• Prune the bushes.
• Sweep the front porch.
• Re-caulk the back window.
• Sweep the back porch.

To Do In The House:

• Laundry (this is never-ending).
• Change the sheets on the bed.
• Dishes.
• Vacuum everywhere.
• Finish organizing the back bedroom.
• Clean the kitchen.

Projects I Would Like To Do:

• Desk Calendars for Christmas Around Sabina Town.
• Fabric Pom-Poms for Christmas Around Sabina Town.
• Make a cover for my new USB Flash Drive
• Make some wooden spools for embroidery thread (I don’t remember the website where I saw these, I’ll post pictures when I make them).
• Finish Painting my new coffee table and end table (the rain will hamper this).
• Paint my grandma’s old desk and an antique table for the back sewing room (the rain will also hamper this).
• Paint the two metal vintage lawn chairs my grandpa gave me last year.

I need to run to town at some point today. I didn’t plan to, but I’ve been thinking of things I could use. Right now that list is:

• BBQ/High Heat Paint for the grill.
• New Hinges for the antique table.
• Three cans of spray paint to paint the vintage chairs.
• Lawn bags for yard waste.

My dilemma is what town to go to (not much of a dilemma, but with my mood, it will be). If I go to Wilmington I could go to Big Lots to browse and I could get my other stuff at Ace Hardware. If I go to Washington Court House I could go to the thrift store and browse and get my stuff at Ace Hardware. Hrm. If it weren’t raining, yard sales might be the deciding factor. :P

Anyway, I’m off to go accomplish something.
