Yikes, I only have 11 completed. Not good, Keri, not good. I think this week I will try to get some of the sewing things done - re-size my moo-moo, sew a quilt (hahahahahahaha), etc.
 
I'm making great progress on the pictures of Hallie, but I need to check my "stock" to make sure I'm not re-printing anything. The piano thing will never happen, but I'm not sure what I would change that to?
Suggestions?
 
We have the new windows for the house sitting in the garage, but I'm not checking that off of the list until they are installed, trim back on and the house is cleaned up.

In other news, I'm back to work today after having 10 days off from work. It was glorious and now it's not. But i'm trying to find the joy in my job - but it's tough. But Dave comes home tonight so YIPPEE! It feels like an eternity since he's been home. We will probably maul him when he walks in the door, but I need to remind myself that he will probably be super tired and a bit cranky. Or maybe that will just be me after my first work day.
 
Yuck.

A few ideas to replace the piano goal:
1. Visit Houston
2. Have piano tuned
3. Make bagels from scratch (note: this is going on my list, to replace my quilt goal, which is no way happening. eventually, yes. in the next month? no way.
