I finished cleaning under the computer desk. It looks very neat and organized.
Now the only official project that I haven’t completed is the one someone else is helping me with. I should find another project for this week, but I’ll probably skip that until next week.

We are now planning on spending Saturday helping my father-in-law move instead of insulating and finishing the garage wall. There is no time for another project this week (trust me, I’ve seen my schedule).
I have next week off. We’ll see what I can manage then.

I totally neglected last week’s project. I didn’t do a single thing to organize under the desk. That project will have to go back in queue.
This coming Saturday, my father-in-law is supposed to be coming over to help me insulate and seal off a wall between my garage and my living room. [...]

In case you didn’t catch it, last week’s project is complete.
Now that I can access underneath the desk, this week’s project is to organize the multiple boxes and various objects I have down there (various computer stuff). I also need to organize/sort through the boxes that were moved out of the corner [...]

This week I want to clean the dishes that need to be hand washed on a nightly basis…after supper (addended to meet the spirit of the project).
I’ve wanted to try this for a while now, but something always distracts me. I usually end up doing the hand washables once a week (or so). [...]

Monday’s 12″+ of snow took some time away from the unpublished project I had planned for my New Year’s Day off. As you can see, it was quite an aggressive outline, considering I had the whole day off at home with my wife. I only got as far as the bolded work.
Clean corner [...]

Here’s a no-brainer post, and a good way to get back into the Project of the Week.
This week’s goal is to set up the new computer. That means add the software I want it to have and delete the software I don’t. It’s already up and running and has Firefox installed (I’m posting [...]

This week is so-so. On the computer front, my new harddrive arrived on Tuesday but I couldn’t install it because I didn’t have the program disks that “come” with a computer. My computer was purchased Frankensteinian from Eric. I picked the program up last night, but decided to wait until my day [...]

I guess I unofficially started doing Projects of the Week last week when I started tackling my disorganized garage. That has been mostly taken care of now. I just have to set the curbside recycling out on the first Tuesday of next month. Also, the redemption center was closed last Saturday so [...]
