Once the cats go to the big litter box in the sky
, recarpet the whole house.
In no particular order,
1. ceiling fan replacement in family room & master bedroom
2. refinish front door & bench in the backyard
3. Take a machete to the hill in the backyard
4. Repaint base boards in the house.
5. Drink heavily.

A person has GOT to know his limitations.
My wife wanted a tile kitchen floor, so I put one in. I did lots of research, talked with buddies who had done floors or were doing floors, and I mapped out my project (scope, schedule, budget). I also had some flex to work with; a borrowed tile saw with no time limit, and work arounds until the floor was done (eat out!). What I thought would take 4 to 5 days, took 3 WEEKS!
When I was done, my wife wanted to tile the bathroom. I found a friend who was a professional tile man, and paid the money for HIM to do the job! Like I said, a person has got to know his limitations.
My next job; have someone else replace some windows!

When my check gets here I have to finish my Kitchen,
I had a friend of mine tell me she is never surprised if a wall has been tore down or some kinda construction is going on when she visits... and she has been visiting me on and off for 10 years!!
Guess I like to keep changin crap, or maybe I just like doing construction work.... Since I have no wife it could be the fact that if I want to take a wall out, no one can complain!!
