Earth Hour Seattle Style

We celebrated Earth Hour! We sorta cheated a little because I turned on my illuminated globe (which I recently scored from Goodwill for $4.99). But we figure it was OK to turn it on as a reminder of how precious our Earth is.

Now that it's written, I can't turn back!

I have this bloody awful habit of starting projects that I don't finish. I blame it on my self-diagnosed ADD and would often use the excuse that I am a visionary and can't be bothered with mundane tasks such as actual execution. But this is the year that I whip my house into the mid-Century modern home that it longs to groove to. So to make myself accountable, here's my to-do list:

• Paint front entrance and build mudroom-type shelving for shoes/coats/dog leashes (by June 1)
• Reorganize upstairs office and make it a super-cute creative boardroom (by June 1)
• Decorate master bedroom, install closet system (by June 1)
  
• Plant front yard flowers and clean up backyard (by June 30)
• Redecorate guestroom (by June 30)
  
• Reaarange living room and dining room (by June 30)
• Clean up downstairs office (by July 30)
  
• Finish 2 year kitchen renovation (by September 1)
• Organize garage (by September 1)

I better get my lazy ass to work!
