One-twelfth of 2019 already gone!
So here we are at the end of January 2019.
* removed trash from the front yard.
* raked and swept the front yard.
* taken down the Christmas tree, but a few Christmas items need to be boxed.
* cleared off the treadmill so Marisa can use it, including dumping overripe persimmons.
* feeding Petunia after she had kittens.
* set up queries at work to monitor all my tickets...and getting all work items on tickets.
* keeping up with tickets with priority settings.
* planning in time for business objectives.
* scaled back online purchases. not quite zero.
* adjusted paycheck for greater savings.
Plan for months ahead:
* February: finish all quarterly objectives and tickets, clean basement for plumbing access, taxes, set up bookshelves.
* March: week "vacation" to finish walkways, gate, front area trimming, weed removal.
* April: landscape side area, other outdoor improvements, mowing, prepare vegetable garden area.
* May: plumbing contractor hired to fix hot water supply to kitchen sink and repair kitchen drain.
* June: final push for all outdoor activities.
* July: paint.
* August: more basement clean-up.
* September: vacation, contract for roof.
* October: vacation, some outdoor work.
* November: Thanksgiving and cards,
* December: Christmas.
