You can see how we prioritized a few things (those with numbers on the left side), and we even finished a few things before putting the list in the drawer. 2 years later, there are only 2 unfinished projects - the rain barrel and the enclosures around the A/C units. I have good reasons for both. I have not found the perfect spot for a rain barrel yet. I have some ideas but nothing has jumped out as the perfect option. We haven't enclosed the A/C units because I am not happy with the newer unit we have. It's really loud and I have debated replacing it so that we aren't interrupted eating dinner on the porch. I wish I had paid closer attention to the HVAC decisions I made during the renovation but I think this fell through the cracks around the time I gave birth to Alex which took me out of the work zone for four or five days. It can be fixed but it's going to cost some $$$. I'm going to decide this spring whether I can live with it or not and then finish the enclosure project.
Still, I think Handy Hubby did a fantastic job knocking off all of these projects. Most were completed within a year which I think is great!!
I love finding notes like this which really take me back in time and remind me what we were thinking about at that point and what our priorities were.
Happy Monday (not).
Don't you just love that 'accomplished' feeling when you find an old list and realize you've finished just about everything that was on it? I wrote about this very thing last Monday! Hope you have a great day!
ReplyDeleteThat's too bad about the noisy compressor. Have you checked to see if the whole unit had to be replaced or if an HVAC guy could just upgrade the compressor itself? Might be cheaper and then you wouldn't have to scrap the whole unit. If you did need to replace the whole thing you could always Craigslist it.
ReplyDeleteWe would just have to upgrade the air handler not the whole system which would be very painful. I am hoping that we could sell it to our neighbors across the driveway who have a VERY noisy unit which is almost more disturbing than the one right next to us!
ReplyDeleteHow gratifying to see that you've completed so many of the things on your house to-do list!! Yay!
