Are you buying a new car this year? Maybe moving home? Are you one of the unlucky ones who will be trying to find a job this year? Time for babies? Home need some work?
This year I want to get my shed sorted out. Originally it was split in to 3 (shed, coal store and outside toilet) but the shed and coal store were joined before we bought the place. All the previous owners old workbenches and units are in there with worktops that are more drill holes in than actual worktop, rusted old brackets and a generally mank feel and a rotting door on the toilet to finish it all off.
The toilet is long since gone though the ability to put one in is still there. I'm going to replace the door and use that section for garden storage stuff. The Hose is already in there so once the door is done the mower and other stuff can live in there and stay out of my man shed! Once that's done I'll rip out all the old stuff and all the old wiring which is no longer connected and get some power in there for at least lights (possibly just a big 12v battery and some strips) as well as new worktop and storage units.
We've also got the box bedroom to sort out as it's been the junk room since we moved in 2 years ago. Some plastering needs to be done and then I can get it decorated for the first time since we moved in!
We are off to Florida at the end of August which is already paid off (first holiday since the Honeymoon 2.5 years ago) which coincides with the wife finishing her top up degree for her diploma. Once she's got a job again we will start thinking very seriously about starting a family. We could be preggers by next Christmas!
What about you folks?
