Last Monday’s to do list worked really well {the power of blog accountability!} so I’m following along the same lines this week, however with a little difference. This week I’m transforming a cupboard that lies off of our upstairs hallway, and I’m hoping to do it on a budget of £20. As you can see the cupboard is currently used as a dumping ground for the ironing board, hoover and ironing basket; I’d like to tidy it up.
My plan includes adding some wallpaper, adding a shelf above the window { I need somewhere to store my toilet roll stockpile!} and adding a couple of storage baskets/containers to the floor. I already have the wallpaper, so the £20 is for everything else.
What little projects to you have on the go at the minute?

Am definitely a big fan of the Monday List! Can’t wait to see the revamped laundry cupboard
My big project this week is to sort out our filing/post piles. It’s a bit of a jumble at the moment!

I’m a big fan of lists too. I find if I don’t have a list driving me on I just waffle around bitting and bobbing and missing all the important stuff. I get far more done when list driven.

@kat I do wonder, even though we are nearly paper free with bills etc, where all the paper comes from! It seems to just appear; good luck with your sort out

I’m very list driven too Rob..although sometimes I hide them and forget they are there!

Greetings from Australia!
Love your blog. I’m a ‘lister’ as well. Can’t imagine my life without one.
On top of my list is starting my own personalised ‘one on one’ English language business. Secondly, garage sale. Thirdly, obtain British passport (my mum was born in England), and eventually move to Portugal!
Abracos

Hi Jen and thank you! Your plans sound great, I’d love to know why you chose Portugal

Ola!
My love affair with all things Portuguese began 20 years ago when I travelled to Brasil. Since then I have been learning the language (slowly).
Also have been teaching in Timor Leste (former Portuguese colony) & feel affinity with Portugal that I can’t ignore…Plan to travel there at end of year to see for myself. Can’t wait!
Ate mais tarde
Jen
