This is where I plan to list projects that I plan to get to eventually, but that simply aren't on the immediate horizon (aka the Current To-Do List).
I'm going to organize the list by room/area.
Whole House
Floors refinishedBaseboards (aka 1x6 stained building lumber) and window/door trim (big-box store's el-cheapest) replaced with something that looks a LOT more period appropriate. Start with 3rd floor to get practice where my screw-ups won't be so noticeable, then 1st floor, then 2nd. Plastic fake grain cheapo interior doors replaced with real wood doors, salvaged if possible.Honeycomb/cellular shades throughout Kitchen PaintHalf-curtains out of some cute colorful retro fabric once we know for sure about the paint colorTile backsplash behind stove, somehow incorporating two tiles salvaged from my Granny's original kitchen. Put extra shelves in cabinets that hold cups and glasses, to optimize those spacesPut pull-out organizers in the one big cabinet where all of the pots & pans get dumped. Install pantry cupboard that faces into kitchen in place of poorly sized/laid out pantry closet that's around the corner in the dining room; leave reduced-size closet in place as either extra pantry for rarely used pans and such, or maybe a coat closet. Figure out a way to install a dishwasher, since my current one constantly forgets to wear glasses that are much-needed in order to see if schmutz is still on dishes. Do something with the space to the left of the fridge. Dining Room Get floor repaired then finishedFix basement door frameReplace ceiling fan with ?? Living Room Replace ceiling fan with ??New sofasOffice Patch walls and PAINTFix drywall seam near old water leak, and paint ceiling. Take down ugly wall cabinetThere has to be a better way to organize this room...Bathroom - 1st Floor Finish paint touch-upsNew light fixtureInstall Triple-switch to give separate controls for light and exhaust fan (wiring already in place)Figure out some way to box in the big pipe in the corner. Long term: Replace El Cheapo shower stall with something that looks much nicer, install a window (frosted glass? high transom?) and get rid of that absurd partial wall. Mudroom Find the perfect storage bench for just inside the door. PaintFind replacement tile for the broken tiles. Basement Clean up old moldReplace old insulation with newPut a freezer down thereStairway Refinish newel postRefinish old railings that were given to us and use to replace current railings (will need new balusters though)Panel wainscoting along wall to hide damage done by previous owners.Repair damaged steps and refinish.Bedroom #1 Paint needs touchupsFind a way to fix closet door that won't shut because closet it a teensy bit too narrowCorner TV cabinet with doors that can be closed so that TV isn't visible at all times, and interior shelves so that DVR and DVD recorder don't need to be bungied on top of the tv to keep them from falling off. Bedroom #2 Paint, but only after Granddaughter #1 is over her Pink Phase (but hopefully before she decides to go Goth and wants it black)Bedroom #3 Paint, sometime before Granddaughter #2 is old enough to form opinions on paint colorBathroom - 2nd floor Refinish then retrofit old dresser to use as a sink base, then get it installed with new counter, sink and fixtureNew hardware - towel bar(s), tp holderNew old mirror behind sink Recessed medicine cabinet to left of sinkNew lightingMove outlets from on wall behind sink to left wall to side of sink, even though the drywalling alone is going to be a royal PITA, just because it's in a horrible spotReplace exhaust fan; change to a triple switch if the wiring is in placeNew flooringRecessed shelves or tall cabinet to left of toiletLong term: new soaking bathtub, install a windowStairway to 3rd floor Install new door (or modify old door) to fire escape landing that allows re-entry from landing, to make that a possible entrance (right now it's an exit-only door with one of the bar handles)3rd floor bedrooms PaintBox in ducting3rd floor in general New carpetingBuild in some access doors to allow storage in knee-wallsAttic InsulatePull everything out so that we can put that big ugly rug down as additional insulation on the floor, then put everything back inHouse Exterior Powerwash sidingScrape/repair/repaint porch floorTear out awful stuff on porch ceiling and replace with beadboardGet porch roof repairedPowerwash the foundationInstall decorative shuttersAdd an accent color to the porchInstall wider and more age-appropriate trim around windowsRun all gutters farther away from house (rainbarrel on east side)Dig drywell for sump pump drainGarage/shed Scrape, seal, paintOrganizeBuild a better workbenchFix roof (nails popping on metal roof, otherwise seems in good condition)Repair rotted boardsInstall gutter on far side of garage, back of shed (hook all gutters to rainbarrels)Long term: get cement floor poured in garage (currently just gravel), run more power out thereLandscaping/gardening Move azalea to right of stepsMove irises out of front bed to sunnier areaMove perennials from temporary bed near garage to someplace that makes senseAnnihilate as much privet as possibleWiden path along outside of privacy fenceFill in dips in side and front yards where new water pipe was runCut the tops off the too-tall fence postsPowerwash then water-seal fenceLook into alternate hinges and lock for gate
