My next goal/project!!

So I have been trying to decide what goal I should start working on next. It is summer and I have a little more time on my hands. So this is what I am hoping to do in the next month or two, before school starts and I will hopefully have a teaching job or at least be staying busy subbing  (keeping my fingers crossed).

Project 1: Recover the cushions on my patio chairs and repaint the table and chairs. (Goal 17)
Its not that I don't like my table and chairs, they were giving to me by someone who had them in their shed for years and never opened them (can't beat something free) but they aren't my style. And my husband doesn't like flower patterns. So I thought I would try recovering the cushions and painting the metal to more match us and what we like. We will see how they turn out.

Project 2: Create a Calander (Goal 25)
I want to pull together some of my scenic pictures from different months of the year (1 from each month of places in Idaho) and put together a calendar. I have enough pictures to do it, its just sitting down and doing it. I also want to do this for diffrent places I have been through out the US and Mexico (and hopefully Canada this summer, Goal 42 and 44).

Project 3: Decorate Aubrey's room. (Goal 10)
She has been asking me for a few years now if we could re-paint her room from how we had it as her baby room. Instead of re-painting her room we baught a new house. However now her walls are a light brown and she wants to decorate them to match her bedding. Brown is too boring for her appearntly, she must take after her mother. So she picked out some paint colors and now wants to paint big flowers on her walls. Her idea is actually pretty cute. I have quite a creative 7 year old.

Project 4: Finish some old projects I started years ago that I have yet to finish (Goal 17 & 22)
This is includes a Creative Tile Tray (see Crafty Creations link for directions), a quilt for my living room, and a baby blanket I started to knit when I was pregnant (thats going on 8 years now)

So I think this will give me plenty to do while I am sitting around waiting for a job and school to start. Lets see if I can actually get them done (or at least a couple of them done and the others started).
