Post details: Goals for 2005

Goals for 2005

We were only 1 for 3 last year, though we did get married and I'm sure that counts for something.

  • Open store - Not possible. Storefronts in Ypsilanti need too much work, getting venture capital for retail operations is impossible, and health insurance is too expensive.
  • Buy house in the City of Ypsilanti - 4 days from buying a house in the City of Hamtramck. I feel like we dodged a bullet.
  • Replace car - check!

This year, we have a little more on our plate.

  • Move to Hamtramck.
  • Have roof replaced.
  • Rewire home electrical system.
  • Install lead filration system.
  • Complete repairs suggested by home inspector.
  • Plant herb garden.
  • Plant vegetables.
  • Consider planting fruit trees.
  • Camp at least one weekend.
  • More canning, including some cherries this year.
  • Maintain 2 blogs.

Heh. Funny how many to-do's buying a house adds.

At first glance, I read "canning" as "caning", and thought you guys had picked up some corporal punishment routine. But then I wondered why you'd be beating cherries, as if they'd committed some terrible offense. Of course, I suppose caning could be added as a consequence for not accomplishing all of the other listed goals.

Murph: If you could see the number of items that fall under "Complete repairs suggested by home inspector"... it goes on for pages. Reading my list over, a year seems shorter than it did yesterday. I'm glad I posted this before I committed to sewing all our clothes or something.

Let's just hope the rapture doesn't come before you have a chance to enjoy the new home.
