I love being productive

Nothing gives me a sense of calm than being productive.  Having long to-do lists for too long makes me crazy.  Then I go into "tornado" mode like the hubster likes to call it.

This weekend, we knocked out three tasks that have been on my list for a while.

1. and 2. Fix the toilets.  2 of the 3 toilets in our house are broken in some way.  The downstairs main bathroom toilet gets stuck and sometimes runs and overflows the toilet.  This has happened three times, but runs constantly after someone uses the bathroom.  We fixed that!  The upstairs bathroom toilet has a leak in the tank.  We found this out a few months ago when we went upstairs to find the floor covered in water.  We fixed that too!  What I hate is that fact that it took a total of 1 hour (including the drive to Home Depot) to fix these two items that have been plaguing us for so long

    3.   Put up tire rack in the garage.  Since the hubster is a car guy, I indulge in his car things.  For example, I have two sets of tires for my car.  Winter/snow and three season/performance.  The performance tires have been sitting in a stack in the corner of the garage.  The replacements for those have been sitting in between the two cars for about a week.  It makes pulling into the garage a little trickier.  We bought two tire racks last year.  They have been sitting unassembled in the garage.  We finally put one up and put the tires up there and the new ones underneath where the old ones sat.  This has cleared up a lot of space and allowed us to put the hubster's "gaming" chair underneath as well.  Soon the new tires will be put on the other wheels and the old tires will be disposed of.  So there will be even more space in the garage.

So there you have it.  Three checks on my to-do list.  I still need to finish the floors and I think the hubster wants to re-do the bathroom floors before finishing the wood floors...

I see that lasting another year.
