Everything.
Too vague I guess.
I want new furniture ....
We have some nice stuff, but it's too big for the room so it looks (and is) too crowded and overpowering. I'm not big into having lots of big parties etc so do I really need/want a dining table big enough for 12 in a room that realistically can only hold a table for 6? Do I need both a large china cabinet and a large entertainment center with display cabinets attached? Do I even want a entertainment center in the living/dining room?
Some of our stuff just needs to be replaced because it's in bad shape. But it can't go out the front door because the staircase is too narrow (I think - the old railing wasn't there when we moved in the furniture so it didn't matter. We put up the new railing after the furniture came in.) It can't go out the back door because I really don't think the deck stairway is sturdy enough to support the weight of the furniture plus a couple of guys doing the moving.
I want to get the paperwork in order...
Dump the stuff that really can be dumped.
Sort out the bank statements and other financial stuff by year and store it someplace I can find again.
I want to put up siding or re-paint the house....
Siding. I don't want to have to repaint again. I wonder if that will get rid of bugs. (not termites, I don't think.)
I want to re-landscape...
New lawn or some ground cover.
Perenials maybe, or flowering bushes or something that will add color.
Something with color brighter than a dull green between late fall and early spring.
A bench or some other kind of sitting area
Some kind of privacy screen, the house is on a street corner and the yard is open to the street from both corners. Not the entire yard, but enough to not look like I'm sitting in the yard to watch the neighbors.
I want to decorate downstairs....
Live upstairs in the winter and downstairs in the summer. It'll save on the airconditioning costs big time
I want to find a property management company....
I can't do the maintenance really. And if I (or we) move to a condo, we'd have to pay a mortgage and maintenance fees. The house has no mortgage, it'll just be the maintenance fees.
I want to have a home that's a refuge from the outside
