2010 DIY Goals

We've been taking a break from the house in the summer when I'm in our garden. Now, that it's winter again we will be picking up where we left off. Here are some things we plan on doing immediately this winter:

• Replace the kitchen countertop.
• Install the 1/2 bathroom on the first floor - includes putting in the plumbing from scratch and tiling the floor.
  
• Tiling the kitchen back splash. This will be my first attempt at glass tile.
  
• Demo the built-in bar in the dining room & repair all the molding that will be missing.
• Installing wood floors in the dining room.
• Replacing the lights in the dining room.
  

If we survive, we'll be finishing the basement next fall. We need a little more room for a home office, game room, spare bedroom and storage. That's all going to go into the basement.

What are some of your goals? Do you have things on last year's list that have been carried over?
