9. Completing that bathroom (‘before/after’ home decorating project, that’s nearly done ha.. ha). Status Done.
10. Tidying up the currently DISASTEROUSLY MESSY craft cabinet (a ‘before/after’ craft organization project, that’s only just began and is MUCH needed) – Status: WIP. I just began the clean-up. Already feels a lot better.
