I made a list of projects that need to be done for the house. It has 37 items on it. (and I just thought of two more) Then, I ran the list through CNN’s Prioritizer. It’s this very cool thing on their personal finance page. You pick up to 15 things (they made it for financial goals, but you can use it for anything) and put them in a list. Then you work your way thorough a series of choices picking which of two you find more important. At the end, your items are ranked with a score. I love it!

In the time it took me to put 37 choices through the Prioritizer, I have already finished the following projects:
Knife holder, install (87.5%)
Plant evergreen huckleberry (78.6%)
Plant apple trees (64.3%)
Install towel racks (finished before I prioritized)
Put up hooks for bags in office (finished before I prioritized)
