@luludou - this is interesting. Where can I find this list or is it something you created?
Katrina it's a list I created. I list every room in the house (main floor and basement) and then subdivide by task and I leave a space where I write S (spring) or F (Fall) when done. This ensures I go over every room at least once a year
ex:
Master Bedroom

Thanks for sharing Lucie. You are one of the most organised people I know.
As part of our countdown to Christmas we celebrate Rudy Day on the 25th of each month.
January's Rudy Day selection has been posted by this months hostess Myron's Mom. So many exciting ideas to keep Christmas in our hearts and minds all year through.
Pop on over and join in the fun.

A month since we celebrated Christmas 2025!
Has the time flown by or has it gone slowly? For me it has gone pretty quickly. I’ve been busy making plans and setting goals, enjoying my January.
How have you been spending your time?
Only 11 more months and we get to celebrate again…….can‘t wait.

Time has just flown by since Christmas at our house.
I didn't get that will January ever end feeling like I do most years.
Yes, same here. I have been keeping busy and I think that has really helped with any post Christmas blues.
So many projects at the moment to work on.
Happy Rudy Day!
Pop on over to the Rudy Day section and celebrate the first Rudy Day of the year.

Here we are in the last days of January, didn't that go quickly?
I know some people are not a fan of January, I suppose it all depends on your outlook, what plans you have made and how you spend your time. I find it a great time to reset after a busy Christmas and to make plans for the year ahead.
The good news....we have so many months ahead of us to plan, organise and dream of the great holidays coming our way.
Next up, Valentine's Day.

Happy Valentine's Day to you all.....love is in the air.
DH and I will just have a quiet day here at home, our anniversary is next week so we will do something more for that.
What are your plans to celebrate the day of love?
But first! Christmas in July! 
Anyone want to do the ornament swap in July?

I cannot wait for CIJ. It is going to be great this year
I woke up thinking, "Man, it was two months ago today and we were scurrying about getting ready for our Christmas Eve gathering. Those two months have been eventful." I hadn't thought about 10 months until Christmas Eve 2026. LOL!
