You've humbled me with that list. We do have the sunscreen and hats in use, and some of the winter stuff put away, but what is this cleaning before putting away thing that you talk about???

Now I know why I don't make lists. The list is always too long. Your list looks pretty good though you have a few chores checked off. Good Luck with that window one. I think that would be a good one to delegate to hubby.LOL

I was just thinking about starting a list today. With the sudden onslaught of summer, it seems that I missed some of my usual tasks. I would really like to include both of your hubbys on mine too. Of course I would have to get another motorcycle and well, find a way to strap "J" to it ;). But, the golf clubs are ready and raring to go downstairs!!
