So I'm building my TO DO list before TTC....
Replace carpet with wood floors... (WE BOUGHT THEM TODAY!!!!)
Lay tile in the kitchen and bathroom...
Lose 50 lbs... (or more)
Scrap and re texture the popcorn ceilings (who's idea was it to throw cottage cheese on my ceiling? gawsh!)
Paint the living room green, the kitchen yellow, buy new rugs... and enjoy!
Anyone else care to share there to-do's?

I don't really have a to-do list but I agree with the stupid cottage-cheese ceilings.
I have that in my entire house and I HATE it!

Our to-do list was to just move out of the ghetto.
We have a two bedroom apartment now. That will work temporarily until we purchase a house.
I'm still working out. I'd like to get down to 135, but we will see if my body wants to do that.

We are finishing our basement. They guys are finishing the drywall tomorrow!!!!!! I want to get that all set up and painted really cute. I also want to finish building our patio and Zen garden. I started that before I got pregnant and now I am determined to finish it by next Spring.
Your list sounds amazying!
(I hate popcorn ceilings too, but I am not ready to tackle that just yet)

- Paint spare room
- replace carpeting in bedrooms
- replace blinds upstairs
- don't spend all our savings on the house 'cause I won't be working for a year and baby's gotta eat!
- win lottery then redo kitchen
*sigh*
- replace roof
- possibly replace furnace (please last another winter or 2)

My mom would tell me:
Get Married and Graduate!
Personally, I just want to buy a 4-door car and have DF finish all his remodeling so that we can live together all the time

My list:
- paint my bedroom
- decorate my bedroom! 
- lose 40-60lbs
- get my G1 (first part of your driver's license)
Of course, if I get preggo before this happens, I'll do it while preggo! Except the losing weight thing!
