Progress Report #1

We made a good start this week on our January theme, “Organize”- here’s the update:

1. My desk – Sort, file, and deal with all the papers that built up during December when all I was doing was sewing.
Basically finished – I’ve gone through all my papers and filed everything that I can.  All that’s left is what I need to take care of before filing – good enough for me to take it off the list!
2. Nik’s desk – ditto (except for the sewing part)
He’s also made good progress and is almost finished.
3. Clear off the couch in our office – sort and put away all items.
finished except for the gardening paperwork that is currently being used (see #9)
4. Ditto for the floor of the office.  totally clear – mostly thanks to Nik!
5. Make a master harvest schedule (i.e. what we have to harvest/can/freeze and when throughout the whole year)
6. Make a Master Recipe List – by season.
7. Sewing Room:  fabric, notions, card/paper supplies – fabric is done!
8. Basement – Canning shelves, boxes, rearrange storage
9.  Make a seed order. – in progress, Nik has it started
10. Catch all desk drawer in office.
11. Organize the recipes on my computer to match my recipe binder system.
12.  The pictures/papers on the refrigerator

    As regards #5 – after we moved here, somewhere I found a brochure that listed all local crops and their harvest dates.  Maybe your county extension office could provide you with such a list?  That would surely be helpful in planning your food harvesting and preservation schedule.

    @Aunt Zona – Thanks Zona! I do have one somewhere that I got from the Master Gardeners but had forgotten about it – I’ll definitely try to find it.
