3) Make rustic window swag bars and swags for bedrooms. waiting on windows
4) Paint porch-done
5) repair awning-
6) make window for south end of porch

Summer:

1) Plant more hedges along south fence
2) Organize tool room-half done

I still need to repair the awning and make the window from spring.

fence hedges are a continuous project. Tool room is better organized.
