The top five, in no particular order:
1. Give my houseplants a little more TLC. Including the ficus in the bathroom that needs some serious surgery, repotting and delousing
2. Sprout more seeds, especially alfalfa
3. Don't buy any more pumpkin seeds - the dozen or so packets I have are already enough!
4. Use the several gallons of chicken and guinea fowl stock in the freezer to make some nutritious soup
5. Finish the pathwork charm quilt that I intended my newborn baby (now eight months) to lie on
What are yours?
Ahh, but having those old pumpkin seeds rather than new ones may be a good thing.
I have read (and can't lay my hands on the source just now) that 2 yr old cucurbit seeds, when germinated, produce plants with more female flowers and hence fruit, than new ones.

2. Be more positive about life.
3. Grow my hort knowledge.
4. take one picture a day.

Danielle I particularly like no 4 - although I'd add to that sorting out all my photo archives - both physical and digital...
