challenge: 5 odd jobs

You know those odd jobs- the ones that cause you to walk around saying "I need to get that done sometime soon", but somehow they keep getting put off? That's what I am going to do this week. Nothing was standing out as a big project that needed doing, so I went through the house and picked 5 of those odd jobs to complete during the next 7 days.
  1. Kitchen Knives-they need sharpening and the wooden handles need oiling.
  2. Squeaks- there are a number of doors and cabinets around this place that are in need of some oiling.
  3. Dining Room Chairs- these were in need of some glue to fix the wobbling- I did two last week and need to finish the job.
  4. Oven- needs a good cleaning on the inside.
  5. Sewing Machine-needs to be cleaned and lubricated. This is LONG overdue.
I can blame the dry and dusty desert air for some of the squeaking and creaking, and maybe even the wobbling- but probably not the dirty oven. What odd jobs have you been putting off?

Editing to cross things off the list!

  1. When you clean the machine...let me know your method...I'm diligently oiling my new "old" machine, but don't really know how I'm suppose to clean it.
