Travis-Do List (Preliminary Version)

Travis/Trevor/Chaulmers/T-Rav/Trampass/Liberal will be coming down south a few weeks in March. As is the custom, our hospitality opens our house to him free of charge. We provide a bed, some water for cleaning/teeth brushing, towells and power to charge his phone. He provides us with purchasing dinner every night, purchasing donuts a few mornings, gas money (sometimes), agreeing with my wife on everything I bring up and helping me do tasks and chores that pile up. His help with the chores (and feeding us) offsets about the $2.52 he adds to our monthly electric and water bill. I look forward to his visit, as it motivates me to get these tasks completed. For example, the last time he was down, he assembled 4 patio chairs and 9/10 of a patio table, while I unwrapped all the parts and put together 1 chair and held the table while he finished screwing in all the bolts. There is a long list of chores that need to be completed including the following:
1. Fix broken door in the guest bathroom.
2. Hang broken fixture over blinds in TV Room.
3. Put together swingset and anchor to ground.
4. Install flag holder by front door.
5. Drill and install Address sign by front door.
6. Move remaining Christmas items into garage attic.
7. Replace bulbs to outdoor lighting.
8. Weed rockbeds.
9. Trim Palm Trees.
10. Lay sod over dead patches from winter freeze.
11. Paint and/or replace black mailbox.
12. Pressure wash driveway, sides of house and back patio.
13. Clean garage tool shelf.
14. Rent carpet cleaner for TV and Bedrooms.
15. Organize Ebay room.

This is just a few items that need immediate attention during Travis's visit and will continue to add to the Travis-Do List and post an updated version closer to his visit.
