AN UPDATED TASK LIST TO KEEP ME FOCUSED ON THE FRONT LOFT PROJECT…
It's been quite a while since I updated my task list so here it goes. This list sure does remind me there are a ton of things to do before this place can be considered complete, but I do see the (dim) light at the end of the tunnel.
I also updated the index, acronym list, and links in post#1 thru 3 while I was at it.
