I just felt like listing everything I intend to do at some point both at work and at home so I could have a list. And I figured I would share that list with people because why not?

I'll probably check them off as I go or something and update when I get a major one done. If I have time, forums threads will accompany them if they are cool and I think people will care.

Note that what stops me for many of the home ones is money. Also ETC = Estimated Time of Completion, ETA = Estimated Time of Arrival. Note also that all ETA/ETC's are assuming I don't join the Air Force. If I do, then those will obviously change a lot. Some things probably won't even happen. We'll see (If I become a drone pilot, which is totally a thing, I can still live in Texas and have tons of free time, it just all depends on the job).

Home projects (ordered by which will get done first, most likely):

1. Start making PCB jewelry and such out of my heaps of circuit/motherboards to sell on itzy and other websites. (ETA: 5/16/2014; ETC: Eventually)
   This will feed the others and is relatively easy to start and spreads over a long period of time, so it's first.
   
2. Finish setting up my FreeNAS server with my plugins and such. (ETC: 5/17/2014)
   This still hasn't been done because I've been busy. It honestly ties with #1, but I'd prefer to complete or at least start #1 first. Thus the order. All I need to do is install the OS and get the plugins to work. I've got to find a stable version though and that's proving difficult.
   
3. Route Ethernet through the walls in my home. (ETC: 6/21-31/2014)
   Approximate cost $200 or so in total, I intend to have a patch panel with Cat 6A because future proofing and me having a FreeNAS server for backups and such means I need no bottlenecks. It will also add value to my house, I'm sure.
   
4. Finish or fix all the renovations going on in my home. (ETC: 5/11/2015)
   This is something that my step-dad was doing. However, he stopped when my mom died (they were doing it together). Since then, little has been done and most of it is unfinished. I have most of the materials. I just need to have time to do it. This sort of ties with #5, but this doesn't require much monetary input, so this is more likely to happen sooner.
   
5. Set up Solar Panels on my roof. (ETA/C: Eventually)
   This has some issues as I have trees EVERYWHERE where I live, so I'm either going to have to trim some, or find a different way or place to mount them, approximate costs are $16,000 but I expect to get some grants and stuff for it too from my local and state government as well as my electricity company. I'm seriously considering an unorthodox and strange looking setup, but at the same time, I don't want to do that. My house would look dumb, and future buyers might not be interested in something like that. Although I do entirely intend to bring my solar panels and thermostat with me if I do move.
   

Work projects (I'm not doing ETA/ETC or descriptions for these because it's work):

1. Finish re-arranging a file server to where all the drives are formatted to allow usage of their total storage capacity, since they are formatted in MBR and not GPT.
   
2. Finish setting up Roaming Profiles within our Domain.
   
3. Finish setting up our Ubuntu server to host services like Cacti, Nagios, our internal messaging server-client program, and the like.
   
4. Upgrade file server in #1 to server grade hardware (it's consumer stuff aside from the HDD's currently).
   
5. Clean our phone closet and arrange all wires neatly (this will take FOREVER).
   

​My Gaming PC specific Projects:

1. Buy a Logitech G502 (ETA: 7/11/2014
   I love this mouse so much. :D The only negatives for me is the lack of a pinky rest and the blue light (only option), but I use that to maneuver my mouse anyway and it kind of goes with white/black anyway respectively. I may sell my current mouse to make up the difference to get this one anyway. I also decided some time ago that my next/final mouse would be a Logitech one after I watched a video of one of their engineers explaining the intricacies of Mice designing.
   
2. Buy a new keyboard (after completing the review/in depth look at my current one) (ETA: 9/11/2014)
   I'm not sure what I'm going with after this. I only know it will be black or brown switches, full keyboard layout and will have macros. We'll see. I'll update this as I decide.
   
3. Purchase another reference 290X or sell my current one and get a 295X2 if possible. (ETA: 11/11/2014)
   Preparing for 4K, and future watercooling.
   
4. Watercool all the things (ETA: When finances allow)
   This one is going to take a while. I know what parts I want, how they are going to be set up, and everything, but hey, it's costly to water cool.
   

And that's just counting those 3 categories. I have many more. This is why I'm so busy. :( So many things going on at once *sigh*.
