Or did you mean tractor projects? If that, then:
Done:
1. till garden using new 5 ft tiller (yeah baby!)
2. use new tiller to fix deep ruts in lawn from stupid attempt to drive truck when front coming out of the ground.
3. use new tiller to mix good soil with bad for fixing bad spot on lawn.
4. Load manure and spread it on lawn using borrowed spreader (4 loads and that grass did great).
5. mow
6. fill in the holes the damn dog dug
not done:
1. concrete pad if not the whole drive
2. more landscaping
3. fix more lawn - no rain so why bother
4. blade driveway
5. add nice retaining walls to problem area in back yard. ....

Done? Some things are never done. I mowed fields and trails three times and continued thinning trees, chipping slash, digging and burning stumps, trail building, and spraying blackberries and scotch broom. Maybe it will be "done" in 20 years. One day when money is more plentiful I'll get around to the retaining wall project that has been on hold for a couple of years now. Maybe after the tractor is paid off next July. ....
