Wedding Chore Update

I'm hoping I can keep the productivity on this list going when football season starts.  I'll no longer have my Saturdays and starting next week I'll be working 40 hours instead of my usual 32.  I don't really have a lot of DIY items on this list so really it's just picking things out and shopping :-)  R has a few items on here that he has to make so I'm hoping he'll have some Sundays to devote to it.  I highlighted tasks for September and my accomplishments for August are in crossed off in purple.
