LOVE IT!
That's one way to get a UFO off your back. And it's a win-win!
I've got a running list of "open projects" ... periodically I go back and rewrite the list, prioritize what I want to accomplish based on upcoming events (holdiay, gift, etc.). Then there is the "project kit bin" that has probably a dozen differnt smallish projects in it for when I'm not sure what to work on next. I find too many UFOs stresses me out. I'm goal oriented.
