My own Wren Bay-esque outline

Suppose you were to write a novel like Wren Bay, all about the experience of coming upon a house and conquering it, in the domestic sense. What would the outline look like to you? How would you tackle things? Chronologically? Room by room? Chore by chore?

For myself, maybe it would be like…

1. Rooms and furniture
2. Cupboards and drawers
3. Attics and outbuildings
4. Unexpected repairs
5. Unexpected upgrades
6. Heavy cleaning
7. Light cleaning
8. Eating and washing up
9. Dust and laundry
10. A daily routine
11. Holiday cheer
12. Sorting through the nonsense

    Great idea! Your list makes me want to create my own–better yet, it makes me want to conquer a house! I guess lists can be inspiring. :)
