It has been a while since I even thought about this project, but I really need to get back to it ASAP.

Things that need done to achieve bare minimum functionality:

  1. Outline that simplest process for flipping through tasks and toggling them "Done."
  2. Get the LCD screen working with Raspberry Pi Zero, then solder connections.
  3. Mount the screen straight to the Pi.
  4. Get a battery and charging circuit.
  5. Make a temporary, 2 piece case from epoxy putty, screw it together before set so it can be taken apart.

As I find myself busier than ever, trying to get ready for winter, I find that completing this project will make my life much easier and help me stay on top of the ever growing list of things I need to remember, and take care of. Right now, I am going to focus on the core checklist functionality, keeping other desired features in mind as I design a temporary case, software, and peripherals. Even if I have to edit the code every time I need to add to the lists, that will be ok. I can keep writing things down in my notebook and add them to the Raspberry Checklist when I get to my computer next. This process should annoy me enough to force me to include a full keypad on the back or something.
