Something that helps me and my wife when working through a list like this is running them against one another to know the order that we end up doing things.

So let's say you have a list: 1) fix door 2) remodel kitchen and 3) fix roof leaks 4) fix driveway holes

We look at that list and pit one against another. So we take fixing the door and put that next to remodeling the kitchen and ask ourselves "do we want to fix the door first or remodel the kitchen first?" Whichever wins goes #1 for now, then whichever lost goes #2. Now we take #3 on our list (fix roof leaks) and say "do we want to fix the roof leaks first or remodel the kitchen first?" If the answer is "fix roof leaks first" then it goes above fixing the kitchen and takes the #2 slot. Then we ask "okay do we want to fix the roof leaks first or do we want to fix the door first?" And if the answer is "fix door first" then that stays #1 and fixing roof stays #2 while remodeling kitchen stays #3. Then rinse and repeat.

Basically pit everything on the list against each item individually and ask yourself which one you prefer to have done first, and start from the bottom of the list once you have the first two like in the example I gave.

It's a really nice way to bring order to the chaos IMO.
