Very few people won&#8217;t be thrilled to see 2020 disappearing in their rearview mirror later this week.<\/p>\n<p>However, there are still a few things that I want to take care of before I close out the year:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Make some year-end donations. I&#8217;m lucky enough to be able to make charitable donations throughout the year, but I know a lot of nonprofits are really hurting this year. I want to do what I can, particularly for my local aid organizations directly helping those stressed by the pandemic (particularly since our government apparently remains unconcerned about everyone&#8217;s welfare).<\/li>\n<p><\/p>\n<li>Spend down my transit and flex spending accounts. Again, I was lucky in that my h.r. person was able to get us the ability to stop putting money into our transit accounts we stopped commuting, but because I did so much work travel at the start of the year, I built up a little buffer I need to distribute.<\/li>\n<p><\/p>\n<li>Write the last handful of holiday letters. We sent out most of our holiday cards on Christmas day, but I saved a few that I wanted to write actual letters in. I did a few yesterday and should write the last three tomorrow.<\/li>\n<p><\/p>\n<li>Clean the kitchen and bathroom floors. Let&#8217;s be honest: While starting the year with a neat apartment would be great, it&#8217;s just not going to happen. But I absolutely can (and should) wash the floors in my two smallest spaces.<\/li>\n<p><\/p>\n<li>Eat lunch outside tomorrow. I&#8217;ll admit eating my midday meal al fresco has been more enjoyable on some days than others this week, but I definitely think it&#8217;s been good for me to spend time outside. My time off is going to end on a rainy note (precipitation is predicted for at least three of the next five days), so I definitely need to be outside tomorrow, regardless of the temperature.<\/li>\n<p><\/p>\n<li>Bake cookies. I haven&#8217;t done it for the first week of my vacation and I&#8217;d hate to spend the last five days without homemade treats.<\/li>\n<p><\/p>\n<li>Finish one more book. For the first time in years, I&#8217;m not going to average a book a week for the year. I intended to really work on getting to 52 books during my time off, but at some point it stopped being a stretch goal and just became ridiculous. However, if I can wrap up one more book, that will put me at 40 for the year.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>What are you hoping to wrap up before 2020 hits the road?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The year is rapidly running out of hours, which is great, to be honest.
