I know, I know. We’re down to the last day of the year. But I figured I had some things I’d like to do before it’s over:<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Sleep.<\/li>\n

    <\/p>\n

  2. Deal with the two Groupons that expire tomorrow. (One is transferring money onto my Starbucks card, so that’s easy.)<\/li>\n

    <\/p>\n

  3. Finish one last book. (We’re into the final 50 pages or so of a mystery, and I actually don’t know who the murderer is OR who the PI works for. Shocking!)<\/li>\n

    <\/p>\n

  4. Complete one last knitting project. (I’ve just got a couple rows to finish, plus two thumbs to knit on my Christmas fingerless mitts that it’s been too warm to wear this year.)<\/li>\n

    <\/p>\n

  5. Pay the phone bills.<\/li>\n

    <\/p>\n

  6. Send out the last of the Christmas cards. (I like real mail no matter when it arrives. I assume other people will, too.<\/li>\n

    <\/p>\n

  7. Unpack. (My carry-on is jam-packed.)<\/li>\n

    <\/p>\n

  8. Compose a three beautiful things post.<\/li>\n

    <\/p>\n

  9. Go to the movies with Sarah. (We’ve got a trio of films we’re planning to see as this year transitions out and 2016 moves in.)<\/li>\n

    <\/p>\n

  10. Call Rudi to wish him a happy new year before he goes to bed. (He’s coaching up in Vermont and likely will be asleep by the time Sarah and I get out of the theater.)<\/li>\n

    \n<\/ol>\n

    How about you? Are you trying to finish anything up before the clock strikes twelve and the calendar flips over?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
