December, Already

The to-do list for 2013 has many items unfinished, but the December calendar doesn't have a lot of room to complete them. The first order of business is to make a list--among all the other lists that we create this month--to determine how many tasks can be deferred to next year (unfortunately, not many).

December is the month when there's a final push to make the numbers, when year-end reports are drafted, and the final touches are made to next year's plan. Adding to the burden are card-writing, gift-giving, and tree-decorating, not to mention going away on vacation. And I really should take a look at last-minute tax moves for 2013.

December used to be one of my favorite months; now, January can't come too soon.
