Complete my to do list

Every week I write a ‘To Do’ list at work. And then each Monday I carry over the unfinished items from the last week’s list onto the new list, and add more of course.
There has been far more carry over than ticking off. I have two things on my list from 2004, and a number of things from 2005. Can the world please stop for two weeks so I can complete my ‘to do’ list? Actually, I’d need a month…
