Trade in for a more fuel-efficient car or hybrid
Love my Prius 2 years ago

My commute is about 50 miles round trip, so it really helps to be getting at least 45 mpg (and I drive kinda fast :) ). Plus it’s got lots of fun buttons inside and is quiet and smooth to drive.



knit a sweater
Did it! 3 years ago

My first “real” sweater is done! I made the Matilda Jane by Ysolda, in Rowan Wool Cotton (which I like very much). There are a few fit related things that I think could be better (I have no bust, sigh), but still I like the result very much, and will wear it more once it stops being 100 degrees here :).



file my tax return early
Not gonna happen 3 years ago

Ack! Well, you know what they say about good intentions… First one of my W-2s was delayed (sent to old address), then I lost the other one (found it under my bed), finally filled everything out online (TurboTax), got to the part about automatically depositing my refund into my checking account & realized that I didn’t have the acct. number! I keep forgetting to look it up! It’ll get done on time, but not early, I’m afraid.
