Thanksgiving snuck up on me this year. It caught me by surprise. So much so, I’ve been tallying up all the things I hope to get done by December 31, 2018.

Here’s a few of the items I have on my to-do list for the end of the year:

  • Finish up some big projects at work dealing with Cloud Computing
  • Complete some personal writing projects that’ll show up on this blog, Medium, and on my LinkedIn profile
  • Launch a new version of willkelly.com running on Drupal

  • Take the week off between Christmas and New Years for a little staycation action including a day where I just read books the whole day long

What personal projects do you have to finish before the end of the year?
