Resume update. It just has that urgent ringing to it, even if it's unclear entirely what update needs to be resumed. RESUME UPDATE.

Taxes - outstanding receipts - Friday morning sounds like the most urgent, and also sounds like you were supposed to have accomplished this two days ago. If you suspect you are going to owe taxes, I would make this the priority, as there would be a late filing fee if not postmarked by Wednesday. If you're sure you're getting a refund, this could be put off for a while with few adverse consequences.

I guess anything that has to do with taxes needs to be wrapped up by Wednesday. x-p

i hate the pressure of To Do Lists.
i prefer living with the illusion that i DON'T have anything urgent to do..or at least to stretch the escapism as long as possible

xp Pleasant Plains: not entirely true. If you owe taxes and you don't have them filed or postmarked by Wednesday, there's a penalty. If you're getting money back, there's no penalty for filing late.

Either/Or, you kinda need to find your bearings on what you're doing with the IRS by Wednesday.

You can put it off with no repercussions if you know you're getting money back.

I'm gonna go for bbq because it is probably a nasty, toxic mess. To-do lists are something I did for a while but they end up leading to a complete reversal of priorities in many people (as well as much anxiety after having just set themselves up for a whole lot of apparently uncompleted objectives). Just because something occupies a line on a list people get all freaked out and assume this task actually has some bearing on real objectives. People who really into to-do tend to treat their own lives as if subject to a shitty middle manager. Just don't start

i like sort out clothes because it makes it sound like all clothes must go to the dry cleaner or your kicking that shit out to goodwill. classy.

taxes, I guess.

I would choose IKEA or buying jeans or couch.
