Today is a work holiday, which means that it’s a Day to Get Things Done. What kind of things? Applying generous electronic gift cards to electronic accounts, for instance. 

I’m famous (or infamous) for letting gift cards go unspent. I imagine many of us are; retailers count on it. But this way, that will be harder to do (if all these pronouns make sense). 

Of course, electronic to-dos aren’t the only ones I have today. There are other, more tangible tasks: cleaning and cooking and decluttering … the endless list. Guess I’d better get to them!
