• Keep good sleep habits Losing at this one hard. Working from home with the kids means I'm working odd hours, and don't necessarily have to be out of the house at any certain time.

• Plan a family Disney trip and save appropriately I want to splurge on this trip because it'll be a huge experience for the kids, and we likely won't do anything this big again for awhile. My wife is wanting to be more reasonable. Still trying to agree on a goal, but we've started saving nonetheless - beginning with our government handout stimulus check.

• Help my wife make money on Etsy My wife has made masks for our family and for friends. I've told her they're very good (not just spousal support - they are comfortable and look nice), and she should just start an Etsy store. She's very worried about being judged by strangers, so I'm trying to help her work through that and jump in.

• Help my wife make money on Etsy Part of the below basement cleanup is giving her a dedicated space for working. She's getting excited and motivated by it. I'm not sure if she'll have made money be the end of the year, but I believe she'll have started focusing on what she wants to be selling in 2021.

• Transfer my final prior employer 401k into Vanguard I didn't do this one. My former employer's 401k servicer will only send me a check that I then have to send to Vanguard. I'd normally be okay with this, but with USPS being how it is right now, I don't trust it. I'm not getting eaten by fees or anything, so I'll wait until next year.
