I don't recall being more impatient for a year to end like I wanted 2020 to end. 
I was completely done with 2020. I just found it hard to comprehend the level of stress and disaster that came with last year and just compounded as the months went by.

Pick one - Liked Vs Respected.
I love asking these questions and hearing people's perspective.
