reminders gone berserk

My reminders have taken on a life of their own. One that repeats daily now won't go away. I click complete on my MacBook OS 10.14 and in iOS 12.01. Over and over. The reminder (from yesterday) keeps coming back. Another one-time reminder set for the today comes up twice - duplicates. Recent changes include the OS and both devices and the addition of iCloud Drive on the MacBook. I tried deleting all the "completed" reminders from the MacBook - that caused the App to stall out, spinning beachball of death. Forced quit. then successfully deleted hundreds of completed tasks from Reminders on the iCloud Drive. Restarted both devices, but the problem continues. Suggested fix?

MacBook Air, macOS Mojave (10.14)

I spoke with Apple support and this issue was resolved. Apparently there's been iCloud-related maintenance recently. My move to iCloud Drive seems to have occurred at an unfortunate time, so an apparent interruption left things undone. The recovery was a bit complicated. Apple support was very helpful; the issue was quickly elevated and resolved competently.
