Last week I posted a 2011 year in review at http://blog.cmdagency.com along with some 2012 predictions. Usually I also review my predictions that I made the previous year, but apparently I didn’t make any for 2011.

Instead I made some resolutions . . .

• Use fewer paper towels and plastic bags.
• Attend more educational and networking events — not all career related.
• Replace the windows in my house (can this be a resolution? I’ve been meaning to do it for three years).
• Donate more time to giving back and good causes.
• Learn to make a good Moroccan chicken tagine.

and the results . . . not so good . . .

We did use fewer plastic bags , in fact we didn’t buy a single bag in 2011. As for paper towels, we’re still using a lot. I did up my networking and spoke at a number of events and conferences. Still have old, cold windows. Outside of a few days at the Oregon Humane Society, I didn’t spend a lot of time volunteering. My tagine needs a lot of work.
