I'll do the 2010 final early January!
RESOLVED: Continue the Jen List. This is my monthly "to do" list and keeps me focused. It needs some tweaking, but generally it works well. I may delete this for 2011 lumping it under "be organized" which would also include finances and keeping house. These were actually all successes for the most part.
RESOLVED: Write. Hey, I'm writing now! I finished strong having made some good progress on the autobiography. Although I'm in contact, I've pretty much left the Sunday writing group. I wrote a song "Sound Check" designed to be sung during, well, sound check!
RESOLVED: Show Brain Activity. This was a big success for 2010. I still read alot, including Stephen Hawking's "A Brief History of Time" and Tribe's "The Invisible Constitution". I went through most of the Truman biography and should finish in January. I finished the Philosophy DVD's and await the next set. My next project is to figure out my new digital recorder!
RESOLVED: Travel. The 58 County Pledge is about half done at year end. The 50 State Pledge completion was postponed due to some conflicts in scheduling - I'll finish in either June or October, 2011. I want to go back to Hawaii probably in March.
RESOLVED: Keep house. I completed several major projects in 2010: the deck, the laundry room, landscaping, earthquake supplies, a new water heater, an alteration to my roof, replacing my garage roof, and a major purge of unneeded stuff. Now it should all be routine (or at least less expensive) stuff. I hope.
RESOLVED: Keep up this site. Considering that few people visit it, I've done a pretty good job keeping it up. I'd like to be a bit more creative. Ideas are welcome.
RESOLVED: Socialize. Not enough was done in 2010. Durango was fun and I've met a musician here and a golfer there, but I'm sensing too much time spent inside my house. I need to get out more often.
RESOLVED: Look for the Next Big Thing. Right now my next big thing is my solo music set. I need more diligence, and progress is marginal. Still open to what life may offer.
RESOLVED: Don't get too hung up on resolutions. I'm good at this!

RESOLVED: Play music. As of early November, I've sadly lost some of the drive from my Colorado trips. Guitar and voice lessons went well and I'll do them in 2011. I replaced my digital recorder. I'm still working on a solo set and also on a duo with friend. I finished off the year with a bad cold.
RESOLVED: Cut down on brainless computer games. This is still a problem, not any sustained progress and other things not getting done. I'm beginning to think that I need to get some kind of help. Dang.
