2011 Resolutions, 3 of 10

A year ago, I blogged about ten resolutions for 2011, and posted the entry on the bulletin board behind my desk so I could stare at it all year long. It’s now time to grade myself on how I did. Next is . . .

I don’t feel so good about my performance on this resolution. By and large, I was less in touch with my family members and closest friends.

It is a small consolation that my intentions were still there, and that I did make efforts where I could to touch base. But here I give myself a D.

Resolution for 2012: same as 2011.
