2011 Goal Update (December)
This is my twelfth monthly report on how I’m doing with my goals for 2011: Build a dining room table. Build a piano keyboard desk. Build something. I know what I want to build. I have the plans. I have the shopping list. But, sadly, I didn’t have/take the time to do this. Launch twelve new websites. I failed. My December website was bigger than I could finish in a month. Okay...
