Thanks to all my other friends and colleagues in the association community for sharing your intentions for 2012. So where have I been? I’ve been thinking! I didn’t make resolutions this year.

Tomorrow my Twitter avatar will don her Santa hat, a sign the holiday season has officially begun. I expect to add about five pounds to my already slightly voluptuous (I like that better than “overweight”) body during this season of abundance and excess. Unfortunately, many people can’t even afford to put dinner on the table, forget feasting.
