Things to worry about
From Lists of Note:
In 1933, renowned author F. Scott Fitzgerald ended a letter to his 11-year-old daughter, Scottie, with a list of things to worry about, not worry about, and simply think about. It read as follows.

Website Goals for 2012
Is it really 2012 already? 2011 went fast but here we are more than half way through January already. It has been an odd January here in Beaver County, PA with temperatures ranging from the 50s to the 20s. I am thankful I only had to shovel the driveway one time so far… hopefully that doesn’t mean a ton of snow is coming in February. Looks like I will have to shovel after tonight’s snow.
Merry Christmas and Happy New Year by the way. I was going to post something cool each one of those days but I was traveling so it never happened. The above picture is when I visited the Casa Grande Ruins National Monument over Christmas break.
Here are a few goals that I hope I can accomplish this year on my website.
1. Work on my writing, spelling, and grammar.
2. Post relevant and interesting content.
3. Expand the space to include some projects from the present and the past.
Writing has always been a challenge for me. I have plenty of ideas and things to share but getting them from my brain to the keyboard in a usable form is where the problem occurs sometimes. I always did better in math and science so this is a great way for me to practice and improve.
Excited for 2012,
