this one goes out to the family...

So.. I was inspired. By a few friends, and a few people who don't know I have even looked at their blogs. Thanks to them, who helped me with the aesthetic appeal of this beautiful page. :) It really bothers me that I cannot figure out how to center this image on the top of the page. (If you know how, I'd appreciate the assistance.)

Anyway.

The real reason for this post. Like I said, I was inspired to blog. I think it may be a fun way to keep up with my family members who I rarely see (but love so much). This includes, but is not limited to, the following people:

Mom & Mike, Aunt Cathy, Aunt Edie, Memere & Pepere, little brother Dan, Dad & Linda, Michelle, Jen and Kim

also for my long distance friends Marisa & Megan who are in the southern part of the US. Love you Texas girls!

so i hope you appreciate the shout out. This blog is for you.
It may not be very interesting and I may use poor grammar and punctuation. Luckly this thing has spell check.

[FYI my next post will be about the pro's and con's of Microsoft Word and its tools such as spell check and grammar check. It's ruining my educated life...]

Some things that may be included in the blog:

• the ups and downs of my professional life as a pre-service teacher
• my life as a college student in West Virginia
• Jesus and ministry
• thoughts on different topics (such as Microsoft Word)
• anything that I feel necessary to share with the cyber world ;)

Some things you will not find in my blog:

• anything about my love life... there are just some things I am against sharing with blogspot
• welp... thats all i can think of..

So enjoy.. sorry that was drawn out. I felt the need to preface. **Beth Willis Crouser, if i forget a comma or semicolon or spell d-e-f-i-n-i-t-e-l-y wrong... i apologize ahead of time. thanks.
