2011-The Year of the Tornado

Is it presumptuous to say this will be the year I see my first tornado??  Maybe a little, but we all have goals, right?

I have neglected my blog lately, and neglected many other things for many months.  School is part of it, but there have been some other distractions... I'm going to do better at remaining focused on my goals this year.

The end prize... Finishing my master's degree and seeing my first tornado!  Last year, I made a list of goals.. things to accomplish, and this year is no different.  I did EXTREMELY well last year!  Let me share my list with you:

1: Chase more! I will have at least one fairly long distance chase this year. I will chase every single possible opportunity and I WILL NOT miss storms due to school procrastination!

2: FINISH my Master's this year. I'm beginning "official" thesis work this summer, but unofficially start this semester. This means I will be even more stressed, but I'm ready to get finished.

3: Get my camera and learn to use it. (unfinished business from last year!)

4: Fix things... I can't really go into details, but in my head, there are somethings that need fixing.  No funny comments from the peanut gallery!

5: Get our house ready to sell and move to my older farmy type home in the country that I have always wanted.


My list is fairly short this year... Honestly, school will be taking up so much of my time, I'll be lucky that I get ANYTHING done! 

Happy New Year everyone!
