Hi Dr. Crowthers, Welcome to my Blog!

Here is my blog! i suggest you read it from the bottom up because it starts back in sept. I customized it so all the blog posts could be viewed on one page but i still have an archive box on the right if you choose to view one month at a time. There were a few times were i skipped some days but in general i hope you can see the effort that was put into the blog especially at the beginning and during December and January. Thank you for taking the time to read my work and I hope you enjoy it!
