Here we go again!
School starts next week! It will be a time of new beginnings. How many of you have said, “This year I’m going to get straight A’s. This year I’m going to turn in ALL my work on time. This year I’m NOT going to get detentions.” It’s almost like New Year’s Resolutions in August! I firmly believe in setting realistic and attainable goals. Just make sure that if you mess-up along the way, you don’t just “scrap” the whole goal and stop trying. It has been said “Don’t measure me by how many times I fall. Measure me by how many times I get up.” Be sure to get up each time you fall. And remember the words of King Leonidas “Never retreat, never surrender.”
Speaking of new beginnings: If you see my bride JoEllen, please congratulate her on her pregnancy. She is cooking our 4th child due in March.
