In Bible today I had to make a comic about one of the stories about David in 1 Samuel. I chose David and Johnithin, I don’t know how to spell Johnithins name right. It took a long time, I did stick figures and wrote a little bit of the story. But I had to rewrite some things to have enough room to write what they say, but it is a very shortened version. I showed David and Johnithin talking before, the hiding place, Saul saying David must die, and Johnithin shooting arrows. I know there is a few more parts, but I had to make it shorter. I thought it was interesting that it was Davids idea to lie to Saul, I didn’t really think about it before.

Today we did not do together stuff or Science Experiment. I read about penguins in Wordly Wise 3000. In Code I made a story using guess what… code! Big surprise. I read seven Psalms that David wrote and had to tell what David probably felt while he wrote it.

We learned about Julius Caesar in History. He became the first Emperor of Rome. We read 10 poems about dogs. In science we learned about cells. Cells are named for the houses of monks. Humans have between 50 and 100 trillion cells.

Today was another loooooooong day of school, we learned about wind tunnels and air pressure in science, as well as a way that they made to prevent gasses from building up, it breaks down the molecules in the gasses, then they are pretty harmless. That is a great way to cut down on any greenhouse gasses, and it would help air pollution too. We also learned about cube worlds, it is a little bit odd, but it might be interesting to watch.

Today we went on a field trip to places that I am about to tell you what are, we dropped off donations at savers, did a walmart pick up, went in to get eggs and pledge because it was too late to add those. Went to the library, and got an awesome movie about ballet. Took lunch to dad because he forgot it, realized that we didn’t get him turkey, so he only had bread and an apple, (in hindsight I am really glad that I added an apple) went partly to the store with dad, realized that we had a bunch of refrigerated stuff in the back that had been waiting for a hour, turned around dropped him off and went home to get the stuff in the fridge. Then it was lunch, so we ate lunch, and then did school. I didn’t finish because I had a test in math, (Dad decided that he didn’t want me starting pre-algebra yet) and a big thing for Bible, I have to look up and then write down almost everything I can find about Israel’s enemies, and now it is 8:00 I haven’t finished school and I am going to have to do it tomorrow, (by the way am singing the song from Annie) and I think you are crazy to be reading this because I am crazy and have lost my marbles, literally, I lost almost all of them. And now I am rambling on and on, and I am misspelling words that I am sure I know, and I would be kind of surprised if you are understanding more than half of what you are reading. Adi tried to color Reed’s hair green, but I stopped her, and now that I have bored you with almost every little thing that came to mind I shall wrap it up, figuratively. If I had said that all in one breath I would be red as a cherry right now.

Today we went out in the morning so we did not start school until the afternoon. We did not finish. We had two days of together stuff and a Science Experiment. I had a writing assignment and spelling.

Today we did not do together stuff. We would do science but we did not have any today. Math was about identities and false equations. Mom gave me and Vella’s each other’s spelling tests.

Today is election day. In history we learned about the Aryans. They fleed Russia and settled in India. Buddha was an Aryan. We read eight poems. They were mostly about mice. We learned about the supposed natural formation of protienoids and amino acids. Oxygen is poisonous to amino acids. We had to pick a woman leader off a list of woman from the Bible, they were all supposed to be leaders but only one was. It was Esther. Ester was a Queen while the Jews were in exile. She was a Jew and there was a plot to kill every single one and she helped her uncle save them.

Voting day, wow. I trust that God will take care of our country as it plunges into this misery, He will take care of us if Trump or Hillary is President.
For Bible I got to choose out of several women to read about, I choose Abigail, because my leader in church is named Abigail and I thought it would be interesting to learn more about her namesake. She was the wife of Nabal and then David.
We finally finished our science book!!! I was so happy that for a second I didn’t care who gets to be President, that was until I learned that if Hillary Clinton wins, my world and many others will be turned upside down,
