Tomorrow is Reed’s Eagle Project. Today I helped bake cupcakes for the boy scouts and other people who are helping to have afterward. I didn’t really get much school done today. I haven’t been doing good in math lately. I usually get mostly A+’s but I’ve been getting A’s and B’s this week, I hope my grades go up.

We read an awful poem about twins and they got all mixed up and when he died they buried his brother. In history we read about the joining of Spain. Marriage was a sad thing when you were royal.

Budget, what’s it?

Trump plans on completely changing the budget. Including an infrastructure bill and tax overhaul.  He plans on putting more into the defenses and weapons. But true to his campaign promise he hasn’t touched medicare or Social security so it has been said that he is keeping his campaign promises. Some people say he has done more than most Presidents have in their entire terms in the past couple of months but others have said that he has wasted it completely. Whatever one it is, big changes are afoot.

They made history pictures because most people couldn’t read so learned everything they learned by pictures, even right and wrong. What happens if they made a mistake in pictures and they thought they were supposed to do what the pictures said not the opposite.

English people had some awful history paintings. I call them history paintings because they show history. They had really pretty stained glass windows though. Architecture is pretty intresting, they used pretty colors then. I think simple machines are way more fun than complacated ones. Glassed for farsighted people were invented way before ones for nearsighted ones. I guess they concidered it more important to see up close, or nearsighted ones were easier to get to work.

We just moved into the renaissance in history. We have a whole book about leonardo da vinchi. It started with the fall of Rome. There were more wars in history. We learned about the wars of the roses. So many people were killed just because they were the air to the throne.

Today we read about Saul’s anointment. I am getting tired of history. We are doing last weeks stuff. Today is Passover but we are celebrating it tomorrow. My friend and her family are coming over. Tonight I will get one of my ballet costumes. I am really exited. I wrote a poem about beds inside of a picture of a bed. I also learned about symbols. I had a lot of science questions but I think I got most of them right. I had trouble with critical thinking.

In Bible times prophets were called seers. We learned about Saul getting anointed. Samuel said to Saul, get up so that you can leave. We read a crazy crazy crazy making no sense poem today about a man with two arms, two legs, two feet, and a head with eyes and such.

We learned about acids and bases in science. We also learned about polymers. They are really nice. We learned about the pH scale. Science take forever and is really really hard to under stand and they keep repeating things.

In history we learned about the events we are learning about in a historical fiction book, it is cool to know more about it. It is also cool that they fit together, it happens a lot with Sonlight. We also learned about St. Patrick, they did it a few weeks late. There is a ton of fighting in history, it is over half of it.

In Bible the Philistines attacked Israel. Samuel was judging the Israelites and they won. In science we learned about types of reactions.

We learned about the French civil war. We learned about Joan of Ark, I wonder if God actually sent her. If she was a christian then she sort of died a mytar. If she wasn’t she was still used by god to make history.
