Some truckers are suspected to be avoiding weigh stations, because they are bypassing exceptional weights. Arkansas has made a virtual weigh station to help fix this problem. The money came from a grant that the federal motor carriers safety administration gave them. The federal highway administration praised the technology of it saying it has “the potential to fundamentally change the way truck size and weight standards and regulations are enforced in the United states.” I f all goes well they are hoping to install it in 1-1/2 months.

In science today we learned about ears and DNA, and we did four days of it. I got a bit confused during the ear part because one of our books gives a different name for these three bones in your ear than another one.
In binder work I learned about Pandas. It was pretty fun! I had a bit of trouble with finding the information though. Did you know that Pandas are considered omnivores?

Today we went on a field trip to the doctor for Reed and we also went to walgreens to get his med’s, at walgreens we got some candy. The doctor took a long time, but I got to read a school book and a pleaser book although most of my school books are pleaser books because they are mostly realy good books that I have seen on the shelfs and have been longing to read. School went until almost 6:00 pm today and I am tierd of school, I was hoping to be done by 1:00 pm but a proget was harder than I thought. Mom is starting to make diner right now and I should be done with school by now.
I started Leviticus on my bible reading today. The names are tricky in the bible but the part I don’t like about the bible reading I do for school is how much they cut out, I olny get to read about half a book before they move on to the next one. I know the bible is a bit hard to read but, come on.
The project that took so long was writing and making a Japanese- English dictionary, the front was in color and I had to make a cover, it was all paper but I had to put it in alfabetical order and change Japanese in to English and such. It took about 5 to 7 hours/ way too long.
How is the food at the nashville Rockin’ Grill
by Vwala •
Author Rosemary Boggs of the Arkansas Denocrat- Gazette say’s about nashville’s Rockin’ Grill. The food was ready pretty quickly. The fried mushrooms were good. She liked the cat fish, although the serving size was big.The fries could of been cooked a bit more. The cole slaw was usual for a restaurant. The hush puppies did not taste fresh and were a little doughy. The “smoked” meatloaf did not taste at all like it was smoked. But she went back later, so I think she liked the restaurant.

Today I didn’t get much done, part of that was because mom is watching Reed’s friend today. And also another part of it is that it’s friday and I’m tiered of doing school. Another part of it is that some public schools are out because of the fair today, and teacher parent confrences, well as you know my parents are also my teachers and thay have already done the confrence.
Today in bible we finished colossians, in colossians we read that during Pauls first time in prison someone had been put in prison with him, there where also lot’s of greatings from other people. We also read all of Jude, Jude was Jesus’s half brother, I didn’t know that they had half brothers in Jesus’s time!!!
