Chores

Today i did KP, garbage, recycling and poo patrol

Projects

Today I helped dad switch the headlights out of the car so that they didn't have the paint chippings on them. So we took out the old ones and put in new ones, to find out they were a different kind and the 3 pronged female lights wouldn't work on the 2 pronged male lights. We dd some sodering and now they go up and turn on but not down (you have to open the hood and hand crank to get them to go down).

Projects

Today I went with dad and drove around town to try and get the wheels put on the car. we found out about chrome rash and that the tiers were balled so in the end we went to Les Schwab and got new tiers and had the wheels put on. It was a lot of driving and misinformation. Then I helped take the old seats out and put the new seats in the car.

Today me and dad went to pick up a check from Jim and I took pictures of the car. That car was hard to dive because the power steering is bad and so its hard to turn also, it has weird brakes and its steering wheel is loose. I told dad he had to put it back after i took pictures because I  didn't want to drive it again

day 1

Chores

I completed KP, Garbage, and Recycling.

Web Development

Today I learned how to design and create databases using MySql. This will help me to collect data from users on my website. the tool i used was PhPMyAdmin.

Reading

I read chapter 6 of "The Other End of the Leash" called "Pack mates" it was about human and dog interaction. after talking with dad i haven't been retaining the information from the book properly as I should. so my new plan is to read it one segment at a time so that i can comprehend the book better. dad and I discussed it and he made a suggestion that I start over at chapter one. 

Projects

I started working on a game project. The idea is to create a game like a TCG / RPG / RTS mix and then hopefully to someday develop it to the point where my dad and I can pitch it to a game company or produce  it on our own. whom I am very excited about the project and look forward to having people play test it. I also had the idea of taking the song "We Didn't Start the Fire" and making a presentation slide about each event in the song, but I haven't started that just yet. I also experimented with Audacity and made a remix to the Nazi zombies CoD BO menu music. I also downloaded acid to see if it would be better and i dint use it at all.

I ended my day by attending Youth group. at youth group we learned about Abram and his land that he was promised that ended up being for his descendant not him.
