i upgraded my computer, i took the hard drive from my computer and put it in a fast computer. i had to buy a graphics card and i still need to buy memory (right now i am using memory from the gaming computer. because of the way our dad is working he won't be able to drive us down to church tomorrow so my brother and sister and i are going to go by ourselves. i am really nervus though for some reason, probably because i'v never gone that far from home by my self for that long before. well got to go, see yall.

we went to the beach the other day. we left around 6:00am and went to Long Beach Island in NJ and spent the whole day there. i was in the sun for and hour or two before i remembered to put on sunscreen. i put on sunscreen and then forgot to use more though out the day so i spent most of the day in the sun and got sunburned pretty bad. i was wearing a tank top though so my back didn't get burned but my legs, face, and neck did. i was really red yesterday but I'm not so bad today. my legs and neck were the worst and every time i would bump something or rub my legs they would hurt. other then that we had a lot of fun i was hoping to find a shark tooth but never did, when we got home i found out that you normally don't find shark teeth in NJ. the water was so warm, i wish i thought to bring a thermometer. on the way home we saw a new 2009 Dodge Challenger R/T which was so cool! well got to go, see y'all later!

well i upgraded to a slightly better computer but that my hard drive started acting up but i was able to get everything off that i needed and i formated the drive. insted of just installing windows xp again i decided to try something different. i installed Fedora 9 which is interesting to say the least. we are starting to work on all of the firewood that we have. my brother and sister and i moved a lot of wood and split and stacked it only to find out we did the wrong pile, so we had to move all that wood back. we are working on the right pile of wood now,. well got to go, see ya''ll later

Last summer we went to the beach and my son put lotion on himself--said he didn't need any help. The next day he was sun burned in splotches. There was an area or two where you could see like a hand print. It was one of the funniest things I've seen.

And now your blog is in the Z's. Nobody will be able to find you. So how's driving going? How are all the car projects?

driving is going pretty good. a couple times our dad couldn't drive us to church (had to work the night before) so my brother drove us down to church and then i drove on the way home which is about 45 minets of highway driving. the car projects are going good too. went to u-pull-it and got a anlternatorfor the conversion van, a thermastat housing for the honda, and another fender for one of the other minivans. we also got a horn to replace the one on the honda as it isn't very loud.

well a lot is going on right now. we are in the middle of moving some furnature around and right now we can hardly walk through some parts of the house. we saw Dr David Jeramiah a couple days ago which was relly coolwe are also working on the firewood. we have most of it split and stacked but we still have some mor to do. the chainsaw that we were using isn't running right so the other day i got out two older chainsaws that we have out and worked on them for a little bit. we have two homelite saws and a crasftsman saw. i got the craftsman saw working and we got a chain for itso it is ready to use but the other saw has yellow stuff coming out of the engine so i am going to have to work on that. our main saw is a older homelite saw (this is the one that just started acting up) and it is my favorite. all of the parts are made of metal (all newer saws have a lot of plastic parts). i took the covers off and degreased and cleaned them and put it back to gether. i am starting to get into restoring old chainsaws and stuff. i fired up the conversion van and moved it around the other day. this van is amazing. the gas in the tank is atlest 3 or 4 years old and insted of a car battery it has a boat battery but i charged the battery for for a short time and tryed starting it. it cranked 3 or 4 times and fired right up. i rolled it to the end of the driveway and then pulled it back up with the voyiger and did that a few times to make sure the brakes weren't stuck. i then rolled to the end of the driveway again and drove it back up. the brakes need work as the pedle goes almost to the floor but it seams to be running fine. the exhaust smells really bad (old fuel) but it sounds really cool because it doesn't have a muffler. i was able to get some wheel spin which was fun. my birthday is coming up at the end of the month so that is cool. well got to go, see ya'll later

congrats on becoming a greek/roman god

I don't know much about David Jeremiah, but I catch his radio broadcast "turning point" some times in the car. As far as chainsaws go I would recommend one of these. They may cost a little more than others, but they're generally what the pros use.
