Lot to talk about

Today is the last day for like a month I will be able to write about my day and things that have happened. The rest of the month of February I will be writing about Catherine Called Birdy, so I will have a lot to say today. Last night the snow finally got the better of my phone, the screen turned white and everything. Thankfully we have insurance on that so I have another phone on the way with the same number and everything. also I finished a book trilogy, called the door within. It is so good. On top of that I found out that my two favorite authors have blogs! Donita K Paul has a blog named Dragon Bloggin' and my other favorite author Wayne Tomas Batson - who is the author of the trilogy I just read- has one called Enter the Door Within. also two nights ago I jammed my finger into my hand like the basketball players jam their fingers into the basket ball well let me just tell you it hurts alot... trust me on this you don't want me going into full deatail. theres more though I have TWO tests on Monday... one on Asia-geography and one on the skeleton system-science. wish me luck... Corpus Bones!

The Orgion of Corpus Bones

WOW!!!!!! Okay I have to do this thing for school, and for those of you who don't know me I am home schooled. I am reading this book called Catherine Called Birdie and I have to blog about certain subjects. so here goes...
THE ORIGIN OF "CORPUS BONES"
In the middle ages people would say Corpus Bones as a way of saying oh my gosh or darn. Corpus means 'body' in Latin. so they are really saying as translated in english Body Bones.

Panda Paper

Well what does everybody think of my panda paper, bet you did not know some of the stuff in here... well maybe you did.

giant pandas and red pandas

by katie hiatt
There are two animals called a panda that scientists originally thought belonged to the same family. The Red Pandas and Giant Pandas share some of the same characteristics. Recently they have discovered through DNA tests that the Red Panda and Giant Panda actually belong to two different families. The Giant Panda belongs to the Ursidae family, which is the family that all bears belong. The Red Panda belongs to its own unique family called Ailurdae.
The Giant Panda weighs 154 - 275 lb. Giant Pandas live in mountain forests of China where there is lots of bamboo for them to eat. Giant Pandas are endangered right now. Poaching used to be a problem but now the pandas are not hunted anymore. A Giant Panda eats mostly bamboo. Bamboo is 99% of a giant panda’s diet. Another problem for pandas is the decline in bamboo. Giant Pandas do not hibernate they go south for the winter to try and stay warm. Giant Pandas usually tend to keep to themselves.
Red Pandas are very unique. They look a lot like raccoons. They live in the mountain regions of Asia. Red pandas are endangered. Red pandas are most active at dawn and dusk. Their diet consists of mostly bamboo, but they also eat grasses, mushrooms, and acorns. Red Pandas are about 30 to 60 inches long and 3-6 lb. Scientists and environmentalists are working to keep the panda population from decreasing any further. They have made progress but more work needs to be done to make sure pandas continue to exist in this world.

Phone Story

Two weeks ago Saturday afternoon I was playing in the yard when our neighbors across the street asked us to come over, so when we got back I realized the phone I got for Christmas was not in my bedroom. I looked the house over three times and when I finished still no phone, and if you had a rumor lg you would be so upset, just like I was. The next day after church we had a phone call from our neighbors they found my phone in the snow I sadly went over to they’re house when I got there got my phone and I tested it and it worked. When I heard how it was found I gasped, our neighbors found it right before they ran over it with a snow blower! I am so relieved.
