Greetings

Alright! So I've finally got the gears turning again and this train is rolling! And it's not a crazy train! In reference to my prior post, I am feeling rather successful these days once again. I'm working on my Eagle Project, and I'm actually starting to take a lot of initiative when it comes to it. I get up in the morning, do my chores, get some coffee, and get ready for the day to come so that there will be no hickups- although some hickups are natural and can't be helped (double entendre). I'm also keeping up with school and just things to be done around the property. Like today; a tarp canopy that we had had over the boat had totally blown off because of the wind, and half the frame was on the ground. So, in between things to do, I walked over and within a few minutes it was fixed and looking nice. One of the poles is broken though, so it probably won't stay like that for long- my father and I will have to get out to the shop and weld it back together sometime. I'm additionally working on a project that will help our entire household- a pneumatic aluminum can crusher. Basically, I'm making the blueprints for it whenever I find free time, which isn't very often. But when we do have it built, it will save us both time and strength. My dad often picks up cans wherever he can find them and from whomever will give us some, and then hands them over to my sister and I to be smashed. One by one, we put them in the manual crusher and sometimes crush for hours. So, obviously, we'll definitely find the creation useful. Anyway, I really should get going and get to my homework, because it's 8 o'clock on a Sunday night and I haven't even started! Just goes to show how busy I am these days.

You can actually raise some extra money by recycling the cans.
