Father's Day

 For Father's Day this year I started early. I found a couple of ideas on Pinterest I liked and was able to have homemade gifts for Charles this year. He seemed to enjoy the gifts. I found a website where they had father son matching ties. I ordered them a couple of weeks in advance. I know how Charles feels about getting a tie for Father's Day so this wasn't really a gift it was just a Father's Day outfit. When Charles went into his closet Sunday to get dressed he found his new tie on his tie rack that had a note saying, "Charles' Father's Day tie" He didn't look too thrilled when he walked out of the closet with his tie on. He did perk up a lot more when he saw that Sam had the exact same tie. I happened to have a shirt the same color of their ties so I wore that to church. My dad stopped by on his way to church to pick up his Father's Day gift from me and his grand kids. After church I made Charles' favorite meal Salisbury steak, with his desert of choice Black Forest cake.Afterwards we went to Charles' Dad's house to spend the afternoon.

Rats, kinda

A few days ago I had the idea of wanting to catch a Rat and keep it in a cage as a pet or either try random experiments on it. So I went to Petsmart to see how mush a cage would cost and for the most part they were all near $80 so I decided against that. I went to HomeDepo and spent $20 and built this cage in the picture.


As you can see the cage worked and I caught a mouse. I was trying to catch a rat so I took it out and got rid of it.

Trying to figure out how to bait it was the hard part. I had a spring loaded door but I needed to attract the mouse/rat and make the door close once the animal went in.

Psychology

I decided to take some pictures while I was sitting in class.

This is my Psychology class. I am normally browsing peoples blogs or just looking for something to do on the internet while I'm in class so I don't fall asleep.
