Juergen's mom

Juergen's mom fell again today. She broke her hip again. She is in the hospital. Please pray for her because she has allot of pain. Juergen called his parents when we returned from Holland last night. They told him they had talked with Waltruds doctors. They don't plan on doing more surgery on her brain. Unless God steps in, she is dying. She will not be able to walk again, or even stand again. The tumors have paralyzed her legs. I've talked to her about it, and I know she does not want to live a long life unable to move. She believes in God. She does not really fear death. I think being totally disabled is a greater fear to her. Juergens dad Richard has carried such a heavy load caring for Waltrud. He is also really feeling the effects of his own age. He is 79 years old. He has to write everything down because his memory is failing. It's difficult to tell if it's the stress causing the memory problems, or something more serious. I just want prayer for Gods grace and peace, as well as a lack of pain. I really can not tell if I should pray for healing or a quick painless death? We all must die. I would wish for many more years with Juergens parents. It seems they have been robbed...or more we have been robbed of them. I do not want to see them suffer. I would much rather see them go.

chicken coop idea

Why not start with an IBC and cut a hole for the door? You could build closed laying boxes into it, and something for the chickens to roost on. Put some straw or saw dust on the floor. You could add vents to the side for air. If it sat inside a chicken run that you can walk into, the chickens could be safe, dry and happy. I have an extra IBC. Maybe this could be my chicken house? I bet I could even plant the outside of it with mud and grass for extra insulation and good looks.

Taking at look at Hotels select

I have the chance to review Hotels select.   https://www.hotelsetc.com/ This is a really interesting travel club.   You pay a fee of about 200 dollars a year to use their very extensive site.   I got this membership free.   It has many deals of mostly hotels, but also rental cars, flights, restaurants and events around the world.   I have been spending days looking at what they offer.   So far what I’ve found is amazing deals on the places many people go.   For example, hotels in Orlando are 50% less than deals you find at booking.com.   Rental cars are often 25% cheaper than Rental cars.com.   And they have a search where you can book a condo for as little as 250 dollars a week just 1 mile from Disney world.   That is 7 nights for 250 dollars for up to 4 people.   The exact location on Airbnb cost 650 dollars a week. If you travel to places like San Diego, New York City and Las Vegas this site will save you a great deal of money.   If you rent cars you will also find it wo

Reading Kingdom

I am very happy to review the Reading Kingdom.   This is an online program that uses a variety of methods to teach reading.   I decided to share this product with my adopted granddaughter Ruth.   Reading kingdom uses a six skills integrative method Ruth only just began to use the program. She is only 3 years old and cannot use the program without help.   But her mom says that she can already recognize words like girl and kids when they are shown on the screen.   Sylvia wrote that she loves the repetition of the words in the program .   That Ruth is memorizing the words she sees.     She will be able to use it for an entire year.   But I expect her to become a very good reader.   And what a great gift to give to any child!   She will have a lifetime love for books.     Sylvia also works with teenage mothers in Uganda.   And many of these women have never attended school.   So she plans to use these ideas to help these young women learn to read. http://www.ReadingKingdom.com what
