Vacation schedual








I'm usually the kind of person who likes to book my vacations at the last minute. This year I think that's going to be hard. My parents want to come over for their 50Th wedding anniversary. Juergen is taking time off to watch the kids while I take my parents (and I hope my best friend Cindy) to Italy for 10 days. In August Nicole and I want to go to Mexico for 10 days to build a house. Juergen is going to need a vacation from all the babysitting. I think our family vacation has to be at the end of the summer. Juergen asked the kids where. Of course we all voted for Thailand. I'm not saying we are going to Thailand. After all, there are 7 of us. It's not exactly a budget kind of trip. On the other hand, if we could all go anywhere on the planet...it would be HuaHin ,Thailand. We just love it there. Even Jessica (who hates to fly) would love to go there. The sun is so good for her. She gets so happy and relaxed. She sleeps so well. It's a beautiful thing to experience. The boys live in the pool. They only come up for air long enough to eat. It also makes them so proud to come from one of the most beautiful countries around. Nicole gets very creative there. She wrote her first children's book there. Juergen looks just like James Bond on a jet ski. Oh, I'm making myself sick! I'll keep you informed. I would probably think more practically about the whole thing if it wasn't so dark and cold outside. That sunshine seems too much like heaven to me. Someone should hide my bank card...

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
