The new car






One of the benefits of working for a large company is the company car. Juergen just got our new car today. It's a Mercedes Viano. I thought I would take a few pictures of it before it gets all scratched up. It is so big (8 adult passengers plus luggage room). I'm not too anxious to drive it! In fact, I think I'll let Juergen drive it until it has it's first scratch or dent. It is so big it should only take a day or two before it's broken in!!! I get my 18 year old Mazda back from the shop tomorrow. Now that's a car a girl can take risks with! A Demolition Derby...no problem!!! Oh, Sarah just spilled a liter of soda on the back seat...no problem!!! Who cares if the kids trash my car...my car is trash!!!

Boy do I hear you on this one. My old car was called the beater because she was sooo beaten up. God blessed me with her for more than 200K miles she was good and loyal. Now I have the new to me car and I love it, but I still haven't bonded with it as much.

Olivia is born

My niece had a beautiful baby girl named Olivia Rose (Beautiful name). Everyone is very excited and thank God healthy! Congratulations to the whole family! Hugs to my sister Shelley who is now a proud grandma for the 2nd time. My sister Dianna has 6 grand kids (I think). My brother and I are too young for such an blessing. At least our kids are too young. I'm going to have to wait to be called grandma. Here is a cool picture I took off Shelley's blog. It shows Eric (the tired but proud grandpa) Lissa with her first daughter Charlotte, and then a sleeping Olivia Rose. 3 generations in one shot. How fast life goes by! How beautiful life can be!

painting the garage

Rick goes home in the morning. I'm sure he will be happy to see his kids again. 3 weeks is along time to be away. The time has passed so fast. It's been really wonderful! So wonderful!!! We may stay up all night, that way he can sleep well on the flight. Hopefully his jet lag will be less this way! Anyway, here is his painting. It turned out more then good! I really love it...just like I love my brother! We will have to do this again soon!

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.
